I was responding to your comment. People who understand feminism are against the vocal minority, and we say it constantly. Maybe it’s just your exposure, or maybe it’s an issue of confirmation bias, but anytime a misandrist puts on the mask of feminism, people come out and speak against them

Maybe you are right, in that case there must be some evidence of feminists speaking against misandry. I have asked many redditors for this evidence. You can be the first to actually provide it, starting with the names of the feminists on both sides.

Pick your example of misandry, and I’ll find someone speaking against it

Comparing men to wild animals by asking the "man or bear" question. Don't forget to start with the names please

upd: and don't forget they must be feminists too

Can you link to something specific? Just hand waving generally at a cultural phenomenon won’t allow me to get you a list of names, at least not in a time frame I’m willing to dedicate to this endeavor

Ok, here is a specific example. Professor Elizabeth Sheehy wrote a book advocating that women not only have the right to murder their husbands without fear of prosecution if they make a claim of abuse, but that they have the moral responsibility to murder their husbands.

Which feminists told her that her book is pure misandry? (And how did she react - just to prove that she didn't miss the criticism)

It’s not misandry to advocate for women being able to kill their abusers (a right that I would argue men also have). You’ll need to pick actual misandry. I won’t respond to bad faith arguments

Pick anything from this post that you consider actual misandry

You linked to a Men’s Rights subreddit. I need you to be serious.

No, I linked to Karen Straughan's post that was copied to the antimisandry subreddit

I needed you to start with a list of names, yet you failed to mention even one. If there are feminists who (note the present tense) oppose "actual misandry" as you understand it - please name any of them: your favourite, your least favorite, the last one you've read about, the one with the best jokes, or the one with prettiest hair, or the most popular one, or the most active one.

I can’t provide a list of names until you point to a specific example of misandry. I can send you examples of feminists pushing back against misandry, provided you send me an example of something to be pushed back against. I don’t consider a charged misreading of someone saying that maybe it’s okay to kill your abuser to be misandry. You continue to either purposefully or ignorantly misunderstand what I’m asking for, so I don’t see a path forward in this conversation

I have no idea what "actual misandry" is in your opinion. You said that feminists oppose misandry. If it was based on evidence, tell me about it, starting with the names. If your plan was to avoid answering my question, this conversation is indeed going nowhere.

Actual misandry would be gender-based discrimination against men. Killing your abuser is not gender-based discrimination.

Or your favorite example of "actual misandry", for starters
