    I’ve have an example of this that happen recently. It was on a post about Spain (iirc, might have been Italy) making killing women because of their gender a hate crime.

    People were arguing that men should receive harsher punishments for killing women because of their gender than women killing men because of their gender.

    Which isn’t equality since criminal prosecution should be on a case by case basis. It should be a hate crime to kill anyone because of the way they were born. The fact that women are more often victims just means that more men will be prosecuted than women, but the sentences should be the same.

    There’s also the crazies who think that any time a woman has sex with a man, the woman is being raped.
