Printed in 1884, I have a two-volume English dictionary that describes perasty. It also appears in my 1953 College dictionary.

Like "Mohammedism", perasty is missing in all my other dictionaries.

How about the word ‘’misandry’’, the female hatred of men?

Perhaps that is because you are not spelling it correctly:

The word pederasty appears in every dictionary I own.
