I think the best thing for you to do is to ask questions about how patriarchy and misogyny have impacted her personally, and listen with an open mind rather than trying to point out how she’s wrong. It’s very dismissive to say something like “not all men” when it’s a cultural phenomenon, just like it would be dismissive if I said to my H “not all white people” or “not all cops”. Then take her information to heart and see where your own behavior can change. Read a book or listen to some podcasts. It’s very likely that patriarchy does impact your marriage - maybe she does more childcare or more chores, or she feels the pressure to even if you don’t overtly pressure her - and do what you can to alter your behavior to make things more equitable and make her feel more valued. This has helped a lot in my own marriage. [/quote]

I see how this helps the wife with her legitimate complaints. How does this help the husband with his legitimate complaints? She's still trashing men frequently and at length, and it makes sense that the husband would grow weary of this after awhile. [/quote]
