There’s misanthrope, for hating everybody, and misogynist for hating women.
Please don’t tell me there isn’t one, but I can’t think of it.
The term you are looking for is “misandrist”
Ah, so there is one! How come I’ve never heard of it? With all the reading I do, you’d think I’d have come across it somewheres. Anyway, thanks!
Well googling for both words you will see that misogynist is about 50 times more commonly used than misandrist. I am guessing is that misandry is a still a newly emerging pasttime and there have not been enough works written about it or even mentioning it for the word to become widely known. (How’s that for a run-on sentence?)
Very good! You get a gold star. 
If it’ll help you remember, the andro- root (as seen in the exclusively masculine name Andrew and its Romance language equivalents) basically means “manly”, in the sense of “relating to manhood”.
I know a few Andreas that might not agree.
Yes, the root word of the name Andrea means “manly,” buy I’d hardly call the andro- names “exclusively masculine.”
Strictly speaking, the antonym for misandrist ought to be philanderer {I can’t recall that I’ve ever come across the word philandrist}, and philanderers, while their practices are frowned upon, ought to be philogynists. And the legions of automata in female form ought to be gynoids…
Obviously, it’s a plot by the men who control the world to suppress feminists.
No-one needs a readily-available word to describe man-hating, because it’s not viewed as an evil the way that misogyny is.
Maybe. :dubious:
and then there are those Andreas who would.
I think it’s because the usual stereotype as perceived by men allow those who buy into it to use “feminist” in the same capacity.
Ooh, please don’t. Once the word “feminist” enters a thread, it’s usually time to send for Thomas and the Breakdown Train. :eek:
Hmm… Or maybe it could be that men wrote & invented most of the vocabulary for a long time, and it never occured to them that anyone could hate all men.
Probably not, but yours is equally silly. So :dubious: right back at ya.
Oh, but “misandry” and “misandrist” are right there in the dictionary. It’s just that there isn’t the same mileage in using them as in screaming “misogynist!”. That’s the only reason you ain’t heard them.
My comment above didn’t orginate with me, but with the great Carl Sagan.
Who was a recognized expert in philology.
Women only recently started hating men, that’s why. Before that, they had a thinly-veiled contempt. Note the relation between Alice and Ralph Kramden, for example.
ding! Appeal to Authority fallacy. Thanks for playing!
