Was genau ist Misogynie? Worin besteht der Unterschied zum Sexismus? Und wieso bleibt sie bestehen, wenn sexistische Geschlechterrollen im Schwinden begriffen sind? Kate Manne zeigt in ihrem viel diskutierten Buch, wie Misogynie in der Politik und im öffentlichen Leben verankert ist. Sie entwickelt ein Verständnis, das Misogynie als den Versuch auffasst, eine Unterscheidung zu treffen zwischen den »schlechten« Frauen, die die männliche Vorherrschaft angreifen, und den »guten«, die den Männern die aus ihrer Sicht zustehende Anerkennung und Fürsorge zukommen lassen. Die »guten« Frauen werden geduldet, wohingegen die »schlechten« kontrolliert, unterworfen und zum Schweigen gebracht werden müssen.
