Misandry – which is the hatred, distain, or prejudice against men and boys, is pervasive. I know your local finger-wagging gender equality advocate will smugly tell you otherwise; likely stating that such a phenomenon is “trivial”, and a distraction or byproduct of misogyny, but I encourage you to think again. Because misandry is no less prevalent than misogyny. Yes. Whether its the shameless calls to ‘k*ll all men’, the normalisation of violence by women against their male partners, the sheer ignorance toward men and boys issues, or the openness with which the world routinely and needlessly circumcises baby boys – misandry is real. It’s in our judicial system, where men face higher sentences for the same crime. It’s in our educational system, where boys are marked lower for the same work. It’s in our domestic violence industry, where male victims are left out in the cold. And it’s in the tears of fathers, routinely deprived of their children in custody battles. It’s in the words of a million SJWs who gleefully prefix ‘man’ to a dozen negative behaviours, personal defects, or sitting positions. It’s in the side eyes and paranoid whispers that swim around fathers, innocently taking their child to the playground. And it’s in the very DNA of gender equality advocacy itself; those who spitefully insist on naming everything bad in the world after men, that dub masculinity as “toxic”, and yet ironically tell us that ‘misandry doesn’t exist’. So where have you seen or experienced misandry, and why aren’t we talking about it? #mensmentalhealth #malesuicideawareness #guytalk #mensissues #misandry #misandryisreal
