[quote=Anonymous]It may seem counterintuitive but many of us need to do some work on not blaming men for every social ill or casually snark that men are lesser beings and horrible by nature. I am seeing a lot of posts lately on DCUM where women feel completely comfortable making broad negative generalizations about men as a gender. This type of talk leads to more polarization rather than understanding. Misogyny cannot be reduced by retreating into gendered spaces and discourse. Misogyny will only die when men and women can see beyond gender stereotypes and view one another as individuals.

So in other words… no, misogyny will not die any time soon based on what I have been seeing these days. Men and women will increasingly hate one another until something larger forces a reckoning. Women had an opportunity when the old social structures started to fall away but they are showing that they are more interested in payback and acting like the worst men than they are with the idea of growing into a more balanced future.[/quote]
