misogyny

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.

Misogyny

Hatred of women and thinking of them as second-class citizens (commodities) often confused by women for men having opinions which conflict women's opinion such as right to education or right to hate men.
Also used as a word by women when they're arguing with men and run out of baseless arguments.
