[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m just realizing this as a female at age 54. So much hatred and disgust hurled at women. I think I didn’t see it when I was younger because I was attractive enough. I see it everywhere now that the male gaze is not on me so heavily. I don’t feel as watched and can do the watching. By misogynistic, I mean a dislike of women, women themselves included. Is this something every aging woman sees? [/quote] I noticed it at 11 years old when males began sexualizing me. Starting around 25, I made an effort to understand that not all men are pigs and all women aren't complicit in our oppression. There are more good people than bad ones. At 50, I understand that we are all part of this society, but we don't have to take part in facilitating misogyny and racism.[/quote]
