Nowhere did I deny that misogyny is a "real thing". The fact that misogyny itself may exist, somewhere, among some men (or women), does not mean that every claimed instance or example of it is real or valid. And many of her claims are not based on things that men have actually said or done, any views they've actually expressed, how they actually behave or treat women, but rather what she imagines is in their mind, and which she can, of course, not actually know. She attributes malicious thoughts and intentions to them on the basis of nothing but her fantasies, even though, in many cases, they've indicated that they hold views regarding women that completely contradict this. To her, men are misogynists a priori, and all of their thoughts and actions, no matter how innocuous or harmless, are informed by that misogyny. (In a way, this could almost be likened to the concept of Original Sin, by which she believes men are inherently guilty, through no volition of their own, which brings us back to her religious way of thinking). But if these views or thought processes she attributes to men do not come from actual examples of men expressing these views, necessarily they must spring from her own mind, there being no other source. As I said, these are her own thoughts and feelings about women that she then projects onto men themselves. These thoughts are so deeply ingrained in her own mind and in her own feelings about women, that she assumes men must think this way as well, even without any evidence to that effect.

Of course, this is all just my opinion.

In general I struggle immensely to articulate or express anything and don't view myself as a particularly insightful person, so I truly appreciate the kind words, and I'm glad you got something out of my post. I don't know what came over me to write it. I didn't originally set out to write such a lengthy post but I got a little carried away. Maybe I'll post more in a similar vein when or if the inspiration strikes me.

Yes, I think that's certainly part of what I was getting at, these may be the types of ideas/fantasies which exist in her own mind, are her own creation; it's like she herself views women as objects, something to be degraded and abused, something to be used solely for sexual pleasure and nothing more, something without agency, inferior in a way, and she then projects these views onto men, possibly as a way of relieving guilt, and then hates them for it, unable or unwilling to imagine that they do not actually harbor these views. How she believes men think about women is actually how she thinks about women.

Her insecurity and feelings of inadequacy definitely seem to be her primary issue in that post, but it's as if she doesn't want to entirely admit this about herself, or as if she believes this to be irrational, that this in itself isn't enough to justify such an extreme reaction on her part, so she has to adduce this part about the "objectification" of women to give her sentiments some moral weight and justification. Some of the other things she mentions in that post seem to attest again to her general discomfort with sexuality in general. Her usage of the word "evil" here also reinforces the fact that there is a religious aspect to her views.

I'm getting a message is too long error so I have to split this post up a little.
