You’ll see dozens of posts and essays and videos about misogyny in literature and how terrible it is, but when a book features heavy misandry, it’s almost never seen as a problem. Like, there are several books nowadays like They Never Learn and How To Kill Men And Get Away With It where all men are treated as horrible monsters that deserve to die, but almost nobody complains about it. It’s especially prominent in the horror genre with novels like Molka, Marion, and Honey. But if I were to write a novel where all women are horrible people who deserve to die, and the man who’s killing them is seen as the hero, that shit would get labeled as a cogito hazard. What’s the deal with that?
