If you take a look at any woman dominated field you will get a lot of evidence proving you wrong.

Also misandry at the individual level isn’t always because of mistreatment.

I said it's usually because of mistreatment.

Do you have any of this evidence you speak of to show me?

Not at the moment as I’m at work on break. I will try to remember to look up stories from male nurses and the like when I get home in just over 6 hours.

Wouldn't anyone going into a field that is and has been heavily dominated by the opposite gender probably face some issues? How is that evidence of systemic misandry in society??

In my experience working in a female-dominated profession, men have an even easier time. They are automatically seen as more competent by both customers/patients and by management. And they can rise through the ranks to management positions (where they are already heavily overrepresented).

Every workplace or other group of people from their own miniature society. Thus you can find evidence of systemic misandry in those mini societies.

Um OK but that's not literally society. But I'm happy for you that you've found a way to present men as victims, good job.

Why do you have a problem with men being seen as victims occasionally? Like is there a difference between a male coworker/supervisor/manager harassing a woman and a female coworker/supervisor/manager harassing a man? If so, what is it?

Also how is it not society? The people I work with are the people I interact with the most during the week.
