Why “misogynist” is a great word

MISOGYNIST — [Noun] A person who harbors a deep-seated prejudice against, contempt for, or hatred of women. From Ancient Greek μῑσογύνης (mīsogúnēs), from μῑσέω (mīséō, "to hate") + γυνή (gunḗ, "woman"). First attested in English in the 1610s. Unlike a "misogynistic" atmosphere or a "misandrist" opposite, the misogynist is the individual source. It is the sneer that silences a contribution, the cold dismissal in a boardroom, the calculated insult disguised as a joke—a quiet, enduring poison that predates and outlives its louder eruptions.
