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.

“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

Get the misogynist mug.When a woman says: "When I was a teenager in high school, I often felt like a lot of the guys were really stupid and mean, and some of the girls were skanks."
Then..a man hears the woman and says, "Yeah, I really hate skanks too. I like you because you're not one!"
He says nothing about the first half of the woman's statement.

Misogyny is when a man has total and utter contempt for women, but refuses to acknowledge or speak about the fact that many men might do awful things too. It's when there is an obviously unbalanced view of the two genders, and one is obviously being criticized a lot more than the other, even though both can be deserving of criticism. It's refusing to acknowledge a balanced view of gender issues.
