i am tired of feminists using the term misandry to identify themselves, we shouldn’t be giving such a term exposure.
i’m sorry but i don’t recognise misandry as a valid concern, because when men are violated it’s not because they are men, and they cannot be discriminated against FOR BEING MEN when they have been the historical enforcers and benefiters of the patriarchy. men can certainly experience violence too and this obviously isn’t okay: i do not encourage such acts, but automatically accrediting the issue to ‘misandry’ is ignorant. men will hate women and be misogynistic because they believe women as a whole are deficit when this isn’t the case, and they will commit violence against them, like femicide. the term came about in response to feminism, and is often used in anti feminist rhetoric. the patriarchy is still largely prevalent today.
now that we’ve established that, WHY ON EARTH are FEMINISTS giving this term exposure?? they’re doing more harm than they think, and honestly are converting more men to anti feminism because they can point out how ‘oh, this is a misandrist’. once again, misandry is men complaining that women are no longer these subservient possessions they can exploit via unpaid domestic labour and child rearing. misogyny results in the murder and assault of innocent women, a historically marginalised group. men simply cannot be oppressed when referring to the patriarchy specifically when they are, once again, the benefiters and enforcers of said system. misogyny is more of a concern because women haven’t even achieved international legal equality, the bare minimum, yet. social equality is a whole other story.
now to reiterate, violence against anybody is absolutely unacceptable. i will advocate for anybody, no matter who they are, if they have been treated with any less dignity than a human should deserve, which certainly includes male victims. my ideal world is a world where nobody is a victim of evil and suffering by the hands of someone else.
