Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 explicitly prohibits employment discrimination based on sex, as well as race, color, national origin, and religion. While age discrimination is prohibited under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, disability discrimination is prohibited under the Americans with Disabilities Act, and sexual orientation discrimination is not explicitly covered under federal law (although some courts have interpreted sex discrimination to include discrimination based on sexual orientation).
