The term “misogyny” comes from the Greek word “mīsoguníā”. With misos, meaning “hatred,” and gunē, meaning “woman.” In essence, it’s hatred towards women. Or any acts of contempt towards them. And there are many… male privilege, patriarchy, gender discrimination, harassment, belittling, violence and objectification.

Thispaper, published in the Industrial Psychiatry Journal states that misogyny has been around for ages. And there was mention of it in ancient Greek mythology. “According to Hesiod, before women came into existence, men were coexisting peacefully as companions to Gods until Prometheus decided to steal the secret of fire from the God which angered Zeus,” reads the paper.“Zeus punished mankind with an evil thing for their delight called Pandora, the first woman who carried a box which unleashed all evils such as labor, sickness, old age, and death.” If you ever wondered where the phrase “opening Pandora’s box” came from, now you know.

“Harmful views and tropes are now becoming normalized among young people,”saidDr Kaitlyn Regehr, one of the lead researchers. “Online consumption is impacting young people’s offline behaviors, as we see these ideologies moving off screens and into school yards.”Regehr added that adults don’t realize how algorithms work and how harmful they can be. And how their insecurities shine through in their social media addictions. Some parents aren’t seeing their own faults, and therefore could struggle to break the cycle.

And the need to diversify the sport.
