We should use the term "misandrist" more.

I'm sick of the amount of times I hear the term "misogynist" thrown around. It's got to the point of being a sexist insult.

Time to start casually calling people "misandrist" every time they say something about "positive discrimination" in favour of women or accuses us of having "man flu".

That'll go down well...

I think I speak for everyone when I say: "Er, que?"

I'd just call them a "Spacker"

OED says: the hatred of men (i.e. the male sex specifically).

spinster works as a nice counter

Just tell them to go and burn their bra or something.

Look at the inequality:

Google search for misogynist gets 485,000 results.

Misandrist gets 19,000

If ever a term was over-used...

I prefer misanthropy, tbh.

Tell them to shut up and get the dishes done.

Or put on my best Eric Cartman voice and say "get your bitch ass back in the kitchen and make me some pie" I suppose...
