Yes, but as wise Reddit teaches us, being misandrist and signaling your lack of empathy for men’s struggles is one of the indicators of a wise and reasonable person.
Misandry is getting increasingly prevalent, and it does suck. But at the same time, at least on an individual basis, I can hardly blame people for it. I don’t know if I’ve ever known a single woman has never been assaulted by a man. The fact is we collectively do have to do better.

Being a victim doesn’t excuse bigotry. You can empathize with a person without excusing bad behaviors.
I don’t want to be subjected to hate and vitriol because of the actions of another person in an event that I wasn’t involved in… do you?
Bigotry, in all forms, is bad. Even if the bigoted person thinks they have a good excuse (they always do).
I remember one of my exes repeated a statistic a lot, “one in three women are raped at least once in their life.”
I don’t think you’re appreciating the challenge of these circumstances when “not all men” might literally be the exception, not the rule.
