What's the reason behind this wave of extreme hatred against men on social media by feminists and women in general?

Sure-Restaurant9610 · 2025-11-08T14:44:05+00:00

If you look closely, you'll notice that behind many of these insults lies fear. Fear of losing their monopoly on special treatment, fear of losing their monopoly on victimhood, fear of losing their privileges, fear of men not choosing them... in short, a general fear of losing control, power, and the ability to get what they want.

SarcasticallyCandour · 2025-11-08T13:16:17+00:00

They know men are waking up to their games and they're angry.

Women have been pampered by mens taxes, endless quotas, scholarships while being majority in universities etc. Schools throwing resources at girls' education while boys are the ones needing help.

Look at reduced sentences for the same crime, look at female teachers raping boys and cannot be charged with rape because its a female rapist.

Lenient credit checks for mortgage or a free grant to set up a woman owned business.

Look at the fake statistics on DV, child abuse pouring out of universities. All hiding female crime and blaming men on it.

This is female privilege, not women becoming equal.

Of course they're angry their lies are being questioned.

_WutzInAName_ · 2025-11-08T12:54:05+00:00

The current generation of feminist women we are dealing with in the web sphere and in reality is the result of multiple generations of women being repeatedly taught, over and over, drilled into their head, that they are the victim, and that they are so inherently just by virtue of the fact they are women.

When you can convince half the human population in the West they are oppressed, they are the victim, they are living in an unfair system that is set up to prey upon them, and the other half of the population lives a life of rainbows and sunshine, and are inherently evil violent creatures, you get libs of Shit-tok, and the vile, nasty, man hating feminists we see today.

They've been brainwashed for literal generations that men are evil and oppressors and they are good and the oppressed.

Those ideas are what created these monsters.

critical_Bat · 2025-11-08T13:54:46+00:00

This is a result of them being fed lies for decades plus their innate ability to fall in line. It is meant to demoralize you so you have to make a conscious decision on how you handle it.

notgamefauntain · 2025-11-08T16:49:38+00:00

worst part is i know someone who belives saying "kill all men" is normal and the only people who get offended by that are the bad evil men like lmao some people are unhinged

2DogsCaged · 2025-11-08T13:02:17+00:00

You are right. This is becoming a frenzy of hatred towards boys and men.

mrmensplights · 2025-11-08T20:41:22+00:00

This isn't just social media - it's society in general.

We are endlessly hammered with fearmongering about 'misogyny', but real misogyny is relative minor and isolated compared to misandry. The hatred of men is truly widespread and mainstream in western society. An entire generation of girls has been raised to denigrate and dehumanize men. They've been given a skewed portrait of men that shows them as foolish, dangerous, impulsive.

The reason you see it most prominently on social media is the same reason you see any sentiment that exists reach a fever pitch on social media: Echo chambers, confirmation bias, in-group/out-group dynamics, social proof, social validation, etc. Social media is definitely responsible for taking the seeds of negativity or singular negative experience women have with men and turning them into a widespread belief that is centered in their lives.

However, make no mistake that social media is not an island. The widespread misandry you see on these platforms is a reflection of broader society.

FeeRevolutionary1187 · 2025-11-08T15:38:34+00:00

im going to say this: every time I view a girls social media page, 9/10 she will either talk or repost something bad about us. I don’t think this is a good mindset to have but I almost think every single one of them hate us. And the trauma thing is not an excuse because if a man keeps getting done wrong by a woman, he’s told to man up and forget about it because all women aren’t like that. But for women, I guess it’s ok for them to generalize all of us.

Former-Dragonfly2226 · 2025-11-08T17:45:19+00:00

Because we’re finally standing up for ourselves. They can’t stand it, so elect to blame/vilify us further.

denvercaniac · 2025-11-08T19:34:11+00:00

Imagine a world where men were cared about as people and for their personalities. Imagine being treated with warmth, kindness and sweetness.

NoGoldDiggers · 2025-11-08T13:15:21+00:00

And if you dare say something bad about women most of these platforms will ban you.

Foreign_Look8668 · 2025-11-08T18:24:59+00:00

From my opinion, women publicly say this kinda stuff to get validation from the girlies and momentarily participate in vapid female comradery, unresolved issues or to somehow nag and neg all men into behaving. Women are statistically on average far better than men with regards to relational aggression than men are. They are good at making others turn against you and to work as a collective to make your life worse. Even if it is as flippant and petty as social media posts.

