Discrimination Against Men and Misandry are not Androcide.
This nanoessay deals with the topic of Androcide -- a genocide of men for being men. Fortunately, such event has not occurred yet. In Modern Western World, Discrimination Against Men does take place. For instance, men accused of Sexual Misconduct are presumed guilty and lose careers. Male victims of Intimate Partner Violence are generally arrested and treated as offenders. Male offenders get 61% longer sentences for the same offense.
One of the worst forms of discrimination is the fact that men are last to get life-saving resources. Even during strong Patriarchy, men were last to be saved from disasters. On Titanic 1911, few men were given a place on a lifeboat. In Haiti 2010, only women were given food assistance. Men are the last of those helped by World Food Programme. In 2020, if there is a shortage of help for CoronaVirus patients, men are last. This is Discrimination, but not Androcide.
Androcidal rhetoric has been common for a long time, but rhetoric is not action. Some Liberals and Feminists view all men as oppressors. Speech calling for Androcide has been common for decades. It is allowed on Twitter and it is published in New York Times since 1990s. Some of the Hate Speech resembles genocidal propaganda. Even though Hate Speech is a serious problem for its target, it is definitely not genocide.
Some Liberals and Feminists claim that Hate Speech against men is harmless. This is absolutely wrong. MenKampf equates androcidal rhetoric with Nazi crimes. This is as wrong. The situation is similar to verbal abuse. Prolonged verbal abuse is a severe problem for the victim, but it is not murder!
Androcide in Fiction.
Fortunately, in 2020, Androcide is an abstract concept. It belongs to Speculation and Science Fiction rather then History or Current Events. This subject has been explored in many novels. Many novels are Utopian -- they present Androcide as a positive thing. The first such novel was "A Sex Revolution" (1893) by L. Waisbrooker advocated reduction of male population to 10%. Even though it was a strongly Patriarchal era, no one tried to prevent "A Sex Revolution" from being published and no one tried to cancel or harass L. Waisbrooker. Novels about Androcide became common in 1970s and remain common now. "Quintessence" (1998) by Mary Daly describes an ideal world without men. In that world, "male contamination, both physical and mental" has been "corrected". "After the Plague" (2020) by Lauren Beukes describes a world where a virus called HCV has killed 99% of men. Of course this novel takes COVID19 into account. "The Power" (2016) by N. Alderman envisions a world in which any women gains ability to destroy any man by electrical impulses emanating from her fingers.
Some novels are Dystopian. "World Without Men" (1958) by C.E. Maine explores a Totalitarian society without men 7000 years in the future. "Who Needs Men?" (1972) by E. Cooper envisions a 25th Century World where men are exterminated. Rura Alexandra, Madam Exterminator is on an assignment to exterminate last few thousand men hiding in Scotland. She falls in love with Diarmid MacDiarmid whom she is suppose to kill.
