Ministry of Education allows schools to punish only boys by caning up to 3 strokes on buttocks (sometimes even in public with girls as a witness to additional shame) To add on, MSF allows juvenile rehabilitation centres (JRCs) to cane boys up to 10 strokes. Caning for girls (on the palms only) used to be permitted in JRC before they revised the relevant law in 2020. Boys aged 16-18 can be sentenced for brutal caning on bare buttocks by criminal court for juveniles Men aged 18-50 are frequently c…

As a Singaporean citizen, I note that Article 12(1) of the Constitution of the Republic of Singapore establishes the principle of equality before the law and equal protection under the law for all individuals. However, it is important to recognize that Article 12(2) does not explicitly enumerate sex or gender as protected categories. Singaporean law contains numerous provisions that differentiate based on gender. Historically, legal challenges to these provisions have been infrequent and have of…

You only have to pay CMS if you have are the child’s biological father or you have parental responsibility. By parental responsibility, does it mean simply being a caregiver or breadwinner for the child's household? I'm not from the UK, so things are a little different.

He knew he's not the father, and that is why he's not pursuing the maintenance that was paid over the last 16 years. What I want to know is if he knows his name was on the children's birth certs. From what I know, in many jurisdictions, the mother may unilaterally write an unmarried man's name on the birth cert, and if the man is not the father, he has to contest it. In other words, the consent and knowledge of an unmarried man are not required for a woman to formally claim him to the her child'…

In what way am I being dishonest and not responding to what you said? You said that I should be comparing rape with 'penetrative sexual assault'. I told you that no such offence exists under UK's laws. That's a factual statement. I told you that a woman having PIV intercourse with a man without his consent is classified as an offence under s4. That, too, is a factual statement. If you are adamant about your position, you should provide evidence that substantiate your claim.

Also you should be comparing penetrative sexual assault with rape, not just "sexual activity".

It's not just semantics. Whilst the maximum sentence is the same, the sentencing frameworks are different. Rape, which has a starting point of 4 years imprisonment is in practice more severe than causing a person to engage in sexual activity without consent (involving penetration), which only has a starting point of a high level community order.

The court finds guilt, not innocence. Therefore, just because an accused is acquitted does not necessarily mean he/she is factually innocent.

However, rape is a gender-specific offence under certain state laws.

Abetting an offence is akin to committing the offence and severity and liability depends on specific circumstances.

Yes. Marital rape immunity is codified under the Penal Code. It is legal for a man to have sex with his wife without her consent. However, it is also legal for a woman to have sex with her husband without his consent, or with any man aged above 18 for the matter. In India, rape is a gender-specific offence (so is outrage of modesty) and there is no provision that recognise adult men as possible victims of sexual violence.

Ideally, conscription should not be imposed on anybody, be they men or women.

After the couple divorced in 2017, he was the main caregiver of the girl, who lived with him for five days of the week. On April 15 last year, his ex-wife took the girl to Japan. I'm aware that the new order to award sole custody to the father occurred after the mother left the country with their child without the father's consent. Still, if I'm not mistaken, it is legally poss…

At least in the UK, forced envelopment is recognised under s 4(4)(c) of the Sexual Offences Act and it carries the same maximum sentence. In India's case, all sexual offences under the Penal Code are gender-specific, and women are not recognised as possible perpetrators. This includes outrage of modesty (non-penetrative sexual assault) and insult of modesty (sexual harassment).

What's infuriating is that the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act is actually gender-neutral and its protections and criminal liabilities are technically applicable for male victims and female perpetrators respectively. The fact that the boy was held criminally liable for being objectively the victim manifestly demonstrated the utterly pervasive practices of prosecutorial discretion and a warped judicial landscape.

No I'm not joking and there's no need to be rude. So if this is entirely premised on the classification of secondary sex characteristics, do you think it's acceptable/reasonable that -topless women to be liable for charges for indecent exposure? -unwanted touching of men's and boy's chests to not constitute as sexual assault? -taking unconsented, sexually suggestive photos and videos of men's and boy's chests to not constitute as voyeurism, sexual harassment or image based sexual violence?

