Thanks for pointing out the word. I was looking for something that was a little more satirical based on the word "homophobic," which actually means "fear of humanity" or "fear of mankind." Still, I appreciate having a synonym available for my admittedly make-believe word.

Thanks for pointing out the word.

My pleasure. Why does everyone seem to know what misogyny means, but not misandry? Even the FR post spell checker doesn't recognize the word.

Current Google hits on misogyny: 2,320,000
Current Google hits on misandry: 116,000

In my life I have seen far more misandry than misogyny, yet our culture doesn't seem willing or able to confront the subject.
