A very nice quote, indeed.

Is misandry really any better than misogyny?

When the playing field has really and completely been evened, I'll stop hating them.

Besides, last time I checked, actions speak louder than words, and I haven't recently been denying men the right to education, higher professional life, voting, or any other civil right, contrary to popular belief.

How is hating men going to help "even the playing field"? Misandry is only furthering the gap between the genders, same as misogyny. How can everyone be equal when the respect between genders, in both directions, is not there.

Not all men are misogynists, just as some women harbor hatred towards their own gender. You can't lump all men together, as a group directly opposed to women.

... I'm wondering how you think I'm serious.

I mean, really? I don't like to think people see me as discriminatory and sexist.
