What makes someone a misogynist?

[Anonymous]

I've been called this before and laugh. I don't hate women, i just don't kiss their asses or put them on a pedestal. My opinions and views are politically incorrect but that doesn't mean you hate something or someone. Most of my views make logical sense and i never use feelings when it comes to giving my opinions. But people will still throw this word around. And call anything that especially disagrees with women's views as misogyny

Misogyny doesn't mean anything anymore. It used to mean overt hatred of women, now addressing the fact that men and woman have different brains means that you hate women.

This is why I don't take feminism seriously, you disagree with them and you become their enemy.

Any guy who isn't a simping feminist soyboy is a misogynist to these toxic hoes.

It sounds like you are concerned about being labeled as misogynistic even though you don't hate women. It's important to remember that everyone has the right to their own opinions and beliefs, but it's also important to consider how those opinions and beliefs may affect others. If you find that your views are consistently being labeled as misogynistic, it may be worth examining whether there is any truth to that perception and considering how you could approach your opinions in a way that is respectful to others. Ultimately, it's up to you to decide how you want to express yourself and interact with others, but it's important to be aware of the impact that your words and actions may have.

So i have to lie and believe in things i dont actually believe in?

[8UniquelyBoring8]

Don’t lie, however; you can’t control peoples perceptions of what you say.

You nearly danced around explaining why you have been called that. No specifics of what you have said, and not only that you clicked anon for this post.

When i said that women dont belong in combat because women aren't built for war but still have a place in the military like engineering and medics, i get called that. But in reality what i say is true. Men and women are built for different things. There are some things men do better and there are some things women do better. But in terms of war and battle, there's no debating, men are better in this area

Well, we could give you generic examples or the textbook definition. However, you'd probably learn more through reflecting on what you said prior to her calling you a misogynist

Example
Woman : The wage gap is still a thing because of the patriarchy
Me : Well actually its a thing due to economic choices women make and has nothing to do with what's between your legs

Women : MISOGYNIST, INCEL

You don't get called those things on accident. You're presenting opinions as facts for one. Try keeping them to yourself.

Women : The wage gap proves patriarchy is real.
Me : Actually the wage gap exist due to economic choices made by women, not what's between your legs
Women : MISOGYNIST, INCEL
