Re: What's your opinion on casual misandry?

[thewakokid]

Right, but we're not talking about big societal trends. we are talking about a thing one person says or does to another person, and we are assigning greater or lesser values of wrongness based not on the act, but based on the name you give it. The only way the name of the act is important, "this we will call sexism, this we will not, even tho the act is the same" is of any significance is if you say "When we give the act this label it is worse".

I do not believe any single of sexism is better or worse depending on the gender of the agressor or the victim. Making a distinction that "some men have more power so we're more ok to do this thing to this one man" is the very definition of injustice.

I would say that a hatred of men is misandry even if you are right that the fact it's less common means it's not a big deal.

Of course we're talking about societal trends, because nothing occurs in a vacuum. It's given a different name precisely because of societal weight. It's only "worse" in that acts of sexism are acts that reinforce sexist culture and policy, while the same act with the gender reversed doesn't reinforce anything - and generally speaking doesn't even have the effect of damaging sexist culture and policy.

You can call hatred of men misandry if you want, but that doesn't make misandry a credible social issue.

"Nothing occurs in a vacuum" is the most meaningless buzzphrase to come out of either side.

"Kings murder paupers much more often than paupers murder kings, so we don't really need to care if a paupers kills a king" is bullshit. the frequency of the evil, or the people involved in the evil does not lessen the evil. I'm trying to assume good faith here, but this flipping it from individuals being harmed to "No, it should only be about people as statistics, and as statistics men being harmed doesn't matter" is such monumental goalpost shifting... "No, we don't actually care about people being hurt after all, we care about the identity or the class being hurt, that's all that matters" I mean... It's getting hard to not see that as just shifting the focus from protecting people to pushing only one side because you only care about one side.

Re: What's your opinion on casual misandry?

I mean taking you at your word, there are now two possible ways to interpret this argument, either my original "We care about people as individual entities, and as individual entities women will always be too weak to hurt men" or what it now sounds like you're saying which is "We don't care about individuals, we just want to make sure the statistics balance, and since the statistics show women as a group are hurt more often than men, we only need to combat one side of this to make the numbers balance out"

And frankly I can't tell which option I have a bigger problem with.
