Public Service Announcement: I’ve noticed on multiple occasions recently that the term misogyny is being used to label situations that would more appropriately be labeled sexist. Sexism means prejudice against women. Misogyny means active dislike or hatred against women. Choose your words carefully. Your words affect reality. Reality is significantly linguistically constructed.
