Noida cops show gender based discrimination. what to do?

Last time when I went to register a FIR for a cheating case against a woman who had asked me to deposit money in her account for a holiday package in one condition that she would accompany me which she did not, the local cop refused to register FIR and asked me to go to thana for that.
Even though I went to the head quarters and gave a complaint in writing, they accepted it but refused to give any receiving of it or an attested photocopy of it. Even they too refused to register a FIR.
However, later the company offering holiday package refunded my amount with interest and so I ended the matter there only.

Now, few months ago my sister-in-law (brother's wife) and I had a verbal fight for which I called her chusa hua aam and an ugly looking woman, which she really is. She called the cops and the cop without listening to my side of the story and verifying that what is the real matter, grabbed my arm to which I released it by shoving.
Next day not just the local cop came to my house and showed me the FIR which was registered, but he also took me to the local police station and made me wait for 3-4 hours by making me sit there.
Also, when I said that he does not have any evidence that he can take action against me he made a very ridiculous and strange remark. He said that if she complains under IPC section 376 against me then the statement would be enough to arrest me. This was the most ridiculous statement as I had myself mentioned that I called her ugly and chusa hua aam. Even the most perverted man like Shakti Kapoor won't even molest her.
My questions are:
1.) Are there separate laws for men and women in registering FIR where women have the benefit of getting it registered irrespective of evidence they have?
2.) Can the cops be charged for this discriminatory attitude? If yes, then under which section and act?

P.S. I need no replies from the eunuch Sudhir Kumar and her supporters as they reply without any evidence for their statements.
