Sorry to take exception to this, but I do.  Can you point to an
article in the Constitution which denies women the same rights as
men?  

The 14th Amendment says:  1.  All citizens born or naturalized in the 
United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of 
the United States.  No State shall make or enforce any law which shall
abridge the privileges of immunities of citizens of the United States...

Article 19 gave women the vote.

Which rights given to men are denied women by the Constitution?

Those advocates of an Equal Rights Amendment would have you believe
that an ERA is the *only* way women would be guaranteed equal rights
to men.  Others believe that current laws already do, if they were
only enforced properly, and that passing laws which aren't enforced
any better than our current ones is a waste of time.
