Confused on what argument you're trying to make.Yeah but homophobia is completely different. A better example would be heterophobia. Many gay people say they hate straight people but that doesnt make it true does it
Probably but they dont. Men see women online joking about misandry and hating men and immediately think its some big issue
The reason why the term "hetrophobic" is funny because it doesn't have any real-world usage. Hating men does have real world usage. Not to the same degree hating women does, but pretending that people who identify with the term misandry are actually not ever hateful is genuinely crazy. Extremist feminism isn't new and it's not primarily an online concept lmfao, it's been around for hundreds of years and is shown in a lot of early feminism movements.
The SCUM Manifesto is a good read, but the author literally attempted an assassination. Has any gay person ever tried to kill a straight man? Probably not.
The terms we use actually have intentions and their definitions are important to discussions. Rewriting these definitions are disingenuous and using terms that gay people are using satirically is NOT a "better" example especially when the term misandry has an actual history to it.
