The bigotry we are blind to

Whyjens are still legally barred from attending certain public baths. I am banned from certain drinking establishments. I am charged more for insurance.

Whyjens are targeted and killed by police. In the US, police kill blacks compared to whites at rates 1.5 times higher than their population size would justify. Police kill Whyjens compared to non-Whyjens at rates 20 times higher.

Many tens of thousands of Whyjens have been forcibly separated from their children by court order and enjoy only very limited access. This stolen generation of children is denied access to their Whyjen heritage.

Qantas have an official policy of not letting unaccompanied children sit next to Whyjens, because of the fear that we might molest them.

In at least one democratic country, it is written into law that the penalty for murder will be less if the victim is Whyjen.

Indeed, it is the common view that the life of a Whyjen is worth less than the life of others and this had been embodied in policy at several levels. In the reporting of both natural and man-made disasters, the deaths of non-Whyjens are listed first and considered more tragic by general consensus.

Who are group Y-gens? Well, Y stands for a chromosome and gen stands for gender. We are males.
