Misogeny is an overarching
woman-hating, woman-harming
tenet of
society.
Feminism centrally attempts to first
bring attention to all misogenist elements of society, therefore all
social occurences or
constructs that are causing
violence to women. Feminism then attempts to elminiate these
structures that cause harm.
Radical feminists see elimination of the
overwhelming social structures of
patriarchy and misogeny as
critical and
necessary for the
equality of women to ever be achieved.
