one woman's view: special report
}
Last year, Merriam Webster's "Word of the Year" was feminism. As
we near the end of 2018, this year's choice is anyone's guess, but misogyny seems like
a good candidate.
In this one short year when women have seemingly achieved so much, we have
simultaneously accomplished so very little. Indeed, now that the early waves of out
-
rage and the initial high of the #MeToo movement have passed; now that Weinstein,
Crosby, Lauer, Moonves, Ailes, Battali, Lasseter, and a cascade of others are—at least
temporarily—toppled, we're faced with a starker reality: We live among men, and
some of them subconsciously hate us.
