Kate Manne
Misogyny is a hot topic, yet it’s often misunderstood. What is it, exactly? Who deserves to be called a misogynist? How does misogyny contrast with sexism, and why is it prone to persist – or increase – even when sexist gender roles are waning?
Philosopher and author, Kate Manne, gives us an insight into the deep-rooted problem of misogyny. Taking in everything from Gamergate to the US elections, Manne shows how misogyny is used to enforce patriarchal social norms by controlling, policing, punishing and exiling the “bad” women who challenge male dominance.
