Do you see all this debate over “women’s spaces” and none over men’s spaces?
There’s a line from a 1976 film that still echoes today:
“I’m as mad as hell, and I’m not going to take this anymore!”
In the movie Network, an exhausted news anchor—fed up with lies, corruption, and public apathy—loses it live on air. He tells people to open their windows and shout. And one by one, they do. Ordinary people yelling into the night sky because the silence had become unbearable.
That’s where we are again.
This image says what too many still won’t admit:
Men’s rights don’t change state to state. Women’s rights do.
That’s not equality. That’s injustice with legal backing.
So yes—
It’s time for more of us to lean out the window.
To raise our voices.
To refuse to be quiet just because some people are still comfortable.
Women’s rights vary by state in the U.S., especially when it comes to bodily autonomy, reproductive healthcare, safety protections, and civil rights enforcement. While the U.S. Constitution promises equal protection under the 14th Amendment, in practice, many critical rights for women are determined at the state level, leading to dramatic disparities.
⚖️ Areas Where Women’s Rights Vary by State:
1. Reproductive Rights
After the overturning of Roe v. Wade in 2022, abortion laws are now controlled by individual states.
Some states allow abortion with few restrictions; others have total or near-total bans, even in cases of rape or incest.
Emergency contraception, medication abortion, and insurance coverage for reproductive care also vary greatly.
2. Access to Healthcare
Access to maternal care, contraception, and gender-specific health screenings (like mammograms and cervical cancer screenings) depends heavily on state Medicaid expansions and local provider availability.
Some states restrict or defund clinics that provide women’s health services.
3. Protections Against Violence
Domestic violence laws vary: some states allow stronger protections, broader definitions of abuse, and quicker access to protective orders.
Marital rape is still not fully criminalized in all states.
Laws on stalking, harassment, and coercive control vary widely in strength and enforcement.
4. Workplace Rights & Pay Equity
While federal laws offer a baseline, states vary in how well they enforce equal pay, protect pregnant workers, or support paid family leave.
5. Child Marriage & Female Autonomy
Some states still allow child marriage with parental or judicial consent—disproportionately impacting girls.
Laws about a minor’s ability to seek healthcare, therapy, or legal protection without parental involvement vary by state.
🛑 Meanwhile, Men’s Bodily Autonomy Laws:
There are no state-by-state laws controlling a man’s ability to make medical decisions about his own body.
There are no criminal laws requiring forced parenthood, sterilization, or reproductive decisions based solely on sex.
✊🏾 What This Means:
A woman’s rights, dignity, and autonomy are not guaranteed equally across all 50 states.
But a man’s are.
That’s not just an oversight. That’s state-sanctioned gender inequality—and it directly contradicts the spirit of the 14th Amendment’s Equal Protection Clause.
For review: Generations of women fighting power hoarders and debating over women’s rights, women’s wages, women’s opportunities, women’s reproductive rights, women’s spaces, women’s safety, child safety……
Meanwhile men not worrying about none of this because no one is regulating their bodies, rights, opportunities, spaces, or safety, the way they are ours………
