What was a time that you, as a man, experienced sexism or misandry?

Misandry: the hatred of, contempt for, or prejudice against men or boys.

According to feminists, this doesn't exist, or if it does exist it doesn't matter because it's not as bad as misogyny, or if it is really bad it certainly isn't caused by feminism. The academic literature reads as though the entire concept was invented purely for the purpose of criticizing feminism. In fact, even pointing it out is often enough to get you labeled as a misogynist, which is perhaps why feminists construct their rhetoric in this way.

A recent survey found that feminists report being prejudiced against men in roughly equal numbers to non-feminists. Many newspaper headlines and reddit thread have trumpeted this survey as scientific proof that feminism doesn't cause misandry. Frankly, it should be obvious that political activists have every motive to not associate their movement with politically unpopular ideas, and bigots are often unaware of their own prejudices. That being said, what this survey actually does prove is the fact that misandry does exist. Large numbers of people reported gender prejudice against men.

I want this thread to be a place where men can share their experiences of this prejudice. Let's try to set aside the conditioning we have been given from birth that tells us to focus on individual responsibility and not complain when faced with an obstacle. I just want to look at objective reality here.

I'll start. Myself and four other men had terrible experiences working for a particular female boss over a period of five years. Three of them were before my time so I don't know the details. Myself and the fourth man had similar experiences. Our female coworkers constantly received mentorship, and we received aggression and disrespect. We were both publicly humiliated in front of dozens of other employees multiple times by this boss, which is something that never happened to the female coworkers. We were expected to do more work and work longer hours. Whenever there was a dispute between one of us and a female coworker, it became clear that our voice would not be heard. Finally, in spite of many late nights and generally good performance, we did not receive recognition for our work. This female boss went on to get promoted and is now in charge of a much larger number of people.

A fellow female supervisor once accused someone working under my supervision of unethical behavior which was unrelated to gender. I examined the evidence and found it unconvincing. Everyone else that was involved in the event in question told me that the unethical behavior in question had not taken place. When I said that I would not punish this person, the fellow female supervisor became very upset. Both men and women can become overly emotional, and I, seeking to treat her exactly as I would treat a man, said that we should focus on logic and evidence and set aside our emotions. This upset her even further, and afterwards she began spreading false rumors about me in the workplace which made my life quite miserable for a while.
