Maybe no one has replied to your thread because this word does not exist? :dunno: No kidding, in a way, it doesn't. I use Firefox and the word "misandry" wasn't in the browser's dictionary until I added it. But misogyny is. With "sexism" being 100% linked to misogyny and even the mention of misandry being claimed to be a form of misogyny, we are now, in my opinion, in that period spoken about in Orwell's 1984.
In college I took a sociology class called "Logic and Reasoning". I admit, I took it just to get some credits and an easy grade (sosh classes were notorious for being easy "gut" classes). But I learned SO much from that class and it's stayed with me for all these years. One exercise that the professor took us through was called The Substitution Game. You take any situation, incident or event that involves someone committing an act or being the victim of an act, and gauge how people feel about it or react to it - record those results. Now, you take the exact same incident, but you substitute in a person of a different race, religion or gender (whatever factor you're attempting to study) and place them in the role of the perpetrator or the victim - now compare this new set of results to the prior set. For the people who were honest while playing the game, we learned a hell of a lot about ourselves and just how hypocritical we actually were. What we found was that how we felt about an incident often depended a LOT on who/what the perpetrator or victim was. Once we substituted in a member of some other group for the perpetrator or victim, the feelings and reactions changed. I learned a lot about myself from that exercise and I still use it. So when I catch myself (or others) rationalizing the reasons for their hypocrisy, I sometimes feel obliged to point it out. I'm not without sin. Like every other human, I have my biases too. It's just that I can usually recognize that sexism, racism, religious intolerance, etc. come in more that one flavor.
But in these days of Newspeak political correctness, you're not supposed to use exercises like that. You're supposed to go with the socially acceptable flow, which dictates that there is only one flavor of sexism, racism or religious intolerance. So constant complaints of misogyny are in and even the mention of misandry is out. The newest "in" thing with the feminist crowd is something called "ironic misandry". With it, radical feminists use hyperbolic misandry in a weak attempt to paint men who don't agree with their positions as whiners and closet misogynists. In short, they take the most extreme positions and words ("I look forward to the day when all men are illegal", "I bathe in male tears", "I castrate, therefore I am", "Kill all men", etc.) and try to say that because they aren't that far gone, they're A-OK. Disingenuous reasoning or not? Well, let's play the old substitution game and find out. Let's say that instead of a feminist woman we have a White male in our example. And instead of addressing sexism, he is addressing racism. How would these play? "I look forward to the day when Negroes are illegal", "I bathe in Blacks' tears", "I lynch, therefore I am", "Kill all Blacks". To use the same tactic used by the feminists, anyone who would complain about the use of these (offensive) phrases would be told that they just don't get the joke. Would Time magazine, Slate and a host of others be running to his defense as they have with ironic misandry? According to Jessica Zimmerman of the Misandrist Book Club: "The men who get annoyed by misandry jokes are in my experience universally brittle, insecure, humorless weenies with victim complexes." Again we play... "The Blacks who get annoyed by racist jokes are in my experience universally brittle, insecure, humorless weenies with victim complexes." Would it work for David Duke? Would it work for a man who ran the same game on women? If not, why not? :dunno:
Newspeak is about training people to accept certain words, phrases and thoughts as complete, unquestioned truth... and reject others as hateful lies, unworthy consideration. Exactly as Merriam-Webster states, it is designed to diminish the range of thought.
So the word misandry does not exist. It's now been banned. And if Sheryl Sandberg, Condoleeza Rice, Beyonce, Anna Maria Chávez (CEO of the Girl Scouts) and other feminists get their way, the word "bossy" (and any other hurty words that they don't like) will also be banned. Ban Bossy

i agree with you but if you go into any one of my college textbooks virtually all of the citations are leftists. if i dared to speak my mind in class i would be failed or kicked out of school this is bs of the worst sort. tax dollars are going towards this crap, and at larger schools programs are cut fees are raised for tenured professors. Feminism offers nothing but censorship and coercion if a man spoke out at work he could be fired or divorced this is getting out of control

This goes back to my days in college too. It was a poli-sci class and we were not assigned text books. Were to read The Washington Post, The NY Times and the LA Times. The professor was an arrogant little prick from the land of Dixie and all he talked about was what liberal columnists wrote that week. Any time he called on you for your opinion, you were shot down if it challenged his or their beliefs. Agree with him and it was high praise before the entire class. Believing there was room for debate I thought that I would at least get respected for my opposing opinions. Not to happen. A few weeks into the class he had us write a few pages about a few topics. We get our papers back and while everyone had comments written throughout their writings, mine was different. A red X on the front page corner to corner. A red F underlined 3 times and the word "nonsense" next to it.
Having little time left to withdraw from the class I ran to the office and got a withdrawal form. Came back to the class while he was in mid-pontificating.
"Thank you for showing up Mr. Bob"
"Fuck you and fuck your class. Sign my withdrawal form so I can get out of here."
"I'd be happy to."
"Not as happy as me."

