ABOUT MISOGYNISTS & MISOGYNISM

Misogyny is, simply put, a hatred of women. Misogynists are further defined by Wikipedia as people who
...will openly hate all women simply because they are female [or] may simply be prejudiced against all women, or may hate women who do not fall into one or more acceptable categories. Entire cultures may be said to be misogynist if they treat women in ways that can be seen as harmful. Examples include forcing women to tend to all domestic responsibilities, demanding silence from a woman, or beating a woman.
The feminist movement has been fighting for years against misogynists and all of the various manifestations of misogyny. In past decades, the movement was centered in the "Western" world, though now a special focus is being placed on eradicating the misogyny of Africa and Asia.
