Philandry is fondness, love, or admiration towards men.[1][2] Its antonym is misandry. Philandry is not to be confused with androphilia, which is sexual attraction to men or masculinity (and whose antonym is androphobia).
The parallel Greek-based terms with respect to women (females) are philogyny for "fondness towards women" and misogyny for "hatred of women". Parallel terms for humanity in general are philanthropy and misanthropy.
