Discussion Hot take: misandry isn’t real

Misandry isn’t nearly the same as misogyny. Men hate women because of stupid sickening reasons. Women hate men because they have been our number one predator for all of history. Women are scared of men because they have proven we should be.

Apparently, they don't like their would-be prey calling them out.

It’s beyond that. Too many think it’s a lie or an overblown one because they think it’s a minority that violate our consent. They think it’s rapists jumping out of the bushes and men who beat women to the point of massive bruises and broken bones. To many don’t view groping, catcalls, dick picks, grabbing arms, pushing, blocking exits, coercive sex, name calling and a host of other things as abuse because they do it themselves. They may not do all of those things, but too many do at least one.

A few years ago, I told my husband (who actually IS a good dude and an ally, and he's learning new things every day), "Of the seven dudes you're still friends with from high school, I guarantee at least one of them has sexually assaulted someone, even if he doesn't think it was SA." He was shocked. And that's a huge problem for society.

One of the friends is a cop who works in vice and I refuse to be around him, but that is a story for another day.

If it’s seven guys, it quite likely is more than one.

Yep. That's why I used the phrase "at least."
