    I think that my downvotes are coming from people like you, zealous and well-intentioned but misguided and not aware of their own misandry.

    I’m doing the best I can to push back against them as well - you just happen to be one of the most prolific commenters, so I see your comments most often. I promise that I’m responding to others too though.

          You have highlighted this comment as an example of my misandry in previous conversations:

          Misandry isn’t the reverse of misogyny. There’s no anti-men power structures being kept in place by women, there isn’t women-dominated governments stripping men of their rights, there’s no systemic violence against men perpetuated by women in power.

          There are certainly individuals that hate men, but misandry simply doesn’t exist the same way misogyny does.

          I stand by it and still think it doesn’t make me a misandrist to correctly identify the differences between misandry and misogyny.

          And I don’t think the people downvoting you are misandrists either.
