The employer has discriminated against the man because he treats that man worse than women who want to do the same thing. That discrimination is because of sex. Because the adverse employment malesis based on the employee to confirm about how men should behave that men should be attracted only to women and not to men. There is no analytic difference between this kind of discrimination and forms of discrimination that have been already recognized by every court to have addressed them. For example, discrimination against men who are effeminate rather than macho. That discrimination is because of nonconformity with an expectation of how men should behave. The attempt to ca
