Does that even make sense to you? I mean, yeah. My mom sucks in some ways. In fact, my last therapist was much more concerned with my mother's influence on me than my dad's, to whom I always attributed the core of my problems... and believe me, the problems are vast.
So, seriously? You hate women because you've had one shitty (granted, influential) woman in your life? I rarely say this, but rub some fucking dirt on it.
You need to learn to let things go. Life isn't always butterflies and dandelions. If you're so influenced by someone who's moral core isn't as good as yours, let them go... even if it is your mother. If you truly are a misogynist, that's a really big deal... ESPECIALLY being that you're a woman.
Oh, and misogyny is not a condition. It's an attitude. OP, if you just think, you can do better.
Let me go into some detail as to why I don't like women. I'm just going to be blunt. They gossip, they don't think for themselves (always going with the concensus), they don't appreciate decent men, they twist people's words and try to manipulate and shame, they play damsel in distress when it suits them and miss independence when it suits, they think that they have to behave like men to be equal (which ironically also makes them misogynists), they don't take accountability for their actions, they live worthless empty lives, and I could go on and on. Even though I dislike women in general I don't have too much of a problem with women of a few decades ago, they seem far more real and had much more substance. These days it seems like all they want to do is live pretentious, empty little lives such that that depicted on stupid shows like sex and the city and others. And they defile their own bodies with stupid piercings and tattoos which I think are absolutely revolting, it's like they don't even like themselves, to the point where they try to hide their own skin, which is like hiding themselves. My mother tried to get me interested in feminism when I was about 16 and I found it to be disgusting and I didn't want to get involved in any of that crap. I know that there are different types of feminism but whenever I talked to her about the very worst kinds (ie those that say that male-female penetration is rape), or those that advocate that men be sidelined or even removed from society altogether, she just said that I'm being stupid and that just because of a few bad eggs that doesn't mean that feminism is bad. She couldn't even conceive that if she really thinks they're bad eggs then she should be vocal in condemning them, rather than trying to shame me for pointing it out. For these and other reasons, I don't have much respect for women. But even though I'm prejudiced I think I could probably admire women from past eras, or women from certain other countries. And all of this is the real issue for me, and that's why I've had a few therapy sessions to deal with it. Not to change my mind, since it's obvious that the state of women is in the trashcan, but to just deal with my issues and my anger.
