What biases against men do you refer to?
How do you feel the ERA would help?
I could get into the bias in the family courts, bias when women commit violent crimes etc., but I can't think of any where men aren't among those enforcing the bias.
How do you feel the ERA would help?
It would give men a tool to fight discrimination with, after all equal rights, but they would have to be willing to use it. Given what I've seen over past few decades, I doubt it.
A generic ERA would consistently be interpreted as applying only for the benefit of women.
To address discrimination against fathers, there would need to be something very specific, ensuring the rights of fathers.
I support that.
That may have been how male judges interpreted it, but the actual law would have barred any difference in the law between men and women. That was why it wasn't passed.

Such a law would never be passed. Whether you're talking about enforcing equality under the ERA or special laws that prevent discrimination against men, you're faced with the same set of problems. Getting men to fight for those laws, and getting male judges and male police officers to enforce them.
Men shell out billions a year on prostitution in the US alone, and next to nothing in support of the MRAs who are fighting a largely unfunded and unsupported fight for their rights. Until men decide that their equal rights and justice for their sons are more important that the services provided by hookers, nothing will change.
The left never stops.
Our side should make movies about them. They make a lie about Roger Ailes, why not about Matt Laurer, Harvey W, Charlie Rose?
