(1,053 posts)"In fact, I think the terms misandry and misogyny are disruptive and inaccurate,
as very, very few people in this word hate a specific sex." I say, "very few."
I do not anywhere say there are no misogynists in the world. As I do not say there
and no misandrists. What I do say that the terms are more or less meaningless in
meaningful discussion about society (unless your intent is not meaningful discussion).
There is no secret group of misogynist manipulating the world to benefit men. What
there is, is a system of cultural norms/expectation, and a whole world of normal people
who either unwilling or unable to change the status quo.
If you see a misogynist, call them out on it, but don't use it as a blanket term. The OP
essentially argues the same thing for misandry.
