I’m just highlighting the fallacies in this statement OP mentioned

Currently in a debate with a feminist in the comments,and by debate I mean me trying to explain why my experience with feminism has led me (and most men) to beleive that feminism is a man hating club and her just saying that it's not true feminism and I'm wrong and my experiences are invalid

tell this to all men dead "for greater good" because they were programmed to be expendable for the benefit of "women and children" which are always "first"

I recommend you to visit this sub where it documented women who do r@pe and violence against men r/WomenAreViolentToo

I'll start taking their ideas of gendered violence more seriously when they admit that rape laws are very biased towards female rapists. They have a very skewed idea of how the real world is and all the horrors it contains (spoiler: women aren't the only people who will suffer), yet somehow it's the people who feel empathy for men who don't see things for how they really are.

Also men are statistically more likely to be homicide victims 💔

Tell that to some poor boy that was killed by a pair of mentally ill women because they wanted a girl and disliked him because of how he was born.

Their logic completely falls apart when you apply it evenly. If misogyny is more than just physical violence—if it includes discrimination, mockery, and systemic issues—then misandry does too. But they don’t want that. They need to gatekeep oppression so that only women can claim victimhood.

The idea that "misandry doesn’t kill" is outright false. Look at male suicide rates—sky-high, yet largely ignored. Look at the way society treats male victims of domestic violence and sexual assault. Men are mocked, dismissed, and told to "man up" while their abusers walk free. Look at family courts where fathers are stripped of their parental rights by default. Look at how male homelessness and workplace deaths are never framed as gendered issues despite overwhelmingly affecting men.

When feminists laugh at men being raped or mutilated—like that infamous The View segment where they laughed about a woman mutilating her husband—that is misandry. They try to redefine it as "just jokes" or "empowerment," but if the genders were reversed, there would be global outrage.

The double standard is obvious. These people need to downplay misandry because admitting it exists on the same level as misogyny would dismantle their entire victim narrative. So instead, they gaslight, move the goalposts, and pretend male suffering doesn’t matter.

Thats bc they have a flawed definition/understanding of misandry. Someone needs to enlighten them.

Men are being kidnapped in the Ukrainian streets to be slaughtered, not women.

I'll start taking them seriously when the female child rapist I caught in the act actually faces punishment. But considering she didn't even get fired from the school, and still has a current teaching license, I don't anticipate I'll ever take them seriously.

Yet, misandry leads boys and men to kill themselves.

We already know there are more male victims to misandry than female victims to misogyny. Women isolating men until they die is misandry "BUt mEn ArNt enTitLed to wOmEn" we live in a fucking society if women are entitled to mens labour and protection, men are very much entitled to social interaction with women.

As far as I understand this statement doesnt devalidate misandry (although it might often be used in contexts that seem like they do). It focusses on the different extents of danger that come with misandry and misogyny. For example misandry leads to social exclusion and insults and in some cases also to violence. The emotional damage of violence is always enough to make it a horrible thing, but the physical danger is usually smaller for men when being a victim of a misandric woman. Domestic physical violence, especially those cases with severe physical consequences, is most usually directed at women. Certainly there are exceptions, but overall this is the case. This is how I understand the statement and I think in that way it makes sense. It doesnt devalidate misandry but it marks the difference in terms of physical danger. PS: I agree that laws are shaped to protect female victims better than male victims, which is terrible for all male victims and increases the physical danger for them. On the other hand, as stated before, Im not sure if you would disagree to the fact that female victims stand in bigger physical danger and are also more often victims of violence with grave physical consequences. I feel like many of you would disagree, what would you say Im missing?
