Opinion: Hating men only centers them; performative misandry is misogyny

Article here. Excerpt:

'In a world systemically centered around men, pretending to dislike them only sets us further back as a society.

We’ve entered an age in society where many women have popularized throwing around the phrase, “I hate men.” It’s disguised as a reaction to the political and physical pain men have inflicted upon women through the power of the patriarchy; in truth, however, it’s just another way to perpetuate that patriarchal dominance.

After all, centering yourself around hating men is still centering yourself around men. It means nothing if you’re not putting in the work to misalign yourself from their gaze.

The hatred of men is, more often than not, performative. It’s a product of following propaganda and what people have deemed to be “cool.” It’s not established in anything progressive, and it’s a movement that harms both women and men together.

As per usual, women are the ones for whom this is most dangerous.'
