Yeah, that’s why they’ve latched on to toxic masculinity, that way they can say that discrimination faced by men is actually misogyny and continue saying misandry doesn’t exist.
Expecting men to behave a certain way and shaming them for not doing so is misandry. The same way shaming women who don’t want to be housewives is misogyny.
“society expects men to be fearless and brave” is misandry
Yes, this is true in my experience. Men are still expected to provide and protect.
When it comes to dating, the common sentiment now is that the one asking should be the one to pay. We are still traditional when it comes so initiating so it usually falls on the man having to pay anyway. What feminists say they want, and women actually want are not the same. In my experience, the vast majority of women I know expect their husbands to provide for them even if they’re earning money themselves.
I think there is an error in reporting. Firstly, a woman cannot be charged with rape unless she aids a man in committing it, not the case here. Secondly, if she was charged with rape, the bare minimum is a 4 year custodial sentence.
The more likely scenario is that she was charged with ‘sexual activity without consent’ which explains the more lenient sentencing.
Just realised that she was given a 4 year sentence, I got confused with the time she has to serve in prison.
A few more examples of real life feminist actions:
Women’s Aid protest against funding of male services as they see DV as a gendered problem.
Admitting that they’ve applied a ‘strategy of containment’ in regards to male victims of domestic abuse so that DV appears to be a gendered problem. The paper says this was done in order to obtain funding for their organisations.

The women who reviewed and updated the sexual offences act in 2003 stated the following:
“We did consider whether there was evidence that a woman could force a man to penetrate her against his will but, although we found a little anecdotal evidence, we did not discover sufficient to convince us that this was the equivalent of rape.“
“Of all sexual offences, rape is the most serious, the most feared and the most debated.”
This seems to be a common experience for a lot of men sadly
They were not giving advice. they were mocking men and dismissing male loneliness as a non-issue.
I don’t know the solution for loneliness specifically, but hatred towards men for being virgins or being unsuccessful with women will only exacerbate the issue.
