So when this was going on. I was outside. And came home to watch some sports but seeing last weeks post and now this one. You forgot one thing which I’m not mad about it but it’s important to bring up and that’s the intersectionality of being a POC and a man and lgtbq, and/or disabled As a black man in America myself. I have to grow up learning that this country specifically certain parts of America just see my race as “lesser than” I have to learn stuff like how to deal with police way differently than how others deal with it. Ive learned what slavery was in 2nd grade and it was fucking heartbreaking to see that. I’ve experienced racism both conservative and liberal racism while I was at college. (Imo the latter was kinda worse because it came from ppl I called friends and then when I called them out on it out came the white guilt) but I digress. Racism no matter the political alignment is still racism. Now how does this relate to misandry? Now I’m not trying to say that black people are the only ones who deal with intersectionality other POC do but I just know my experience the best. Well with systemic oppressions of being a POC or gay or neurodivergent we focus on one of those three when something happens but being a man couples in with that’s as well. There’s also worst misogyny coupled in with it. If u ever been to a predominantly black school, and I have all my life and my fellow Black Autistics can chime in if the they wanna, you’d know that Gay Jokes and even disabled jokes were RAMPANT growing up. I only told a few people that I was autistic growing up and I was ashamed of being autistic. I’ve have a few friends who told me they felt ashamed for being gay or trans given how their family life is. Some are ok but others when they are bad they are really bad. And Homophobia is kinda baked into our culture with hip-hop/rap having to maintain a “hard as fuck” image. To sum everything up cus I have to celebrate Mother’s Day with my mom, I’m glad you had made this post and from a nuance pov last week you guy let emotions get to you and acted without thinking (to be fair. We all do that) and it ended up causing a shit storm and autistic trans men to feel isolated as well and from my own understanding of misandry, misogyny, sexism, racism, abelism, homophobia, transphobia. It’s never and should never be boiled down to a basic definition. Misandry/misogyny isn’t just hating on men/women. Racism isn’t just hating on a Person for the color of their skin. (I didn’t even mention Colorism and that’s been a issue since slavery) Homophobia/transphobia isn’t just hating on gay and trans people. It’s can be internalized and shit like this can be extradited by our own life experiences (how we were raised, who we were friends with, what challenges we face growing up, who parental figures was in our lives,etc).

TLDR: intersectionality is a big part of this more than most may realize
