Uncovering Our Hidden Misogyny
by
Kirsten Powers
and
Shari Thomas
The problem of misogyny is not one relegated only to foreign countries, but can be found in America as well. In fact, some of the signs are so common-place that it has become almost unrecognizable; side comments in meetings when a woman offers an idea, the overuse of the female body in advertising, the objectification of women in film, music and art are all symptoms of a much greater disease. Yes, we have come a long way from the days portrayed in television shows like Mad Men, but it is still true, many men privately do not respect woman.

I'm sorry but I don't understand. Are you the same Mike Foster that co-wrote Deadly Vipers? I think what you are discussing here is amazing and important, but I'm wondering if you are that person, because that book is full of macho-isms and denigrating stereotypes about women. Could someone please help me understand because this is a total disconnect for me.
But thanks for this discussion. I thought you asked some interesting questions.

Would this male interviewer really have spoken for so long at the start if he had had male interviewees?
