Agreed. You should have so added political leanings.

Misogyny can be caused by all men. Gay men, black men, Muslim men or Hispanic men.
I am curious when/if we will ever see a big SJW feminist outcry on misandry.

The generation of women coming up won't suffer these kind of men, or the women who give them power, the way previous generations did. It's a new century. Thankfully.

You go redwood! You’re more of a real woman on your worse day than those liberal kool-aid drinkers could ever hope to be!

I wonder how many times jams has called out any of the hundreds of misogynist liberal men we read about all the time?

Hey jams, try these on for size.

Bill Clinton, Al Franken, John Conyers, Ben Affleck, Nelly, Chris Brown, Morgan Freeman,Tom Brokaw, Ryan Seacrest, Tavis Smiley, Robert DeNiro, most hip hop/rap performers, and on and on.

Let’s also include many devout Muslim males in the misogynistic category, since women are treated like crap under Islamic rule.

Gee jams, I guess it’s not just white, conservative men who can be misogynistic. Who knew!!

"These kind of men" exist mostly in your head. It's your narrative of Evil White Males. Just admit you hate men, you will feel better for your honesty.

The preponderance of rape that is prosecuted is committed by males. If males are raped they should report it just like women should. Likewise with sexual harassment. That it is not reported by men is not anyone's fault but those not reporting.

Even those that report, they get ridiculed

I disagree about what is going through womens heads. I raised 2 girls. I remember back when they were young teenagers they'd want me to go to the mall with them. There was a reason, the harassment. They could rarely walk through one even with me without getting some lewd comment, even a threat, thrown their way. 12, 13 year old girls stepping out into the world get an education real quick and learn to deal with such YOUNG MALE behavior.

MAKE NO MISTAKE. A lot of this behavior FROM MALES is carried far into their adult lives.

Women (especially younger women) have to deal with this crap on a near daily basis. To this day. Just last sunday some drunken jerk started "putting the moves" on my daughter in the freaking Safeway. The individual wouldn't get out of her face until her husband caught up with her and told him to move along or end up in the emergency room.

Deep down women are constantly having to be on guard mentally. I don't know how deep this furtive, cautious, defensive instinct goes but it carries great weight in their thoughts for very clearly evident reasons. "Those kinds of men" exist in womens heads because "those kinds of men" are still crawling around out there.
