"Man tax", America style

I remember that there was a same kind of tax, simply labeled differently, proposed in Sweden but shot down by immediate public outcry. In Sweden it was named “man tax” ( I am not sure if this is exact translation from Swedish but this was the name I saw). A tax that was to be levied only against men because of their sin for born into a wrong gender that is guilty of oppression of the other gender until the latter half of last century. You might imagine that in a country where men are increasingly legislated into pee like women, there would be enthusiastic support for such a tax, both from women and men (with feminists` guns behind their back). But instead their was immediate public denunciation of such a sexist legislation. Seems like even Sweden still retains a bit of sanity. But not in America. Even this kind of blatantly discriminatory bill could be phrased and couched in benign terms by the hands of (or the tongues of, or the pens of ) gender feminists.
