A lot of people here insisting, for some reason, that "misandry doesn't exist".
Honestly, if you want to argue differences in severity and implementation between misandry and misogyny we could talk for weeks, but as best I can tell one would have to be pretty determined to somehow not see it. It really is just like misogyny - one of those things that you encounter occasionally, however much you wish you didn't, though not as endemic a problem as certain idealogues would have one believe. But let's talk evidence:
Try, if you have a high tolerance for bigotry, reading Jessica Valenti's article in the Guardian on how she's a proud misandrist. Or the one where she laments the illegal nature of paying people less for being male ("bummer" was the word she used, I shit you not). Or just any article of hers, really. This is a woman who is paid good money to publish frequently in one of the UK's biggest national newspapers (she's not the only misandrist who works there, just the most obvious). It doesn't merely exist - it is socially acceptable, apparently.
Anyone who fails to see misandry should occasionally read a gender politics article/blog/post, then invert the pronouns; male <-> female, and read it again. If it's sexist one way, it's sexist both ways. On a related note:
