Scrote is excellent. It’s by and for females and men hate it. They HATE it. It could easily become a b word equivalent.

I’m late to the conversation, but I love the internetism of 蝻人 (nǎn rén). It bears the same intensity as ‘scrote’ to me, in that 男人 (nán rén; the usual term for ‘man’) is portmanteau’d with 蝻 (‘immature locust’, ‘cockroach’) to produce something that sounds truly vulgar in Chinese.

Men are genuinely taken aback, and ultimately angry if you express it well, if women tell them (and treat them like) they are non-entitities whose lives mean nothing. That they are just objects that the world wouldn't miss if they all ended themselves. You have to say it very cold and emotionless with full conviction and consistency, quietly reminding them that all the women in their lives are just playing a part. Which is often true.

Men don't care, and laugh, if women think they are garbage because that means they have made women angry and frustrated, which gets them off. But to realize they have no worth or purpose in women's lives is the ultimate insult.

I love 'scrote', 'moid' and I am also hoping to get traction for my composite word 'smegmoid'. We should also come up with something short and male-specific that insults their lack of reasoning skills. And finally we should tell them to "Calm down, and stop being so testerical".

Right!? I’m so tired of the whole “b*tch is gender neutral” thing. It isn’t. I had no idea Korean radfems did that, but I love it! I do something similar IRL where I use the words “man” and “male” as actual insults. It will never catch on but who cares :D

Another thing that bothers me is this attitude that women shouldn’t be mean about men just because they’re mean vicious about us. We’re expected to be better than that and not to sink to their level of name-calling and immaturity. I think it’s mostly self-imposed female socialization, and that makes me sad. Men don’t think twice about calling women “c_nt”, “wh_re”, “karen”, “b_tch” etc. Who cares if some women want to use words like “moid” or “scrote”?

Some prick at my uni referred to a hypothetical woman as “hag” the other day when we were having a thought experiment. Literally the only information that had been provided was that this hypothetical person was (1) older and (2) female. Yesterday I heard a male classmate call a female teacher “c*nt.” So yeah, not making any efforts to “be kind” until somebody fix men.

I agree that scrote is the ultimate but there is a word that fills men with rage that they absolutely hate especially when they know it's true: Pervert

Such is the difference between an insult and a slur: insults for men just do not have the power and history to really sting.

Male insults are lazy because men are fundamentally less intelligent and creative, this is why women tend to score higher in languages/reading comprehension type of standardized tests. In addition, for the past millennia men were all powerful and godlike and anything they said was taken as truth. So their insults could be lazy because they never had to elaborate on what they said because they knew it would be believed. A man could call somebody a bitch and everybody would rush to believe it. There’s not need for complexity, better reasoning skills, playfulness with words if your perspective is always elevated and nobody challenges it

"Pornsick" is alright but I also think it can just be an accurate descriptor.

I'm not afraid to call a man a "cuck" either, if I know it would particularly bother him.

Edit: ahh, another great one is "testerical"

One of our good second wave words I like: mutant.

In the German dialect of my grandparents, you call a man either a "schoolboy" or (really hard to translate) "a little guy who smokes cigarettes". The latter is to imply that someone just hangs around being a totally useless and insufferable smartass, the first word is supposed to express that the man being called can't and should not be taken serious.

My grandparents had so many fantastic words, some of the insults are super veiled. Too bad it's going away.

Incel, simp, coomer, cuck, beta, limp-dick, neckbeard, and douchebag tend to be male-targeted.

Dickhead. Wanker. But again, pretty mild. As you rightly say, the worst insults relate to women's genitals or just the female sex (bitch, cow, mare etc..)

As for reclaiming, I have a pet female canine and I refer to her as a 'bitch' when I'm talking about her. People in the dog show world refer freely to "bitches". It feels empowering somehow, to use the word in its original usage. It takes the sting out of the word as in insult against women. If you use it often enough it becomes normal and then it makes the insult version seem weird. Like, why are you referring to me as a female canine, weirdo?

Bastard, scrote (used a lot where I'm from but is for a specific type of bloke), dickhead, ballbag, wanker, knob jockey.

I saw another poster saying wanker is mild, perhaps that's a geographical thing because I view it as pretty harsh. Any man saying it to another man would be risking getting punched for using it.

But I agree the worst insults are female biased - c word and t word probably considered the worst as I was growing up.

Then there's the ones used mostly for comedic effect - dick weasel, wankbadger, toss pot.

I use dickweed or wankbadger.

But agree they aren’t as harsh as misogynistic slurs. You missed out dochebag as well, which imho always sounds so rape-victim-blamey it’s the worst of the lot.

Pussy refers to pussy footing around things= cowardice. So it’s ambiguous in it’s use as an insult.

Jerkface, dickf@#ker, fatherf@#cker, son of a prick, goatballs (because they stink!), and several others insulting their genitals and lack of sexual prowess - because they are so obsessed with it. Insult them where it hurts.

A good feminist language against men would:

1. be powerfully shaming
2. reflect feminist values

You can take advantage of a man's insecurity about performing masculinity and being dominant, and this will be powerfully shaming, but it won't reflect feminist values. I don't want to use words like "beta" or "cuck" or "virgin" because according to my feminist values, there is nothing to be proud of in being an aggressive ape who coerces women into sex and restricts their freedom.

I'd much use it to shame them for doing things I actually consider shameful: raping, being violent, watching porn, not respecting boundaries, etc.

I already saw scrote, but chode is a personal favorite. A penis that is bigger around than it is long lol.

I don't think I've ever heard a woman be called a Guido, wop, or sand n-word; I'm thinking lots of ethnic slurs and insults arent exactly male specific but they wouldn't commonly be applied to women. Hope those words are allowed to be printed here referentially, I'm not certain lol
