"Mr Berridge said his organisation was planning to challenge the new law under the European Convention on Human Rights, arguing that it discriminated against a lifestyle choice."
The Burqa for men. This pisses me off. The Justice System, Politicians and the Government no longer deserves our respect.

Apparently discrimination against men isn't a matter of any interest to "Human" Rights Commissions.
It's noticeable that the latest wave of sexual offences law "reforms" are homing in on the male genitals as the site of all sexual evil. Another example is the redefinition of rape as being doing something with a penis that a woman doesn't like -- forcing someone to have sexual contact is no longer the main cause.
The pretense of legal gender equality is slipping.

This is nothing new; in the US, many judges have long exempted women from indecent exposure laws on the grounds of anatomical issues etc. in spite of equal protection laws.
Otherwise, England is a fairly feminist nation when it comes to downplaying equal rights for men.
