      Violence is bad no matter what gender is doing what to whom. Is there a problem?

    Misandry is where you see men as the problem - nothing more or less. It’s easy to quote stats, it’s much harder to address the real issues underneath.

      Right, so literally nothing about the post you’re replying to. Cool.

  Where is the mention of gender in this meme? If there was a man in a picture, not a woman, do you think the text would be less true? Do you feel comfortable walking somewhere at night when some strange man starts walking up to you? I sure as hell don’t despite my possession of a penis.

    I mean, if I were to throw out lines such as “if only women didn’t demand so much”, I’d be guilty of misogyny regardless of who I implied the demand was levied against.

    The misandry here is “men love to commit murder”, not the implication of who is murdered.

      Yes, if you divorce part of a sentence from the context in which it was placed, it does become bigoted.

      I assume you don’t think this person means every time they have ever walked anywhere at night in their entire life when they talk about night walks, but you assume this person means every single man. It shouldn’t be necessary to have that explained to you.

      Also, you don’t seem to understand the difference between punching up and punching down.
