Women allowed to do police checks on men
I have just read this article about the new 'Clare's law' that may be passed and to be honest even though they have a good reason it is still unfair for men.
I say unfair not to the people it is meant for i.e. the abusive men but the fact that there is no mention that men have this right to check police records on women. This makes it sound like there are no women who have ever done anything like this to a man. Remember the recent stories of women cutting off mens penises? Which I for one would want to know if a potential girlfriend did this in the past!
But like i said they do have a good reason to put this forward but the fact that it is potentially removing any privacy the man has doesnt seem right to me unless they make it available to both sexes. But this is just my opinion.
What does everyone think about this? For? Against? Possible changes?
(and i know its the daily mail but dont just right it off completely)

I'll take a woman police officer checking my genitels any day. 
And it's not the same as the other way around, I imagine less men will care about being felt up by a woman than if it was the other way around.

It's not all that mate..
And i'm not sure you're right about it not being the same the other way around. You fancy getting groped by an older fat woman at work? Obviously you are romanticising potential situations..

Disgusting.
Somebody can never truly reform if one mistake is available for anyone to view.

I really don't agree with this, it sets a dangerous precedant.
I mean, I know a lot of men wouldn't have a problem with it, but we should have equality in this world where we are supposed to be so PC.

My thoughts exactly...Most wont have anything to hide but thats not really the point.

Sorry I mean checking.
This is the problem I have when some women say they want "equal rights". Some of them don't want that, these ones in particular, in fact they want unequal rights in their favour. I won't discuss if this measure is good or bad I just want to know why this women aren't protesting for both sexes to be able to do police checks on their potential partners.
The fact that, as Craig_D says, in this cases, men are guilty until proven innocent disgusts me.

What is she touches your concealed weapon?
****ing successive UK governments; something bad happens and suddenly a change in the law is needed.

This is my issue with it as well, the fact that it is only for women to check on men. Men are abused in relationships as well so why is nothing in place for them.
I agree with clares law but NOT that it only functions for women
needs to be equal rights for both partners.
same needs to go for child protection laws and the sarahs law rubbish. In recent years female pedo's have become increasingly well known by the media. Of course behind the scenes its been known for years they existed just it wasnt accepted in the public domain.
All these child protection rubbish and protect "vulnerable" woman stuff implies that men are guilty until proven innocent. Its so bad with child protection now that as a man, if you work with children/young people/vulnerable people you will automatically have more restrictions placed on what you can do compared to female equivilents. eg many organisations will have policys than men cannot work with woman unsupervised but woman can work with both genders. The excuse being its for "Your" protection from false accusations. Are they therefore implying woman are not able to be victims of false accusations???

This article claims one in four women are victims compared to one in six men. That's a notable difference, but one in six is still easily high enough to allow for men to check too going by the idea that if enough people are at risk then screw the innocent.
