hunspell & aspell don't recognize "misandry" as a word

[Mackenzie Morgan]

Binary package hint: hunspell

Neither hunspell nor aspell recognizes "misandry" as word. It's the opposite of "misogyny"...hatred of men.

So the opposite of hatred of women is hatred of men? I thought that would be love of women?
