  • Misandry
rdfs:comment
  • Misandry is the complete opposite of Misogny. Misandry is the hatred of men. Misandry is treated in an off-hand way compared to Misogny, which is better known and thought of as to be of more concern. Some misandrists hate men because women were thought of as inferior than men but now women are treated better than before. Despite this, there are those who still hate men and will use the misandry as a justification, but they are no better than misogynists.
  • Misandry is defined as the hatred of, or cruelty towards, men. If someone hates someone else who happens to be a man, that does not make that person a misandrist. Hating men in general or hating someone who happens to be a man just because he is a man is misandry.
  • Misandry is the hatred or dislike of men. It is the linguistic equivalent of Misogyny. In cultural sense, misogyny and misandry cannot be considered equivalent, because misogyny is enabled by and structurally entrenched in our modern Western world society, whereas misandry deviates from the norm. Ergo, the usage of the term "misandry" often constructs a false equivalence between the systematic oppression of women and some individuals' dislike of men.

Ergo, the usage of the term "misandry" often constructs a false equivalence between the systematic oppression of women and some individuals' dislike of men. Misandry may more specifically refer to the hatred of traditional male roles, machismo, or male-chauvinism. Such a label may be problematic as it can be exclusive to men who may not fit into these descriptions such as allies or those that are male identified. Accusations of misandry are often used as a silencing tactic to devalidate or derail feminist discussion (see You're the sexist) or in the straw-feminist caricature. It is also often wrongly associated with radical feminism.
