The Misandry Myth Only Seeks To Reinforce Patriarchy

Article here. Excerpt:

'The term ‘misandry‘ has been increasingly mentioned in recent weeks. While the term has been deeply embedded in the manosphere’s vocabulary for long, following the Atul Subhash suicide, it has gained renewed traction. It has since spilt outside of MRA/manosphere circles, with many claiming that women, society, and institutions exhibit misandrist tendencies and systematically favour women and disfavour men.

The manosphere’s use of the term, or its insistence that it’s the inverse of misogyny and is just as, if not more, prevalent, isn’t new. The dominant narrative within the Indian manosphere seems to be that men face systemic persecution at the hands of women and in a system that is created for their sole benefit. What’s troubling, however, is the use and acceptance of the term outside of the manosphere and how it has penetrated common parlance as the opposite of misogyny.'

... when anything that might make the case of MRAs gets into some mainstream publication.

Gender relations are political in nature. In politics, one upholds one's own case and diminishes one's rival's case. That's all you are seeing here. Feminists diminish MRAs' case to the point of even denying misandry exists. It's an attempt at gaslighting is all it is.
