if you think that the systemic oppression of women as people for the benefit of men is in any way shape or form comparable to "this girl was mean to me this one time", you are a lost cause.

the idea of "misandry" has always been weaponized against women in a misogynistic way by denying them even the ability to express anger at their oppression. women who "hate men" would not hate men if men did not systemically oppress them in every aspect of life. you can say "misandry is real its just not systemic" if you want, but its like saying "all lives matter" has a meaning outside of its use as a racist dogwhistle. not a very serious take. additionally, you cant say that while also comparing it to misogyny, which is systemic.

gender essentialism and bioessentialism are bad, we all agree on this! we dont have to silence women talking about actual issues and experiences in order to do so.

if you are a man and you feel the need to say how misandry totally is a real problem, you have to remember first that you are benefiting from patriarchy right now whether you like it or not

like i said to begin with, the line of reasoning that misandry exists is the same line of reasoning that is used to say reverse racism exists. and last i checked we all know that isnt the case.

this is,,,, this is just a "misogyny isnt systemic" argument

broad generalizations such as "men have systemic power over women" and "men get paid more than women"

next will you say black people can be racist towards white people?

im really just not gonna waste time engaging with bad faith strawman arguments that start with "the dictionary defines this word as"

i hope that life treats you well and that your beliefs take you to great places

misandry doesnt exist for the same reason reverse racism doesnt exist. there is no system of oppression against men, there is no system of oppression against white people. and all misogyny/racism is inherently systemic.

you are confusing a personal prejudice caused by systemic mistreatment with systemic mistreatment. it is an important distinction to make.

men hating women is misogyny because men have societal power over women. women hating men due to discrimination theyve faced is just them hating their oppressors. when men receive lower salaries than women, have lower rights than women, have their bodies policed like women, are treated like objects and property like women, and are raped and murdered like women, then we can say that misandry is a real thing.

not everything is for you, not everything is about you. you can acknowledge that things and behaviors are bad without pretending they are systems of oppression. if you would prefer to quote a dictionary than actually educate yourself then thats fine, but it doesnt make it any more real.

“you being more offended by the mere implication that some of your peers can be bad than by the harm that they actually cause makes you part of the problem”

at first we read it as "cop" not "god"

not all that far off lol
