Perhaps they'd like to clarify whether or not they believe the law should be applied equally.

Originally posted by SurturNot, at all, it should be illegal but as Sam said it's scale is negligible in comparison to the Incel Revolution no matter what those Mens rights sites are telling you Surt.
So just to be clear, you going "lol MRA!" was your way of agreeing it should be illegal? Is that the claim now?Genuinely curious how many are dumb enough to believe that, any takers?
The Decent Incel exist too, who is no radicalised by the woman hate sites like this guy in the Article I posted. MattCULTURE

INSIDE THE SECRET WORLD OF INCELS
BBC One
★★★★☆
The first the world at large heard of incels was when a 25-year-old named Alek Minassian drove a van into pedestrians in Toronto, in Canada, in April 2018, killing 10 people.
“The Incel Rebellion has already begun!” he had proclaimed on Facebook shortly before the attack. The same posting namechecked Elliot Rodger, who, in 2014, had targeted women in a mass shooting in California.
Rodger has become a posthumous figurehead for dangerous loners such as Minassian. The worrying message conveyed by Inside the Secret World of Incels is that neither is an isolated case.
‘Incel’ is internet slang for ‘involuntary celibate’. Usually it refers to young men whose sexual frustrations, heightened by emotional instability or mental illness, develop into a dangerous misogyny
“Incel” is internet slang for “involuntary celibate”. Usually it refers to young men whose sexual frustrations, heightened by emotional instability or mental illness, develop into a dangerous misogyny. Many believe they are “owed” intimacy. Often they hate romantically successful men as much as the women they feel rejected by.
The stereotype of the awkward outcast seething in isolation is largely vindicated by this efficient, if deeply alarming, BBC documentary. We meet the loathsome “Catfishman”. A woman-hating freak, he poses online as a male model and then ambushes women who have agreed to meet him for dates.
He’s a coward as well as a woman-hater, hiding behind a mask that makes him look like a pathetic parody of Bane, from Batman. It comes as no surprise to learn he has a history of domestic violence, serving jail time for beating up his ex-girlfriend.
“I’m not killing them,” he said, asked whether he empathises with Rodger. “I’m just exposing them.”
Decades ago, people such as Catfishman might have stewed in solitude. Today the internet, with its dozens of incel message boards, allows their vituperative ideas to go viral.
Matt, who seems sweet and grounded and vents his frustrations by singing Billy Joel songs at karaoke nights, offers the contrary view that forums can be supportive. He insists you can identify as an incel without being a woman-hating psychopath. (He steers clear of sites that push a misogynist agenda.)
Matt comes across as essentially normal. A bit dorky, perhaps, and probably versed in the differences between Dungeons & Dragons and Magic: The Gathering or WoW, but universes removed from Rodger and Catfishman – to the extent that it’s not entirely clear what he’s doing in the same documentary.

The scale is irrelevant. Didn't read the rest of your triggered post.
Never said misandry shouldn't be a crime if misogyny has the same status, not once. I actually don't think either one of them is a crime as they're more like states of consciousness which can certainly manifest themselves criminally with some people. But the reason we see so much more about misogyny in the news/media is because it happens more right now and it's usually far less surreptitious.
I think the reason why men will go to violence (with other men as well as women) is largely the same reason why women will make efforts to be more devious (with other women as well as men). Boys are conditioned to believe that their size and might is the way to have an impact on the world and girls are conditioned with the belief that they are capable of great cunning so they become the weapons of choice for the respective sexes.
A man is far more likely to use violence as he thinks it's how he gets the edge, women will gravitate towards being more manipulative and deceptive because they believe that's their strength. It's why we see more violence associated with misogyny than we do with misandry.

If you consider that the comfortable majority of victims of domestic violence are actually men, you'd be wrong.
Thinking it is okay to hit your man because he says or does something you don't like or agree with is misandry.
The sexism test: "If the genders are reversed in this scenario, is it okay?" The answer is a resounding no. It is not okay. If a man feels it is okay to hit his women when he doesn't agree with something she does or says, that's violent misogyny.
Also, this is another uncomfortable fact that the leftists and progressives like to ignore. And when you bring it up, "But mans hurts duh womanz harder! Dey iz strongerz!" Yeah, okay, assault and battery is okay for women to do, then. What a great argument!!!

I'm well aware of the domestic abuse stats. Completely agree with what you're saying. My point was that misogyny almost always leads to violence, whereas misandrists seem to express their hatred with with a sort of 'mind games' technique. Not all misandrists are violent, they're mostly gaslighters.
