That misogyny or bigotry requires "intent" is so ludicrously divorced from reality I don't know where it came from. I've heard the most ridiculously hateful and racist things prefaced by "I'm not a racist but..." Clearly in these people's own minds they aren't racist/misogynist, but when you are pushing plainly racist or misogynistic views it doesn't matter. The statements are misogynistic. If you think you can convince your boss your intent wasn't to be bigoted so your bigoted comments aren't actually bigoted then be my guess. I am confident you are unlikely to succeed. |

The definition of misogyny literally includes intent, perhaps you’re thinking of something other than misogyny.
Here’s the definition from Wikipedia [0]… “ Misogyny (/mɪˈsɒdʒɪni/) is the hatred of, contempt for, or prejudice against women or girls. It enforces sexism by punishing those who reject an inferior status for women and rewarding those who accept it.”
You also didn’t answer my question of what negative information you wouldn’t interpret as misogynistic. Is it possible to report anything negative based on biological sex or gender that you don’t interpret as misogynistic?
How can these differences be studied and discussed to learn more and overcome harm caused toward women?
