DEFINITION · LEARNING NOTES

Misogyny

Μισογυνισμός

Short definition

Hostility towards women, including punishment of those who challenge expectations of female obedience.

Εχθρότητα προς τις γυναίκες, που μπορεί να τιμωρεί όσες αμφισβητούν την αναμενόμενη υπακοή.

Context & interpretation

Examine the behaviour and its context; disagreement alone does not establish misogyny.

Εξέτασε τη συμπεριφορά και το πλαίσιο· η διαφωνία από μόνη της δεν αρκεί για τον χαρακτηρισμό.
