A question that's always bothered me:
If a "misanthropist" (or "misanthrope") hates "people," and a
"misogynist" (no or????) hates women, what do you call someone who ONLY
hates men, other than the perfectly good "man-hater?"

Never mind. I looked it up myself. They're the same. Misanthrope
and misanthroopist are the same. Wait, misanthrope and misanthropist
are the same. See, Mike, see what you're missing? There are even two
ways to spell it.
