I Despise Misandry And Misogyny

Clarification on the group, further thoughts, etc

I don't think there's anything wrong with misandrious and misogynistic jokes. I find mysogynistic jokes pretty funny actually.

This group was created because being against sexism usually implies being against misogyny.

I grew up with three older brothers, I grew to respect men and women equally. I was raised fairly equal to them.

Misandry is outdated and boring.

Though I also am not a big fan of Second wave feminism. It was extremely flawed. (Any following "waves" too)

No, I am not an advocate for every woman being "barefoot and pregnant cooking dinner" either.

That's more of an equalist thing. (There's a group for that)

Let's embrace our differences and put aside this Misandrious and Misogynistic bullshit that was spawned out of the past century.

 

Oh and I am not sure if it's Misandrous or Misandrious. Spell check doesn't even get Misandry.

Edit: I've considered deleting this, I've changed my mind in some ways. I'm going to leave it up for the hell of it though

    It's not about how you feel about it, it about how you make other feel using it, hence the word "respect, and the word "courtesy."

    I am just curious regarding your comment about disliking 2nd and all subsequent waves of feminism. I'm surprised you don't dislike 1st wave feminism because it was probably one of the most practically flawed considering the racism associated with the movement.



    To be clear I'm not trying to come off rude or anything!

    That's not totally out of topic. You're right, there should be a class about that! It's so easy to just say oh I hate [whatever] because they [did something] ..



    It's not like every single person from whatever group they're talking was part of that. Unless they mean a specific group like the Nazis or Al Qeda

    hey!!.. im drinking here.. hhaha, killing all men. that's something. ..and yep, you are correct.



    i think there should be a general subject on highschool in relation to understanding hatred as a whole and details around it.. perhaps a more practical sociology that possesses more emphasis on daily life experience like love, hate, friendship, lies, bullying, commitment, etc.



    ok, im out of topic.. sorry :P

    Yeah they're all satire. About hate though, people say "haters gonna hate" I think that's true.

    Hating through a traumatic experience is understandable, as long as it's directed at the right people. (Sometimes people generalize to all from that demographic, or something)



    When looking up misandry I found a woman who was in favor of killing off all men and living in an all female society. How boring that would be...

      Are you referencing "Women's International Terrorist Conspiracy from Hell" aka WITCH?

    there are jokes like that?!.. oh' satire..

    ..you said it, people have differences.. and sadly, "hate" on just about anything you can find under and beyond the sun is one of them :[



    but i don't blame anyone, some grew hatred through traumatic experience..
