The Difference Between Sexism And Misogyny
Episode 14, Jun 27, 2022, 07:00 AM
In this episode we explore the difference between two important words in feminism: Sexism v Misogyny. It is important to understand the difference and how to use these words so we can empower ourselves in our understanding of what harm is being done in a situation involving either.
These two terms can be confused, which often then gets criticised or can result in the words losing their power.
When we understand the difference between sexism and misogyny, we then understand how to navigate these invisible forces, how to point them out, how to empower ourselves and others.
These two definitions are also important in understanding what is happening in the world with regard to abortion rights.
I reference in this episode the works of Kate Manne and Caroline Criado-Perez.
I also give examples from my own life of sexism and misogyny.
I give some tips on how to be involved in your own activism or feminist work in a way that doesn't exhaust you.
