Support for violence to resist feminism was highest among adolescent boys (28%), followed closely by adolescent girls (21%).
Perhaps most alarming: roughly 40% of boys aged 13 to 17 agreed that women lie about domestic and sexual violence.
These results raise crucial questions going forward. We don’t yet know how these views have changed over time, whether they are on the rise and what the links are between violent extremism and the negative treatment of women.
what qualifies as a misogynistic belief? we have to be clear about that.
in 2026 there lots of people who think and argue that women and men having equal rights is misogynistic. like i believe that, and i say that, and i have had people in real life, tell me I’m a misogynistic piece of shit for thinking that. because their POV is that women deserve more rights than men, either to ‘right history’s wrongs’ or because they think women are inherently disadvantaged/inferior to men and must be ‘boosted’. or see trans rights, as misogyny.
