MPs Simen Velle, Liv Gustavsen, Morgan Langfeldt, and Silje Hjemdal have proposed making the equality and anti-discrimination law gender-neutral. The proposers argue that the equality landscape has shifted since the 1970s, with women now dominating several areas including education, while men face distinct challenges in health, suicide, and violence. They contend that equality policy must reflect current realities and address all people, not just advance women's standing.
