Internalised misogyny

Bringing other women/girls down.

'I'm not like other girls, I don't go shopping. I just watch Netflix with my dog.'

The person who claims to watch Netflix with her dog is bringing the 'other girls' down, by shaming them for going shopping. This is called internalised misogyny

'All of the other girls have make-up and look so fake. I don't do that, I'm different.'
'That's internalised misogyny my dude.'

You think me an old fogeyand an old tory, his thoughtful voice said. I saw three generations since O’Connel’s time. I remember the famine. Do you know that the orange lodges agitated for repeal of the union twenty years before O’Connel did or before the prelates of your communion denounced him as a demagogue? You fenians forget some things. (James Joyce, Ulysses. Penguin Books,1992. p. 38)
