man-hater
Despiser of males
A man-hater is a person, typically a woman, who harbors strong hostility or contempt toward men as a group.
The term is often applied dismissively to feminists or women who criticize male behavior: They called her a man-hater just for pointing out sexism.
Someone might embrace the label ironically or defiantly.