Keep complaining and saying stuff like this, there will be a poor man out there wanting to prove them wrong and be different from the other guys even when they they weren't the man they are complaining about in the first place.

Some of it is literally women being mean girls. Don't pay attention weird women who make even weirder statements on social media.

Vaudeville_Clown · 2025-11-08T15:24:00+00:00

The messages are toxic, but there's a borderline perverse little joy in looking past what's being said and drink in these women's bewilderment and (much deserved) pain.

A person who thinks the world should cater to them then throws a tantrum as they discover it doesn't, they deserve a little crash, and the pointing fingers that go with.

UWontHearMeAnyway · 2025-11-08T18:14:18+00:00

It's a desperation move to manipulate. They see men are starting to turn their backs on modern feminism bs. In larger numbers than ever. So, now they are trying really hard to manipulate men, to go back to being agreeable.

StandardHelp9493 · 2025-11-08T21:51:25+00:00

You will never go broke selling people the idea that their problems are caused by someone else, or that they are superior to someone else.

loker1918 · 2025-11-08T14:17:31+00:00

Underneath it all is projection. Feminism indoctrinated many women to go against their own biological wiring, the innate desire for pair bonding, nurturing, emotional security, and building connection with a capable man. For most of human history, those drives gave women fulfillment and purpose. But now, they’re told to suppress them in favor of independence, career, and self-focus.

Now frustration has grown due to the adherence of an ideology that didn't return the results they expected. Instead of questioning the ideology, it’s easier to redirect the blame. Hence the “men are trash” narrative, a defense mechanism to avoid confronting bad choices and acknowledge they were duped.

Proper-Put7052 · 2025-11-08T22:17:56+00:00

YOU TOOK THE WORDS RIGHT OUT OF MY MOUTH. It is sooo pathetic and bigoted, and I am just on Instagram, where I have been seeing such things since 2016. However, misandry is only increasing.

Now, I do share some on my story and attack them 😭, which if you guessed also made me lose friends but Idx

Eranon1 · 2025-11-08T23:09:20+00:00

Men are good at physical violence, women are good at social violence. They are lashing out because men are withdrawing and they NEED validation from men.

Men want admiration, women want adoration. To be admired you must have something to admire. To be adored you could just be cute. Because just being cute is no longer working, they need to develop a personality, which the majority don't want to because it's work. Being funny, or knowledgeable, or whatever it is that makes people want to spend time with you takes time to create. Men have to develop that if they want any shot with women. Women just dress like hoes and they get multiple men with low to no effort.

For example I have a kid with an ex and she will push up on me from time to time to get back together. I realized it's because I make her laugh, and I guide her just by force of habit. She does not make me laugh, or do anything substantial for me. So when she gets mad and says did you ever love me it's because for her, she doesn't need to give me anything I should just love her and always love her for being HER.

Alot of these women are finally being spoken to honestly by men and it's brutal for them because they've been told their whole lives they are special little snowflakes. Women who are now hitting the wall are realizing the value they should have created in themselves is not there, and as I said before you can't just create it in a day it takes years. And they know they don't have years, which leads to the lashing out.

It's not me men are the problem. Their not approaching me because their pussies and I'm too beautiful for them. When you realize that most women are emotionally still children when it comes to their insecurities it makes sense.

Specialist_Most_7338 · 2025-11-08T13:36:52+00:00

ShitTok, like most Western media apps, are feminist havens. They control them so that misandry is 100% tolerated.

A bunch of dumb bitches leading dumb bitches. This is what happens when women lead women. It’s demented

itsakon · 2025-11-09T00:45:08+00:00

They’re completely reveling in their privilege, and driving gender relations to a crash. I mean they really are ruining everything for younger women and men alike.

At best it will stay contained to “Pop culture”. But… can Rock and Roll fix this? And at worse, who even knows. Either way, there will be a puritanical backlash. People will crave stability.

When you call all the shy, good men “sex pests”, only the bad men can prevail. When you spend half the time chastising men for wimpy feelings and the other half scolding them for not showing their feelings… only the irrational men will prevail.

