    They wrote

    normal, reasonable woman, or man, or a crazy, mysandrist feminist

    It’s implied.

    I’m not claiming that misandry doesn’t exist. But it’s not a systemic issue. The definition of sexism is systemic, though.

      You wrote

      I’m taking a guess and claim that you don’t really understand sexism. It hurts men, too, yes. But not in the way you think it does (but rather by toxic masculinity)

      I directly countered that. Suddenly the goalposts have shifted and what you said isn’t actually what you said.

      Stop.

      Using two or more adjectives doesn’t imply conflation.

      The sentence “You can have a regular apple or a big green apple” doesn’t imply that green apples are big, or that big apples are green. It also doesn’t imply that big green apples are irregular outside of this local phrasing context.

      It just implies that the set of ‘regular apples’ being referenced does not include the instance of ‘a big green apple’

      I can see where the confusion is coming from, this is tricky to explain clearly.

        That’s why context is important. And the way they wrote just seems like they conflate the two. If you look at the other comments with all the MRA chodes, I think it’s not too far fetched.
