anthropocentric 

Centered around humans.
'Anthro' is a prefix meaning 'man'.
If I am only thinking of myself, I am egocentric. If humans are only thinking of humankind (and not other species or of the environment around them) they are anthropocentric.

anthropocentric 

An idea based around human thinking.
If a forest was to be cut down to build housing for humans, this would see seen as an anthropocentric idea as it only suits and is a benefit to humans. No consideration therefore is taken for animals or current exsisting wildlife in the area.

anthropocentric 

1. The idea that the universe revolves around humanity and humanity's interests.
Unfortunately, almost the entire human population, with the exception of some brave-hearted environmentalists, believe that humanity is more important than ANYTHING. Go ahead, kill as many zebras you need to make your goddam line of fashionable coats. OH, POOR ZEBRA! BUT NICE COAT! :D :D :D!

-Now, if it were not for animal protection laws by a few people who CARE, then this would happen all the time.

The more reason humanity deserves total eradication.

Stupid anthropocentric people!

Androcentricise 

The act, or making of something male-orientated. From the word androcentrism.
During the 1950’s, the USA dominated media with the image of the domestic housewife in order to androcentricise a truly developing culture, during the rising tide of the Sexual Revolution.

Androcentric-misandry 

The systemic and social hatred of men inflicted by other men due to differences that are disdained.
Androcentric-misandry is "Oh look, that man is fat, he's weak! He's not worthy of a wife."
"Oh he can't even handle a woman properly, He's weak."
"As a man, men are weak. They should be more like me since I'm a REAL man"
"Don't date men like that, date men like me. They have no muscle."
"Soft boys don't get far in life"
It is said of the situation where a person has the bad luck to make contact with his testicles against an undefined surface or object, intentioned or not.
Given the nature of the word, it is more appropriate to design cases where the interaction is made with a moving object, for example, a ball.
Although it is extremely painful for the victim, it tends to be considerably funny to people who witness it.
Today in the baseball game the pitcher took a nutshot; the baseball hit him in the nuts.

Man, I just watched the funniest nutshot video ever.
