Normalising misandry. Why only misogynists think sexism is unacceptable.

The massive flaw in her argument is this:

when you respond to the hurt, abuse, and oppression that women experience daily at the hands of those of your gender with anger and dismissal, you fail to take accountability for these actions.

I think sexism, both misogynism and misandry is wrong, stupid and bigoted. I do not dimiss anybody's experience of oppression. It is all to common and should be stamped out.

Fighting oppression with bigotry is not the answer. Fighting sexism, with sexism, is not the answer. If she meant she hated sexists then the correct way to express that is "I hate misogynists" and I would applaud, and stand shoulder to shoulder with her on that.

when women say “i hate men” we don’t mean you, unless you get offended then yes we do mean you

She makes no sense, the same could be said the other way round. I hate that misandrist posts like that get so many likes. So much male hatred to do it’s disgusting

But if anybody says "I hate women" or any other group for that matter, they'll be quick to shame and correct you by saying "DONT GENERALIZE AN ENTIRE GROUP" or the ol "NOT ALL WOMEN." Yet those are the exact same arguments that they fight against when it comes to men trying to fight against misandric generalizations or hate speech. But remember, feminism is about ✨gender equality✨
