Very interesting.

We are all victims of patriarchal indoctrination and to some degree, internalized misogyny. I commend you for seeing your own conditioned responses; it takes great strength to do so.

@MagRat Hating all men is not reverse anything it is prejudice plain and simple.

I'm curious as to the label of excessive. All misogyny is too much misogyny. Any misogyny is excessive as none of it is acceptable.

@Cricket9 I'd read the question as "does it seem that there tends to be more misogyny in these comments than comments tend to have?". There is a level I am used to seeing and when I find places with less than that it stands out as unusual.

Not saying it as "I expect this level of misogyny and want that because reasons" but simply that I'm answering that particular question.

It is absolutely NOT ageist to point out a factual observation. The men making these misogynistic remarks have their ages displayed and almost every one of them was beyond the age of 60.

@Donotbelieve I agree that there are definitely young misogynists out there, but the ones I run into on this site tend to skew a little older, plus they tend to skew towards an old fashioned style of misogyny like condescending jokes and casual dismissals and things like that.

There is nothing humorous about misogyny, so you and I must be speaking of different things. As for your remark “Bailing on the site is cowardly” your judgments about what other people choose to do with their time are entirely superfluous.

So your basic position is I should expect it?

@Cricket9 My basic position is that it's a bad thing, and that hopefully most people see it as such.

You didn't answer my initial question though. Not that you're under any obligation to, of course.

Then again, I do have to confess that you slightly seem to be more interested in taking offence than in holding a conversation...

Whatever floats your boat, I guess...

Let me help you understand the topic, since you clearly need it.

1. The original post ASKED A QUESTION. If you have pertinent information in the form of an answer to the actual question, post it.

2. Misogyny is not a difference in conversation. I’ll leave it at that as it is not incumbent upon me to expand your vocabulary.

3. I am under zero obligation to do the emotional labor you seem to believe you are entitled to in this regard. Regardless of whether or not you classify my question as a complaint, if you seek an example of anything simply look for it in subsequent posts. Instead, you provided your own example by trying to make this post about something it’s not, i.e. educating you.

Oh and I think it’s cute how you included the word triggered. Really, it’s adorable; it tells me so much about you.

@Cricket9 You complain about nebulous stuff, and then refuse to provide any proof your complaints are well founded. And when asked, you respond just like many religionists that it is not your burden to demonstrate the validity of your claims.

The word, "misogyny" has many meanings. And the newer meanings are just too broad to provide any basic context. Hence my request that you provide examples.

And here again you do the same. It is somehow our responsibility to divine what you are unhappy about, and change our behavior so as not to trigger your inner hidden emotions.

Again: you started this by writing that others, particularly men, were making you feel bad.

Two ways to change that:
1 Provide reasonable proof that your complaints are justified
B Change how you feel

@Jacar You are clearly challenged intellectually. I ASKED A QUESTION BASED ON my OBSERVATIONS. You are being deliberately argumentative because you clearly have nothing else happening in your world to occupy you.

Misogyny is a clearly defined word.

No one has asked you to divine anything with regard to my feelings.

I am in no need of advice from the likes of you.

Your edification is not my responsibility. Only a misogynist would believe I have any obligation to educate him.

Blocking, in 3, 2, 1.

I am entirely certain of what the word means. I am also entirely secure in my understanding of same. Further, I have encountered an astonishing level of misogyny here. Specifically, your response. You have attempted in your statement to 1. Explain that which I already know; 2. Invalidate my actual experience with your assessment; and 3. completely ignore the total definition which includes "ingrained prejudice against women.

Your response is classic misogyny in its components and also in the way you are portraying me as misguided.

Nice try.

Aaaannnd here we go...

1. Your response is a perfect example, since you asked.
2. I asked a question based on an observation I have made. Telling me I’m not the first is not a response to the question.
3. Most important of all, I am not here to teach you and I am under no obligation to perform the emotional labor of mining through offensive posts seeking examples for your edification.

Perhaps you could look more carefully at comments and stop asking someone else to do that emotional labor for you.

1. Re-read the post; there is no "accused age group" there is a factual observation that the misogyny that THIS person has encountered on THIS site has all come from men over a certain age. As for examples? NO. The question was, "Has anyone else noticed..." Pay attention to responses that you see and look for those traits within them if you are interested in the topic; do not come here to ask me to do the emotional labor of mining offensive remarks for your convenience.
