Great, so now misogyny is all the fault of women too

In https://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/the-mysteries-love/201502/12-ways-spot-misogynist, Berit Broogard tells us "Misogyny is typically an unconscious hatred that men form early in life, often as a result of a trauma involving a female figure they trusted. An abusive or negligent mother, sister, teacher or girlfriend can plant a seed deep down in their brain’s subcortical matter."  Fantastic. I never realised that patriarchy is actually the response of traumatised men to abuse by women. Throughout history, men have been forced to develop laws, religions, cultures and structures restricting and oppressing women, to infantalise, objectify and rape them,  all because their Mummy didn't love them enough. Hang on, who neglected or abused their Mummy so that she was unable to love them enough? 

I'm sorry, but this is hogswallop. Misogyny exists because we live in a society that allows and enables it. In fact, one that has required it. That rewarded it. Blaming women for men that abuse women sounds suspiciously like a bit more misogyny. Men who behave like this do so because they believe it is acceptable. Because they are rewarded for it with pats on the back from their peers and women who tolerate it. If women's abuse of men creates misogyny, well, the rate of misandry out there should be through the roof. Now, if only I stopped spanking my partner, maybe the patriarchy would all go away ...
