How can we combat deep misogyny?

[Anonymous]

Attractive women don't ever seem to complain about misogyny.

"Wicked" was released to distract most young women from the rights they're losing.

It makes me so happy when my 4 yr old nephew asks before he touches, or talks about his feelings and can verbalize them. That's the kind of stuff everyone needs to be teaching little boys. (And that they're NOT owed everything they want by the world.)

here is exhibit A as to why you have no clue whats going on outside your bubble. Andrew State and Joe Rogan are TOTALLY DIFFERENT. Andrew Tate is a convicted male macho Muslim and Joe Rogan is a laid back normal guy that isn't extreme. Until you start understanding the difference you won't make people think anything other than you are batshit crazy.

Joe Rogan is not a laid back normal guy. Anyone who endorses a rapist and convicted felon for president is not normal. A president should be held to a standard of having never done anything illegal beyond a traffic violation. That shouldn't be too high a bar.

I guess that well over half of the voting public is not normal inn your eyes.

That’s not how math works.

No, they are not normal.

Millions of smart attractive women in the world are attracted to abusive men. Like marry them, have their children, and sacrifice for them. Stop rewarding the abusive behavior and maybe guys will stop it.

She will never be "enough" even compared to males with mediocrity.

If we can somehow avoid talking about politics, can we please have a serious discussion about how deep misogyny runs in America (and yes, much more than many other places--or at least in different ways) and how we can successfully combat it? Is it possible? What do you think works well in other countries? What can we do here?

It's by no means "apparent" misogyny runs deep. I just can't get on board with this thinking. I'm a 52 year old woman and I just simply don't feel the pain.

I'm 52 also and I feel it more every day. You must be very privileged/sheltered.

Misogyny getting worse by the day! Bahaha

Most women don’t feel like there’s deep misogyny.

Like there’s not deep hostility towards men?

Men need to realize from the beginning that they are capable and equal parents/partners. Raising the children and taking care of the home should not be seen as "women's work." Once there is 1-2 generations of this, we'll be closer to gender equality.

What’s wrong with it being “women’s work”? It’s painfully obvious when looking at all living species, that mothers are the primary parent. I have a career, but only out of necessity. I would love to be able to devote myself fully to raising my kids. It’s not for all women, but lots of us dig it.
