Misogyny and Sexism are two different things. While sexism is the hatred of women, misogyny is a branch out that describes the ideology that women can’t do some things or are different in any
way than a man is. For example, when a man (or woman) says that women should submit to
men in a relationship, that is misogynistic. When a man (or woman) says that women
aren’t as smart as a man, that is misogynistic. When a man (or woman) says that women do not deserve the right to vote, that is sexism. However, human anatomy is not misogynistic. When a man (or woman) says that
men are naturally stronger than women, that is human anatomy and should not be classified as misogyny or sexism, because the
male body is bigger and bulkier. When a man (or woman) says that a woman is more emotional than a man because of her
period, that is misogynistic. When a man (or woman) says that the only thing women can do is take
care of children and a
house, that is both misogynistic and sexist. These are just a couple of examples, and there are many more ways to be misogynistic or sexist. If you have a sexist or misogynistic mindset, I recommend working it out, because they are both
wrong. Women and
men should have the same rights, but they don’t.

mom asks me to
clean my room and like that’s not something I should be doing, ‘cause she’s a woman and I’m a man.” -Classic cishet white rich boy
“Actually man, that’s really giving misogyny. You should apologize, because that’s just rude of you.” -Cool cishet white rich boy
“Uh- Uwa- wha- b-but the- the… the
bible says otherwise! It says that women should submit to
men and stuff, so why am I the one in the wrong. Plus, my
dad says stuff like that all the
time so it’s fine.” -Classic cishet white rich boy
“Thats, like, really uncool. You guys are using religion as an excuse to control women, and giving everyone with your faith a
bad name. Maybe we shouldn’
t be friends anymore… I can’t be seen with someone so insecure they have to put others down in order to add a little to their ego. That’s like, embarrassing, man.” -Cool cishet white rich boy
