It seems to be a word that our culture has difficulty learning.

Its tough, 'cause as soon as someone complains about it others bust their chops for being a 'wimp'. Its ironic.

That can happen, but fear of being labeled a wimp can also be used as an excuse for self-censorship. Americans just seem unable to squarely confront misandry, though it is a common form of bigotry. When the subject is raised, discussion ends. I don't understand why.

BTW the Free Republic spell checker flags "misandry" as misspelled.
