re: #84 Obdicut

I’m sorry, I don’t know how to interpret that. That would seem to say misogyny is equally present in all aspects of our culture, which isn’t true. And it’s certainly true that misogyny is much more often found in some religious and political affiliations.

I’m not sure I entirely agree. It might manifest itself in more obvious and more extreme manners, but I don’t think it is really any less common. I’ve seen plenty of supposedly progressive people and groups make extremely misogynistic comments and actions. I’m not trying to invoke the MBF here, since I don’t think the damage done is the same, but the thinking is still there in some form.
