You don’t know what the term “protected class” means, and you should probably stop using it.

“Woman” isn’t a protected class, “sex” is. “Christian” isn’t a protected class, “religion” is.

To be fair, not all protected classes are symmetric:

Veteran status and age over 40 are notable examples; you are absolutely permitted to discriminate against non-veterans and against people under 40.
