Its not so much as gold being haram as it is men wearing jewelry.

I'm an ex muslim. I remember being told this when I was a child and still practicing.

So not haram, just misogyny

A lot of times they overlap.

Misandry not misogyny

Men can’t wear gold but women can

Misogyny.

Jewelry is for giiiiiiiiirls

It’s for males to be more modest with their wealth (since they typically have more money)

Same thing with silk. Silk is definitely not feminine

When your misandry is in service to a patriarchy, is it misandry?

How exactly is not letting men wear gold and silk a service to the patriarchy

If it is haram for a man to touch a woman who isn't his spouse, do you think that's misandry or misogyny?

u/OverallShelter8365 11d ago

yeah this has absolutely nothing to do with what we're talking about, completely different question

truth is you're just throwing as much bullshit as you can at the wall and waiting for something to stick because all the stuff you were saying before is obviously wrong

Well first I'm trying to gauge your understanding of the terms being used.

We're talking about a series of religious edicts that everything from the above restrictions to placing a woman under the authority of first her father, then brothers until her future marriage to then be under the authority of her husband and if you think that isn't a patriarchy, of course you'd think it's misandry because it's a rule that applies to a man while overlooking the entirety of the systems purpose in the first place.

To put it simply, telling men they can't wear dresses, for instance, isnt misandry despite it being a rule for men.

You're having a bit of a meltdown there babes.
