Because misandry isn't the norm in society. So while she's a blatant misandrist it's not an example of something that's been hurting you all your life. A more bothersome example of misandry would be something like "of course men aren't good at being domestic, they're not intelligent enough to do laundry." Here it's really so abstract and intellectual that I can't even find myself being bothered by it, just going "I see what you did there." Probably more interesting to me in terms of sexism was Skin Painter's relationship, because she spun the domestic abuse victim idea right around.

They are! I actually only wrote it as biologically/behaviorally correct about Hyena and Lion-- and realized that... oh hey. I was making some kind of point. Maybe.

Mostly I've always just liked hyenas, ever since I was little.