the unabomber talked about this in his book industrial society and its furture about how college students are not the ones to blame. Its the Professors that shove their beliefs down the pupils throats
12. "Those who are most sensitive about "politically incorrect"
terminology are not the average black ghetto-dweller, Asian immigrant,
abused woman or disabled person, but a minority of activists, many of
whom do not even belong to any "oppressed" group but come from
privileged strata of society. Political correctness has its stronghold
among university professors, who have secure employment with
comfortable salaries, and the majority of whom are heterosexual, white
males from middle-class families."

ide also like to say that when i was in high school the atmosphere was that if you didn't have a high gpa good standardized test scores and were going to get into a good school your were due for a bad life I'm not saying education is bad but in high school theres pressure on students. I feel this has something to do with the problems society at large faces

Everything about this post proves your education was shit. You should get a refund.
it prove nothing what it proves is that if you are majoring in something besides math chemistry foreign languages etc then its a waste of money and time thats what it proves. Getting a degree in History will teach you that after you graduate you should have made better decisions in picking courses.

It's been a long time since I was in college. But I have no doubt that that is still generally true. I went to a rather conservative university and I majored in a subject that had more conservative professors and students. But in venturing out into other subjects, yes, there was a more liberal leaning to the approach and views. But the class that I learned to play the Substitution Game was a pretty liberal class. But it's not about whether liberals are more hypocritical than conservatives (I don't think they are), it's about whether or not we have the mental fortitude to recognize and address the hypocrisy within ourselves. Many, if not most of us, cannot.
Yes, much like this "ironic misandry" fad, adult women who have the intellectual and emotional capacity of adolescent girls, are allowed by our society and pop culture to make productions such as this, while members of "non-protected" groups are not - and really, why would any intelligent, well balanced person want to??? But as long as it's masked in some bit of childish humor or carries the claim that it's a reaction to some make-believe past wrong committed by men against women, this is socially acceptable these days. And remember, since we do seem to be entering some sort of 1984/Animal Farm like period, under their Newspeak or the dictates of the pigs (Ban Bossy, Lean In, etc.), mentioning misandry or pointing out that radical feminism is largely based on sexism or the desire for special treatment, not equality, that in itself is misogyny under this "new world order".
Well, this is the way that I see it. If it can be done in a calm, rational manner, I would invite a counter argument. Maybe there is something that I'm not seeing. But be warned, I will play the Substitution Game to see if you're a hypocrite or not.

IF YOU THINK THATS BAD
In the year 2000, Swedish feminist Joanna Rytel and the action group Unf**ked Pussy entered the stage during the live broadcast of the Miss Sweden contest. She also wrote an article called “I Will Never Give Birth to a White Man[8],” for a major Swedish daily, Aftonbladet, in 2004. Rytel explained why she hates white men — they are selfish, exploitative, vain, and sex-crazed — and just to make things clear, she added, “no white men, please... I just puke on them, thank you very much.”
Misandry, the hatred of men, isn’t necessarily less prevalent than misogyny, the hatred of women. The difference is that the former is much more socially acceptable.

Most often when people speak of a bifurcated society, now days they're speaking about economics and the vanishing middle class in America. But I would say that there is also thought bifurcation. Fox News vs. MSNBC provides one of the best (and most humorous) media related examples. Do others agree that people are increasingly being pushed to choose one of two sides... and do it without question? I think this is a dangerous trend that is developing and it's VERY unhealthy for the future of our society. It really doesn't matter what radical movement is being discussed. Whether it's a feminist, Zionist, homosexual, race-based, Islam, Christian, right wing, left wing, etc. radical movement, in my opinion, any radical movement that requires people to simply follow & chant, and forbids them from asking questions or criticizing, is a movement that seeks to create an even more bifurcated society. And such a society is easier to control. If you only have to worry about two groups of sheep, rather than a dozen or more, even the slowest Border Collie could handle that. I believe it was Lincoln who said that a house divided against itself cannot stand.
I'm generally not into grand conspiracy theories. But when there are easily identifiable patterns swimming around a chart, I see no reason not to point them out. And hell, it's good practice for my day job, since that's pretty much what I get paid to do. I ask, the things that become "socially acceptable", who decides or drives that train of thought? :dunno: A genuine and sincere question.

Standing to urinate is forbidden in Islam for Muslim men. You must sit to pee!!!
This rule is stupid. I will not follow it.
back to the post about the uhf*ucked group
Richard Bernstein has written in his book on multiculturalism, “the Marxist revolutionary process for the past several decades in Europe and America has centered on race and sex warfare rather than class warfare” as in earlier times. This reflects a scheme more total than economics to restructure the society. As the social revolutionaries readily proclaim, their purpose is to destroy the hegemony of white males. To accomplish this, all barriers to the introduction of more women and minorities throughout the “power structure” are to be brought down by all means available. Laws and lawsuits, intimidation, and demonising of white males as racists and sexists are pursued through the mass media and the universities. The psycho–dynamic of the revolutionary process aims for psychic disempowerment – decapitation – of those who oppose.
