What is the antonym of 'misogynist'?
Misandristmis·an·dry [ mi sándree ]noun definition: hatred of men: hatred of men as a sexually defined groupThe above answer was submitted by someone else, so I'll give my explination here.Misandrist cannot in fact be the antonym of Misogynist based simply on the fact that the definition of antonym is "...the exact opposite". Or, "opposite of....", and i state this because Misandrist is not in fact the opposite, more so the same because both words are defined as the hatred of one or the other. Therefore the subjects are different but the idea is the same. I don't yet know what the exact word being the antonym is, but it would be defined as the LOVE of men/women as a sexually defined group. Hope this is helpful!!!-------------------I agree. The antonym of misogynist should be philogynist. The antonym of misandrist would be philandrist.-------------------i agree with the above as well, but since we're speaking exact opposites, wouldn't philogynist be wrong for the same reasons misandrist would? its only opposite to half the definition. therefore, shouldn't philandrist be the antonym of mysogynist, and philogynist be the antonym of misandrist? well, its a hard point to argue, though, because in reality, a woman hater would be difficult to distinguish from a man lover, or rather, many mysogynists could also be philandrists and vice versa, but as far as the definition goes, that seems to be the most exact opposite i can think of. given that the opposite of hate is love and the opposite of man is woman, i'd say even if im mistaken up to this point, philogynist could only be as accurate an antonym as misandrist
