Formed in the late 19th century as mis- (“hatred”) + -andry (“men”) by analogy with misogyny; compare the Ancient Greek μισανδρία (misandría), from μισέω (miséō, “hate”) + ἀνήρ (anḗr, “man”).
misandry (usually uncountable, plural misandries)
- Hatred of, contempt for, or prejudice against men.
- Synonym: misandrism
- Antonym: philandry
- A related concept is androphobia, the fear of men (or masculinity), but not necessarily hatred of them.
- Sometimes confused with misanthropy (“hatred of humanity”).
