I’ve noticed in other threads that when we are called a misogynist, we are usually offended or annoyed in some way
Because we KNOW it’s a deflection and have deconstructed it a thousand times. The person making the accusation hasn’t the capacity to understand….
It’s silly, unrealistic and impossible to hate women as an entire sex just like it’s silly, unrealistic and impossible to LOVE them all.
Come back at them with that, and they have no more to say about it.
You’ll be met with totally blank stares.
even if the label fits to at least some degree.
Even if the label fits to some degree its’ totally irrelevant.
You can f~~~ing hate brussel sprouts, but you don’t spit on them when you pass the produce section.
You just don’t buy them. THere’s the difference.
Explaining it in the most simple terms to these people is like trying to explain the alphabet to a 6-month old.
If you’re not a misogynist then what’s the difference between your stance on women and a misogynist’s stance?
I’ve never seen a man stick his finger down a woman’s throat to get her to lose weight. But I have known several women who have done that to THEMSELVES.
Which one is the “misogynist?”. Women actually treat themselves (and each other) worse than any man’s “opinion” on them.
Just my opinion, but it seems we don’t want to be labeled a misogynist because of it’s negative connotation, even though it fits. As well, the definition is broad, as there is a huge difference between ‘dislike’ and ‘despise’.
Now you’re explaining yourself. That’s what the accusation is DESIGNED to do.
You’re not even REQUIRED to “like women” in the first place!
If a woman wants to be liked… it’s not up to YOU. It’s up to HER.
If 5 out of 5 women behave like bitches, you’re not SUPPOSED to like them in the first place! Consider the books “why men love bitches” and “why men marry bitches“.
“FROM DOORMAT TO DREAM GIRL” is the tag line.
These books are written by bitches – for other bitches(!) – and they wear the title around their necks like Olympic Gold. So contrary to the female option on this, there are man who WON’T F~~~ING LIKE OR MARRY BITCHES — EVER.
Those “bitches” who are proud to be bitches don’t have any business slinging the accusation of “misogyny” around. Men are not REQUIRED to love or marry bitches. And it’s time they are educated on that.
I wouldn’t want people to think I despise women when in truth, I only despise several aspect of their nature.
Do you despise rats? Do you despise squirrels? Because a squirrel is just a rat in a cuter outfit. But you still don’t own a squirrel for a pet or want one in your house.
Chances are even a “misogynist” treats women better than they deserve. And as long as you treat women better than they deserve, nobody gets to call you a misogynist. I don’t need to EXPLAIN that I’m not a misogynist because I greet women with “good morning / afternoon / evening” before they even greet me at all.
BOOM not a misogynist. End of discussion. It’s complete bulls~~~.
I treat women I don’t even know better than they treat mee.
The accusation of “misogyny” is a DELIBERATE DEFLECTION away from a totally justifiable criticism of very real actions, attitudes of the female collective. It’s designed to make you explain yourself as if your problem with it is YOUR problem. As if YOU have a problem.
It’s not. And you don’t. So don’t fall for it.
“YOU SEEM LIKE YOU HATE WOMEN!! YOU”RE A MISOGYNIST”
“No. I hate bitches. I’m a bitch-sogynist. Do you mind??”
“um…. let me get back to you.”
If you keep doing what you've always done... you're gonna keep getting what you always got.
