Misandry - The hatred or dislike of males.
I sometimes see young girls with slogans on t-shirts saying things like 'Boys are stupid'.
Kathy Lette wrote a best selling book entitled 'how to kill your husband'
Often I have heard and read that a reaction to a man having an extra marital affair is 'hope you cut his balls off'.
In adverts you see men looking like idiots doing household chores.
The TV show Loose Women constantly hammers home how inadequate men are.
Imagine if Young lads wore T shirts with 'girls are stupid', there was a book about 'how to kill your wife', a joke between two men about cutting out his wife's vagina after an affair, adverts where women were deemed stupid and inadequate, and a TV show fronted by male celebs who made generalisations on womens sexual prowess, their looks and status?
In this recent Sun article about Domestic Violence the whole emphasis on the perpetrators were the men and the victims were the women.
The only helpline numbers were WOMENS aid ones!
Is this equality gone too far?
