What is the female equivalent?
"Misandry (IPA [mɪ.ˈsæn.dri]) is the hatred of men. The word comes from misos (Greek μίσοÏ,, "hatred") + andras (Greek ἀνδÏαÏ,, "man"). Although misandry is sometimes confused with misanthropy, the terms are not interchangeable, since the latter refers to the hatred of humanity. An idea related to misandry is androphobia, the fear of men (male humans), but not necessarily the hatred of them."
Is JBub picking on you?

ah ha!
thank you
I appreciate it
at work my partner is known as a misogynist to the nth degree
some of the other crews were wondering what the female version was
the only answer that came up was
"Lesbian"
this was proposed by the lesbian crew
they found their answer to be high-larious
All my best friends are men. My bff is a Medford (male) Fighterfighter.
I guess I get my my lesbian card taken away.

that's actually pretty funny on their part...
Our crew is split pretty evenly with
a younger happily-embrace-diversity-liberal crowd
and
An older generation hater-of-all-things-they-consider-deviant-conservative crowd
The shift change conversations are rather entertaining
although
somebody is going to get fired one of these days
that will be entertaining as well i suppose

only for hanging out with folk from medford

yeah, misandry is a not too common word (firefox is saying it's misspelled). It's kind of like people thinking of polygyny when they think of polygamy, but it's rare to think of polyandry.
I kinda miss anthropology class.
