Misandry Exists. It’s not like “Reverse racism” it is a real thing that is equally caused by the patriarchy. Same source, different result. Men participate in Misandrist behavior almost as much as Misogynist behavior. And Women participate too.

After scrolling through, it sounds like you’re seeing TERF ideology and transphobia, not misandry. I laugh when people use that word as someone who’s been called a misandrist by cishet men many times

I don’t get how they can understand that reverse racism is bullshit but they don’t understand that reverse misogyny is bullshit 😭

I like the word transandrophobia sometimes as well (I also dislike when people use "misandry" bc 🙄). People dunk on the name thinking it means ppl are saying androphobia exists, but it explicitly doesn't mean that. It's used to describe transphobia directed at ppl who're seen as transitioning towards masculinity/maleness (like the idea that someone's a traitor of feminism, for instance). & ppl who use it recognize there are privileges associated w/ being seen as a man socially. Good balance imo