Only the rich and privileged can afford to blast through this social mine field. And historically, that setup was not so good for women. It wasn’t great for anyone, which is why young people rebelled.

Women right now are too stupid, privileged, and selfish to see that they’re driving us all back to Victorian times.

And 50 years from now, feminists will blame men for it.

dougpschyte · 2025-11-09T09:16:34+00:00

In the past, young men would be motivated to study and get a 'good' job, so they could attract women.

Then, they gave the 'good' jobs to the women, so that they now look down on us.

Oh how I was waiting for this one and yes I'm going to put my own personal business out there. I've been married 13 years come December. My wife and her sister had to watch their mom get abused by their dad. This is just to set the story. I am also the only one in my relationship that has held a job and took care of four houses we've stayed in with no assistance. I remember when the 4Bowel Movement reared its ugly head. My wife was just dying to tell me about it. Seeing as I'd already checked it out and laughed my ass off, I told her that if she was trying to subscribe to it, she could 4B her ass out of the door as I wasn't making time for it. Then came the bear movement propaganda. I told her to give that about six months and come back. Lo and behold, I was nearly correct again. It was actually shorter. Then she started watching more of those feminist propaganda videos on TikTok. I called her a hypocrite because not even a decade ago she was calling these same women that she was now watching stupid. It finally came to a head when we were taking her mom somewhere and she was just making biting comments about every little thing. I under no uncertain terms told her that the man-hating shit went or I would. She hasn't felt the urge to FAFO since then.

More recently, I would see her sister up there with all of the "go girl" propaganda. One example was a meme that stated "Teach your daughters that if he confuses you more than he comforts you, that he is not for you." My rebuttal was, "Correction. Teach your CHILDREN (both genders) that if they confuse you more than they comfort you, then they are not for you." There was a half-hearted agreement there. Then came the time where I shared something that stated: "A woman can be saved from all of her problems by a good man. No one is coming to save the man. Men are always alone." I stated that I only agreed with half of that as my mother did it all on her own. No man involved. That's when my SIL came up with this malarkey about men "losing their luster" and that being the reason why women leave them, become lesbians or stay single. After a quick conversation on the rate of domestic violence in lesbian couple relationships and the fact that I don't give two shits about what the next person is doing, we came to a compromise. She left the comment section on that and no one else responded.

I've already told everyone around me that I'm over this man vs. woman shit. The saddest thing is that the loudest ones in the conversation are the women. Most of the men I know don't care. We just want to live. As for me, I work in the prison sector full time with health benefits, but I also hold a CDL with HazMat and run my own small business on the side. It's such a shame what "social media" and so-called "television" have become. Did anyone else see that commercial where they're now saying that women are "more likely to die from a heart attack"? I wonder if all of the hatred in their hearts is a major factor in it.

TLDR.

Acousmetre78 · 2025-11-09T09:38:46+00:00

Yeah it’s wild. A woman I dated fit two months called me effeminate essentially because I wasn’t jealous or controlling. Yeah, I’m not becoming an abuser to fulfill some shallow view of masculinity you have. I have to admit the break up hurt. I’d been to intense therapy for over a year to become a better person only to be met with requests to act like a human wallet, a walking flesh dildo, or just gay for being respectful.

PierdutSi · 2025-11-09T17:48:31+00:00

It's simple - there is a paid agenda. I personally saw this on tiktok where a bunch of feminist accounts randomly find an "issue" to hyper fixate on (this month if think it was something like acidity levels of toothpaste being misogynistic) and what they all have in common is the exact same text they put on the middle of the screen. They also love to tell their audience (teen girls) how they are oppressed or how they are better than men (im the past few weeks they were promoting some bs feminist headline how having botfriends is embarrassing and how women are "realising they are the prize and how men have to step up or be alone forever". What gave them away was they sometimes straight up put "get paid to argue with men online" in the caption you literally can't make this up.

The short answer: distraction from deeper and more important issues.

The longer answer: "Every time I open Instagram, Threads, Tiktok, or Twitter...". There's your problem, right there.

roharareddit · 2025-11-08T19:00:04+00:00

It all comes down to the fact that men are avoiding entanglements with women more than ever before.

