"New aspects of the misogyny that impacts girls and women worldwide continue to emerge every day. However, recent movements (e.g., #MeToo, Time's Up, the Women's March) indicate a strong hunger for a meaningful resource for thoughtful activists. Impassioned but practical, this book discusses the social contexts of misogyny, such as toxic masculinity and rape culture. It traces the history of misogyny and considers its meaning today-what is new and what is old. The author also proposes strategies for effective feminist action. Written for advocates of gender equality who are already aware of misogyny, the book includes Action Steps as tools for activism on both the individual and political levels. Misogyny is a timely text that offers concrete guidance as we strive for the egalitarian society that, despite all setbacks, we are capable of achieving."--
"Impassioned but practical, this book will call out what needs to be called out about misogyny and propose strategies for effective action. Most of the current books on feminism are "wake up calls" but this book is aimed toward the persons who are already aware and want to fight misogyny"-- Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

For example: (p.78) the Rolling Stone article about rape. Rolling Stone retracted the article after it was discovered that the source was unreliable and making things up. They didn't fact check that story. And haven't fact checked other stories. It's been failing on the journalist front for a while now. The author does say that Rolling Stone did retract the story but doesn't mention that the source lied and that the publication has a history of not fact checking. Even though false rape allegations are only between 2-10% of all rape allegations, those false allegations make it more difficult for rape victims to report their rape and be taken seriously.
Elliot Rodgers. The author kept mixing up dates and didn't include the fact that he went after white women because he believed they rejected him for being biracial.
In Box 5.1 in Chapter 5 about Toxic Masculinity, she ignore parts of the conversation that demonstrate toxic masculinity and focuses on how these two men are pro-gay and women. She ignores the red flags for two tiny steps forward in other areas.
There are more examples but I had to stop reading. (
