No. It's not a 'preference' when you are actively denigrated and demeaning others.

That would be called being an asshole...

preference means I just don't date them. I don't find women with short hair, personally attractive. I don't think women with short hair, are disgusting people unworthy of my consideration, nor do I feel the need to insult them, nor do I expect them to grow out their hair to become 'worthy' of me.

Again....never said it was good behaviour. However, unless they claimed they didn't like short men because they did not find them masculine, then its not really sexist.

Also, bullshit. Plenty of global leaders of the past 50 years have been women who were ruining the world. Ever heard of Margaret Thacher or Theresa May?

"Currently" was a specification. I also never said that every world leader or influential or was male, just most. Also claiming men are ruining the world does not imply that every single man is responsible for destroying the world.

If I asked what animals can fly and someone said birds..... Would you automatically say not all birds? Generalities are a commonly accepted form of communication.

all i'm getting from your comments here is an intense bias that if a woman does it, it's fine, but if a man does it, it's bad. you are just reinforcing the existing sexist bias.

All I am getting from you is pedantic nonsense and an intense need to be seen as a victim.

I'm not claiming it's impossible for women to be sexist, it's just insignificant in both volume and ability of implementation compared to misogyny.

Misogyny is both common place, and can be implemented from the hight of power. Women just do not have the social or political power to implement systemic sexism. The vast majority of business owners, judges, police, and politicians are male and thus they have the ability to act upon their sexism from the top down.

How many household names of misandrist can you name? Now think of how many misogynist pretty much anyone can name..... The two are not comparable in any way.

thanks. you have just proven my point.

you think women can't be sexist against men, and if I am pointing out that they can, I just want to be a victim. because if i call someone out on shitty behavior, it's not that it's them being shitty, it's that I'm i want to be a big whiny baby... right.

and yes, misogyny is very real, and misandry cannot exist. there are no true misandrists, but misogyny is evidence abundant and wherever...

You are just deeply sexist and committed to your sexist beliefs, and are using them to bias-confirm that sexism is one ever men against women, or something absurdly and patently not true.

Are we also going to go further, and claim that women can't be racist, because of power structures or something? so if a white lady goes on a tear about how all black men scary because she is afraid they are going to rape her, that's totally not racist and sexist of her, it's just her expressing a 'legitimate concern for her safety'? Yeah, I'm sure you already think that.

oh right, sorry, no, actually that's her 'just being an asshole'. right? did I get it right now?

how convenient this entire argument is for you, and your sexist world view.

Lol, I specifically said they can.....

a big whiny baby... right.

Seems you are doing your best impression.

and misandry cannot exist

Not systemically, and not at the same scale as misogyny.

You are just deeply sexist and committed to your sexist beliefs

Apparently I hate myself? I'm just too manly for my own good.....

Are we also going to go further, and claim that women can't be racist, because of power structures or something?

My dude, what are you talking about? Did you forget your meds today or something?

oh right, sorry, no, actually that's her 'just being an asshole'. right? did I get it right now?

Have you ever had a linear argument in your life?

I think you might need a break from the internet. You are becoming a little unraveled.
