Seen this on reddit and thought it was an interesting question that largely is not talked about.

It is largely an issue that gets sidelined and hidden because people don’t want to talk about it or accept that it exists. Hopefully this gets some traction to break that marginalisation.

    What do you mean by “misandry”?

    If you mean “women venting about their experiences in a male-dominated world”, then I don’t give a shit. I just try not to be the reason they’re complaining.

    If you mean unrealistic emotional expectations for men, like we’re not allowed to cry or be sensitive or feel any emotion but anger, it frustrates me. I don’t really know how to handle it.

      when people say something to the effect of “all {arbitrary group of people} are {negative thing}” then that is bigotry.
      there are a shitload if problems with a lot of men, toxic masculinity, male dominated subcultures… etc….
      if you act like all of them do these shitty things, then that’s misandry.

      My gf used to say “i hate men” all the time. I have to stare at her for minutes until she realized I am also a man and she changes subjects sheepishly…
