In her theory of misogyny, Kate Mann argues that it is not simply a hatred of women, but rather the punishment arm of patriarchy. She believes that our patriarchal culture has trained us to see women as providers of feminine-coated goods. When women contradict men or withhold these goods, men may lash out with violence or other means to bring them back in line. This is why Mann defines misogyny as the enforcement arm of patriarchy, punishing women who deviate from their assigned gender roles.
