Quote:Social media connects billions of people around the world based on their ideas, commonalities and shared interests. This has meant that people have been able to discuss and debate topics that have previously been ignored or dismissed.
One of the topics that seems to be being discussed more recently, is misandry. Whilst misandry is loosely defined as the hatred and oppression of males, it has been compared to the power of misogyny (the hatred and oppression of females).
I am writing this blog as a go-to list of questions for those people who claim that the world is misandrist, and that women are in power, or that women have more rights than men.
Further, I write this to challenge men who believe that systemic misandry exists on the same scale, or worse than misogyny.
The reason for these questions is two fold:
1. You probably cannot give real, evidence based examples for all, or most, or any of these because misandry doesn’t, and never has existed in a patriarchy where men rule the world
2. If you did find one example, all you have done is found an exception which proves the rule. If all you can find is one example in the history of the entire world, whilst thousands or millions of girls and women are subjected to that example on a daily basis, again, you’ve proven that misandry does not and cannot exist on a systemic level.