Indeed it should. Molestation (excluding rape) and voyeurism laws are actually pretty gender-neutral in most developed jurisdictions. Nonetheless, authorities and prosecutors often adopt a gendered approach to this kind of offences. It's a small wonder, since that's a reflection of general societal expectation. The modesty of males are often sidelined, and we witness it in every facets of life. For instance, take a look at how medical institutions handle male patients compared to female patients…

There is a lack of contrast to its counterpart, 'toxic femininity'. More often than not, they are of the same matters, just seemingly from different perspectives.

Section 177 or 182 may be applicable for this case. However, punishment will likely be relatively light, and that's if the prosecution even decides to pursue the case. In 2019, a domestic worker was sentenced to a mere 3 weeks for falsely accusing her employer of rape.

I'm not from the US so pardon me if I'm ignorant of its legislation. If I'm not mistaken, there are generally two judicial systems, namely in the form of state laws and federal laws. Most states don't even have rape in their legal provisions. I'm not sure about how the FBI classifies and tabulates female rapists statistics.

Notwithstanding the ambiguous definition, I believe that the offence of rape does encompasses 'made to penetrate' scenarios. Take a look at cases such as this and this, where the female perpetrators were charged with rape. Nonetheless, I do think the current definition is poorly worded. Envelopment should be explicitly stated. Even changing the phrase 'oral penetration by a sex organ' to 'oral penetration involving a sex organ' is helpful.

Not an isolated case. I've witnessed plenty of public caning back in primary and secondary school. The thing is, only boys are liable for caning, as the law explicitly prohibits corporal punishment for girls. In general, boys were generally punished harsher compared to girls, and some conducts are seen as harmful or even harmless if done by girls, such as sexual harassment and initiating fights with boys.

even if the cancer originates in the foreskin and has yet to spread to other areas, that doesn't necessitate removal of however much penis you can fit into a gomco clamp. It doesn't, and it shouldn't be. I believe that any 'medically necessitated' surgery should aim to remove as little of bodily tissues as reasonably practicable, unless with explicit and informed consent of the patient to conduct otherwise. This does not just apply for both MGM and FGM but every other types of surgery.

I think equal and not transferable parental leave is the best scenario for everyone involved. Could be wrong, though. Both systems have their pros and cons. Having partial transferable parental leave may reinforce caregiving expectation to some extent but it sure beats the current policies in most societies, where mothers are given more leaves by default. Conversely, a strictly non-transferable leave system may be too rigid and not serve the best interests of families. For example, if by nature …

The reasoning now was because it is unsanitary. Utterly reprehensible. A rudimentary hygiene regime is more than sufficient to prevent any excessive build-up, not to mention recent studies have found that smegma has no carcinogenic associations. Moreover, women in the US are more likely to develop smegma build-up compared to men due to high circumcision rates. If sanitation is the overarching concern, how is FGM not nearly justifiable?

Depends on the jurisdiction. In most Western countries, the laws on alimony are gender-neutral. Husbands too, are eligible to file for alimony.

Some studies have indicated that sexual violence is more commonly experienced by female prisoners compared to to male prisoners, and most cases are perpetrated by their co-inmates.

It's a common trend among Commonwealth/ex-Commonwealth nations.

AFAIK, in the US, the federal definition of rape has been gender-neutral since 2013. However, the CDC has maintained its use of gender-differentiated terms for sexual violence, namely 'rape' when women are subjected to non-consensual sexual intercourse by men and 'made to penetrate' for the reverse. The National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Survey (NISVS) is one such example.

As far as I know, it has always been gender-specific. In fact, the latest definition of rape has been expanded to include the possibility of male victims (by male perpetrators). In the not so distant past, only the forceful penetration of a penis into a vagina constitutes as rape. Currently, female on male rape (made to penetrate) is governed under "Causing sexual activity without consent ( penetrative)" under UK's legislation.

In the UK, rape is narrowly defined as the penetration of one's penis into the vagina, anus or mouth of another without the latter's consent. Therefore, this is technically not a case of rape. It is however, a case of assault by penetration.

