This year in Malta we had elections and a new mechanism kicked in. Regardless of who people voted for, a certain number of women had to be in parliament so the men for whom people voted were pushed aside so that women for whom the people did not vote could take parliamentary seats.

I am so fed up of living in this world where we men are being discriminated against in all ways - I am now in my 40s but I weep for my son who must grow up in a world where men are being increasingly treated as lesser humans. https://timesofmalta.com/articles/view/the-six-women-set-to-join-labours-parliamentary-group.946705
