Then we wrap back around to the start.

Correct. Murdering a male should be just as illegal as murdering a female.

How is it sexist?

Murdering someone due to their sex is not illegal under this law, if the victim is a male. Murdering a male due to their sex should be no less illegal.

If someone murdered a male due to their sex, would you treat that any differently than someone murdering a female due to their sex?

If perpetrators happen to be of one sex more often, then it means the rates of being charged with the relevant crime will be higher for that sex.

A crime must be treated equally, regardless of sex. The law treating one differently based on their sex is itself sexist. As I stated before, this should have been something that applies to all: ‘murdering someone due to their sex is now a hate crime’.

Exactly. This should have been something that applies to all: ‘murdering someone due to their sex is now a hate crime’.

Having the law give more consideration to one sex over another, particularly with something like murder, is quite sexist.

I hate, hate, hate when I fix something and I don’t know why the fix worked (or what the fix even was…). I want my suffering to result in something learned so it doesn’t happen again.
