Interesting. The start of the piece:
“Here’s something shocking you might have missed.
At a Muslim charity fun run, held in the heart of London, last weekend, women and girls over the age of 12 years old were excluded from participating.”
I’ve just posted these comments:
“Thanks Matt. You write:
“… we live in a country that believes in the rights of women.”
Sadly, we do NOT live in a country that believes in the rights of men and boys. Anyone who doubts this statement is invited to check out our last manifesto as a political party, two years ago:
Onto the matter you write about today. There are plenty of women-only and girls-only runs and nobody bats an eyelid.
As an example of male rights being assaulted by the actions and/or inactions of the state, let’s consider circumcision / Male Genital Mutilation (MGM) carried out as early as eight days of age by the Jewish community and later (but always pre-pubescence, for obvious reasons) by the Muslim community. What an egregious assault on the human rights of children.
Carrying out MGM is an implicit criminal offence in the UK, being at least ABH and almost certainly GBH under the terms of the Offences of the Persons Act 1861. I sought to bring a prosecution against a (Sikh) doctor and a judge blocked me from doing so.
Matt, I believe Reform UK could land millions more votes by including in its next manifesto men’s and boys’ issues including the family courts which in their custody decisions are so cruel to children, fathers, grandparents, uncles and aunts… so many voters that all the other parties ignore. Isn’t it time you wrote an article about the matter? I’d be happy to supply any input I can. Thanks.”

So while men and boys are denied safety and security in domestic violence shelters, leading to instances of long-term harm and occasional suicide, people are worried instead about a few women and girls not having a run.
It’s not my place to tell people what they should be concerned about but I will say they have their priorities wrong if they think to care about a good society.
