[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This thread is a great Exhibit A of misandry. The amount of women on this board who hate men is quite astounding. I have never in my life met women like this and being a woman, I have a lot of female friends.

It is why we still have so much toxic masculinity. When you treat men like they don't deserve respect, you don't get a lot of respect back. When you teach your boys they aren't worth anything, they act out when they grow up.

When you attack women who support men who are in abusive situations or dealing with abuse in their relationship - you are just deepening the problem.

Please.  It has nothing to do with misandry.

What side of the issue you fall on here depends on whether you find OP’s assertions of abuse convincing.  If you take OP at face-value, her brother deserves lots of support and help.  If you find OP’s examples of absurd and her manner persistent, self-absorbed, judgmental, and hyperbolic, then you sympathize with SIL.[/quote]
My objection to OP had nothing to do with misandry, but with the dislike of a sister tearing a sister down. In fact, my objection is fully feminist. When we tear one woman down, we tear all woman down. This is what I find objectionable with OP and her family. Don't tear the sister down. Especially the one that until April was a great SIL, had a sick baby, and might be suffering from PPD.[/quote]

I only say what I think about SIL on this chat and to my Husband. I do not tear her down and told my brother repeatedly that the first year with a baby is hard on any marriage. In this moment I deeply dislike her, but you (and maybe my husband) are the only people aware of it[/quote]
And yet, you wrote that you told your brother that he should take care of himself and go out and do things on his own. Are you sure that those rec to him were innocent of any put down of his wife?[/quote]