Just_an_user_160 · 2025-11-09T01:20:45+00:00

I have noticed it too since quite a lot of time by now, but in later years the amount of hate is just unbelievable, and it's not just in developed countries, in developing countries you see posts like those in social media frequently too.

WackyConundrum · 2025-11-09T07:06:52+00:00

Most of these takes are targeted towards other women. When they hear them, they're less likely to pursue relationships. This means that those who post them have less competition. This works in a smaller group, but in the Age of Internet it became a runaway process, like a fire in a fireside that spread onto the entire house.

Fast-Marketing682 · 2025-11-08T17:21:41+00:00

Most women never mentally separated from their mothers. As mental daughters they are not allowed to direct their anger towards mothers. So they direct it at men. Cause it’s safe. Unlike with their mothers. Mothers know all their pain points and wounds they made. And they can hurt in retaliation.

ObviousTower · 2025-11-08T19:30:59+00:00

I see more and more women speaking and writing and coming up with studies that prove wrong all the lies from the feminisation of the society so the wave 4-5 of feminism/woke culture is dying...of course people will become angry and violence will increase because the light is moving to other places and the victimisation is not selling anymore.

gnosticismschism · 2025-11-08T23:04:44+00:00

*white men

We saw during the bear fiasco, lots of women will say they would rather choose a bear than a man, but ask:

bear vs black man

Suddenly their answer changes from bear to black man.

It's a war on white men. Now I can't say why because that breaks reddit TOS.

LateralThinker13 · 2025-11-09T01:47:24+00:00

Don't be upset by this. Just use it for the free vetting of crazy and low-value women from your life that it is.

brainquantum · 2025-11-09T11:01:50+00:00

Also just saying that we can not exclude that some or many of these messages are actually automatically generated by AI-assisted bots. it is well known that many social online platforms like X (twitter), instagram chats and so on are literally infected by this phenomenon sometimes. It depends from one account to another and also depends on the type of topics (politically, ideologically driven ones or not), they actually study this, see for instance this recent open access article https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-025-96372-1

Now, this does not mean that when confronted to these messages, one could not feel very bad and that some of them are indeed infuriating, but sometimes it is also good to take a step back from online social media, which unfortunately tend to become of these topics highly resonating toxic spaces.

The truth is there ARE a lot of men who are toxic PoS. They are a MINORITY but make a lot of noise. And since some views get aligned (at different levels) they associate us with them. Hating an entire group for what few people did is just plain wrong

80% of feminism is good. 20% if it is written by bitter trolls (they will lose their mind if you call them that, but all their friends admit the same behind their backs) who rare not good partners and blame men for their issues.

Work on yourself. Work out. Learn a new skill. Advance your career.

In 90% of women when you discuss your perspective with logic, self respect, and disciple, you will find people suddenly understand/ change their perspective.

Relationships are a two way street. People want what they failed to get/

If you are not take by 30 there’s a reason why. It isn’t just the man. Reflect, grow up.

LightRaie · 2025-11-09T06:47:40+00:00

Unpopular opinion: you guys follow terrible people, and my suspicion is that the common denominator is that you follow influencers who's main thing is being attractive.

I literally never ran into any women saying anything like this, even though I spend a considerable amount of time watching video shorts. I do follow women creators. Some of them are attractive, but none of their main profile is just being attractive. I highly suggest to experiment by registering a new profile, and just immediately scrolling through / not interacting with content that is only about showing you a hot, attractive girl. I highly suspect that you will experience a different world.

Don't consume social media for seeing attractive women. If you want to see them, go watch some porn.

There was this disgusting wave of hating women online from like 2012-2019ish and I think we’re living in the aftermath of all of it. I mean it was EVERYWHERE. I couldn’t escape it whether I was on twitter, instagram or Snapchat. Hating girls for fun was this super big thing. Exposing nudes, rating girls from light skin to dark skin, talking about what our v*ginas looked like, stretch marks vs smooth skin, fat vs thick vs skinny, real hair vs fake hair - you name it, the hatred was vile and rampant. Whether it was about Black women, fat women, lesbian women or “ugly” women social media was SO bad towards women and girls and for some reason we all let it happen?

I guess now because that happened, the opposite is occurring with men. It just looks much worse because social media is all in your face nowadays. I’ve been on social media for too long (13 years) and so I’ve seen it all. Very disgusting and evil people.
