The First Circuit has rejected the particular social group of “single mothers who are living without male protection and cannot relocate elsewhere in the country.” "The amorphous nature of Petitioner's sprawling group precludes determinacy and renders the group insufficiently particular.

Moreover, exactly what constitutes ‘without male protection’ is an ‘open question’ and possibly a subjective determination."
