Discrimination
Health
In Australia men's health research receives one quarter of the funds of women's health research despite men having a higher mortality at every age. [1] In the UK the difference has been as high as 8:1.[2][3]
Legal
Bodily Autonomy
In most nations today women gain the right to bodily autonomy at birth. In an increasing number of nations this right is actively enforced for girls. Boys eventually gain this right too but the exact age at which this occurs isn't clear. We do know that boys in the United States still do not have this right at the age of five.
Criminal Justice

Paternity
In the UK inclusion of the father's name on the birth certificate is subject to the mother's approval. Further, the father may not register his own child.[4]
Women in most nations have the right to choose not to be a parent. This right exists through the option to have an abortion, through the use of adoption or through the use of safe haven drop off points. Many jurisdictions allow the mother to use any of these options against the wishes of the father. In contrast, for men, consent to sex is consent to parenthood.
