Misandry is just a term made by men to make them look like they're victims while they are the oppressors.
Misogyny was a very common thing, and still is, while misandry is made just to make women look bad for fighting for their rights and turning the positions around. And transmen experience transandrophobia, not 'transmisandry', because misandry is a term created by cis men as a way to make themselves feel more oppressed, by claiming transmisandry exists youre saying misandry exists, because it would be a mix of transphobia and misandry, like how transmisogyny is a mix of transphobia and misogyny.
While we are at it, transmen also do not experience transmisogyny.

YES FINALLY SOMEONE WHO KNOWS ABOUT TRANSANDROPHOBIA! i wrote an entire essay last year on the anti-masculinity trans men experience in the queer community coupled with misogyny both inside and outside of it and of course transphobia, but those experiences are so often ignored and erased. i do believe that trans men can be affected by and therefore experience transmisogyny, but they are not the direct targets of transmisogyny specifically. i believe that everyone, societally, is affected by the specific brand of pervasive and vile hatred of femininity that fuels transmisogyny, but of course trans women and fems are privy to that very direct brand of "you're a failure and a freak for embracing femininity when you should be masculine." this is why i hate terms like tma and tme because, besides from them very obviously being ways to shoehorn people back into predictable gender roles in a woke way, they also ignore how transmisogyny poisons society as a whole, yes this includes cis men and cis women. here's the essay i wrote btw, it's around 2.6k words
!!
trans men can experience transphobia and misogyny separately and even at the same time. but not transmisogyny if that makes sense
!!!! THIS
People need to realise how oppression works, by saying misandry exists youre implying misogyny does not. As oppression means having power or authority over someone, if women are able to oppress men (their oppressors) back, then women were never oppressed in the first place bc you cannot oppress someone that holds power and authority over you back. They can experience prejudice, but thats something individually, misogyny etc. is something systemtic, so misandry would have to be systematic oppression too, and i think we can all agree men are not oppressed globally for being men.