In many aspects, liberty is inversely related to protection. It is true that collectively, women are subjected to much more scrutiny for baring their chest, and in some countries doing so may even be deemed as a criminal case of indecent exposure.

In Singapore, the original s 377 which criminalised any sexual intercourse "against the order of nature" was repealed in 2007. This essentially legalised all forms of consensual homosexual behaviours between females. However, by virtue of its child statue that is s 377A, the male counterpart remains technically illegal. Interesting (and blatantly discriminatingly), s 377 was repurposed to criminalise necrophilia acts. However, this section is also gender-specific and applies only to men.

Among many other reasons, it's because language matters. Even linguistically, the term 'feminism' denotes the notion of gender equality via the female point of view, as well as the propensity to emphasise on women's issues. To put things in perspective, the term 'masculism' is technically synonymous with the former, but from the male perspective. Do you personally purport masculism to be the equivalence of feminism?

Yes, and that's what the whole thing is about. In Singapore, rape is a gender-differentiated offence. Whilst the 2020 law revision allowed males to be considered victims of rape (by other males) and females to be perpetrators of sexual assault, the fact that only males can rape is retained. This consequentially meant that females cannot be charged with rape, no matter the gender of their victims.

Postpartum depression is not a gender-specific condition. It is prevalent in both mothers and fathers at approximately 15% and 10% respectively. It may be a mitigating factor depending on its severity but by no means a justifiable cause for such crimes. Similarly, men generally experience stronger sexual impulses and not weaker self-control. Does that mean that we should be more lenient with men who commit sexual atrocities?

equality is at least codified in law. Not with regards to gender equality.

Some examples of inequality in Singapore. Laws Men do not have the rights to spousal alimony (unless they are incapacitated and unable to maintain themselves) Single men do not have the rights to adopt girls, whilst women can adopt children of either gender. Men cannot be raped by women, only by other men. Any sexual act between homosexual males is a criminal offence. This does not apply for females. Only males can be punished for necrophilia acts. It is a crime if a man covertly compromise cont…

Similar stats are purported for men as well. At least 1 in 6 MEN have been sexually abused or assaulted. Many of these figures are grossly misleading, if not objectively untrue. The statement "1 in 6 are raped" denotes that 1 in 6 women experienced completed rape. However, many (not all) of such surveys and unofficial studies (which are primarily where this figure is derived from) uses arbitrary definitions of rape that are not in line with legal terms. Many times, the word "rape" is used to lum…

Why Women Do Not Wish the Suffrage IN 1895 the women of Massachusetts were asked by the state whether they wished the suffrage. Of the 575,000 voting women in the state, only 22,204 cared for it enough to deposit in a ballot box an affirmative answer to this question. That is, in round numbers, less than four per cent wished to vote; about ninety-six per cent were opposed to woman suffrage or indifferent to it. That this expresses fairly well the average sentiment throughout the country can hard…

A friend of mine was falsely accused of sexual assault back in high school (he was eventually found factually innocent when the girl confessed that it was a misunderstanding). Till now, he is subconsciously apprehensive of any close contact with female strangers. What's interesting is that up until I point this out he is genuinely unaware of this behaviour of his. When taking the train, he has this tendency to select the carriage with fewer ladies and with vacant seats. This is often not possibl…

Personally I will not employ such a sweeping statement. Most women and men are largely rational and reasonable people. However, the system and narrative are so utterly corrupted and vile I sometimes wonder if its all an intricate joke. In different ways and of varying extent, the implications are detrimental for the entire society, men and women alike.

Indeed. I'm personally not a gym user but I will not be giving some establishment any more of my dime if I'm paying the full fee to use half the facility whilst being regarded as a default menace solely due to my inherent possession of an appendage.

Although this is indeed gender discrimination, I am not inclined to prescribe how a private establishment should run its business. One can simply choose not to continue patronising the establishment if they are not satisfied in any way. Nonetheless, to be competitive and viable, the fee I pay better be relative to the square footage, equipment and amenities allowable to me.

I believe rape should simply be defined as non-consensual sexual intercourse, regardless of the gender of the victims and perpetrators. Its scope should encompass forced/coerced/criminally misconceptualised virginal, anal and oral - penile penetration, as well as penetration of the virgina, anus and urethra (currently not recognised) with any other parts of the body or with any objects.

