The Internal Logic of Misogyny
Sexism, or the belief that men are superior to women, is morally bad. Misogyny, or the aggression towards women who upset that worldview, is also bad. But the problem, says Cornell philosophy professor Kate Manne, is that misogyny is logical, and even to be expected, when your starting point is predicated on male dominance. Manne illustrates how this plays out, and why misogyny itself is so hard to stop. (The Brian Lehrer Show)
