Like... have they seen this administration? these douchebros are too emotional, too.

You sure can be a bigot against your own group. There are definitely plenty of misogynist women out there.

It's rather sad to see. Especially in an older woman. Because I get being raised in a society that devalues women, and starting to believe it. I think a lot of women have to acknowledge this at some point, and fight against it. Even a lot of men I know, who ive had conversations with, admitted to haveing mysoginist views when younger and had to address them.

It's not surprising that women, too, would be affected by beliefs promoted through media and social interactions.

When I was a young woman, I often found myself blaming other women for misogyny in men. Kinda fucked up looking back on it. But I did.

But as I got older, even by age ~20, I realized it's all b.s. and I was being tricked into victim blaming.

But to be a woman of 30 or older, you should have enough life experience at that point that you know it's all b.s. Any woman of that age has no excuse to perpetuate oppression of their own group.

Yeah internalized racism research has found that's pretty much how it works.

People will accept bigotry against their own group and even promote it , a lot, but they distance themselves by assuring themselves that they aren't like "those ones".

They are better. They follow the right rules.

The specific phenomena is called cognitive dissonance and the distortion that comes along with two competing beliefs.

They're not like other girls. They're "pickme" girls who think being on the inside makes them special by proxy. Like Serena and all the wives in Handmaid's Tale, they think being part of the in group mea they're part of the superior class. And maybe they are, until they step one toe out of line from their designated lane.

Well. It's tricky. They sure do like the benefits of feminism. But they deny it.

Yet these “conservative” women enjoy and utilize all the benefits and rights feminism brought them so they’re in fact feminists. Why aren’t they home making sandwiches for their horde of children? Shouldn’t they be seen and not heard? Make it make sense. Definitely some cognitive dissonance going on here.

Progressive Liberal women when they find out conservative women are genuinely pro-life.

A few seem to have. MTG for one.

Republicans believe there is a perfect ideal way for the world to be, and anyone who doesn't want it to be that way is a problem.

The real problem is that this "Perfect World" involves a God to do a lot of heavy lifting, a God who isn't there.

It means not seeing women as equals.

Believing they are lower class. Lower intellect. Lower ability to make decisions, etc.

Pretty similar to racism with its own unique stereotypes.

I mean. All bigotry cones down to the same thing. Believing some group is less deserving of the rights and privileges you have, because you believe they are lesser than your group.