Not really familiar with this case but the term "wife beater" clearly implies one-sided abuse. This is notwithstanding the assumption that he had indeed physically hurt her, which is rather dubious in the first place given the evidence presented. I have strong reasons to believe that the same perception will not stick had that genders been reversed. It will be truly vile and impossible for a battered wife to be called a 'husband beater" for retaliating against her abusive husband, as it should b…

Much kudos to this great man. May all these children thrive with him. Unfortunately, this reminds me of one blatantly sexist law my country and some others, such as New Zealand has, where single men are not eligible to adopt girls, solely because they are male.

Non-medical circumcision refers to a procedure in which the foreskin of a boy is removed without medical justification. In this case, instead of promoting the child's health, it is a matter of the religious and cultural traditions of the child's parents. Even if such a legislation come to pass, the non-medical limitation can seemingly be circumvented by simply justifying circumcision with 'hygiene reasons', which are arguably aligned with "promoting the child's health".

In my opinion, the dude is clearly the unreasonable party. Even if his intention is to execute his duties, the approach employed was invasive, whimsically escalated and resulted in wasted law enforcement resources and brewed unnecessary acrimony. I presume OP was trying to imply that the perception adopted will be different if the roles were reversed, which unfortunately, is both statistically and anecdotally true.

Also, women are more biologically more important than men are when it comes to breeding and creating life. If one is to employ such reasoning, then polygyny should not only be appropriate but desirable, and policies should be implemented to legalise and facilitate such a phenomenon. This reasoning is true and grounded in biological facts, but its utilities are only relevant in very exceptional circumstances, such as in dire times of apocalyptic events, where the swift replacement of manpower is …

Although both sections have similar maximum punishment, the sentencing banding may differ. A rapist sounds much more sinister than a sex offender, and this not only carries inequitable sociocultural connotations but more importantly it may influence sentencing, especially in cases of jury sentencing. The reluctance to call a spade a spade perpetuates the notion that sexual victimisation committed by males is inherently more devious and vile compared to its counterpart. It also reinforce the perv…

One woman said "she shouldn't have to pay her able bodied ex" ! Unfortunately that's exactly the case for my country. Legally, and unlike wives, only incapacitated husbands who cannot maintain themselves can apply for alimony. It does not matter that a man may have foregone his career to be a househusband whilst his wife progressed smoothly through hers and is the sole breadwinner.

they use professional drivers in the stats as well Oh my! I did not know that. That seems way out of context. Driving in professional settings bears no relevance to ordinary driving, not to mention the hazardous nature and high density of men in that field definitely skews the figures against male insurees.

I do not have any stats readily available but I guess you are right. Anecdotally, women may be involved in more vehicular accidents but collectively these accidents are more trivial and incur less damages and cost. Furthermore, many of such accidents only involve the drivers themselves (first party nature), such as scrapping the sides of their cars in multistorey car parks or puncturing their tyres from mounting a kerb. Most drivers do not submit claims for these accidents, nor are most of these…

Pardon me for not having much knowledge about your country's policies.

Gender rating insurance in areas where men are worse off is still legal. Sorry I am not familiar with US policies. Does that means that gender ratings are applicable for products like life and car insurance? That would be outright selective prejudice, not that its something new anyway.

Indeed. Ideally, all conceivable factors of the individual can be factually assessed. However, it is virtually impossible to do so. It is just like hospital insurance, where everyone pays the same premium (withstanding NCD and other minor perks for not claiming) but the premium fluctuates annually accordingly to collective claim prevalence. It does not matter if one has any hospitalisation claims. Hopefully, both the advances of technology and development of forward-looking policies can render i…

This is largely based on empirical statistics rather than stemming from gender discrimination. Men generally have a shorter life expectancy, undertake more precarious occupations and lead riskier lifestyles. The same is true for vehicle insurance. Statistically, women are more prudent drivers and are less likely to be involved in accidents. While this is unfair for men who deviate from their demographic norms and present a lower overall risk, women also face this unfairness. Health insurance are…
