Discrimination against men based on gender has been observed in the health and education sectors due to stereotypes that men are dangerous to women and children. In the legal system, men on average receive higher rates of incarceration and longer sentences than women for similar crimes.
Research on discrimination against men has been limited, and the topic is little discussed due to cultural biases. Equality measures often pay little or no attention to discrimination against men, which is perceived as morally less serious than discrimination against women.[1]
