A person (usually a man)
that hates women. A misandrist is a person (usually a woman) that hates men.
I find the term
‘misogynistic’ to be often mis-used by feminists. Disney films have been
accused of being ‘sexist’ and ‘misogynistic’ when I see nothing sexist about
them. How is a man wanting to rescue a woman a sign of woman-hating? Clearly
it’s the opposite. In my post about my favourite Disney women, I
discuss that most of the Disney women are strong characters that
have their own values and dreams.
A man that holds open
doors for women, goes out with women, sleeps with women, loves his mother,
marries a woman, and raises female daughters is clearly not a misogynist. (No, Trump is not a misogynist, he's just outlandish). A man
that despises women and sees no use for them other than sexual
pleasure (or maybe not even that) IS a misogynist.
An example of a misogynist is the well known blogger and pick-up artist Roosh V. This man does NOT care
for or respect women. His views on women are
that women are sex objects that should be seen and not heard. When
you have no respect for someone or something, you're unlikely to treat them justly. I
don’t like spiders and take no shame in killing them. To those who don’t have a
problem with spiders, they would see killing them as awful. I LOVE cats, and
would never strike or kill a beautiful kitty.
Enjoying the company of
women, having female friends, enjoying sex with women – these do not make
someone a misogynist. Most men don’t ‘hate’ women. Why would they marry women
if they don’t like them? Why would they get so pissed off if someone cussed
their mother?

Once I was having a
conversation with a girl that’s a radical feminist and she said ‘misandry isn’t
real.’ This is the kind of nonsense some feminists believe. It’s as dumb as
saying ‘black people can’t be racist’ or using the term ‘reverse racism.’ Of
course women can hate men. Saying ‘don’t
cook
dinner, starve a rat today’ is a form of misandry as its dehumanizing men
and calling them ‘rats’ that don’t deserve food. (Unless your man actually was
abusing you and treating you badly and you turn around and decide to stand your
ground to empower yourself. That’s different, but just because you’ve been in
an abusive relationship, doesn’t mean that ‘all men’ or ‘all
women’ are full of shit).
I think the term
‘misogynistic’ is at times mis-used. It’s part of this bullshit identity politics that claims everything is ‘sexist’.
