That's a little overly simplistic. Some of those things are protected in certain situations, but not others. To my knowledge, in most places sexual orientation is NOT protected. As for disability, it depends on what disability. There's also different legal tests for discrimination on the different categories. IIRC, race discrimination has the most stringent tests for being allowed, followed by gender then nat'l origin.
