For our first unit of the course, we used Freudian concepts of gender difference to frame our study of misogyny. Now that we have moved on to second-wave feminism, we will use feminist approaches to misogyny as exemplified by Dworkin’s essay. How does Dworkin (and/or other writers whose work we read for today) define misogyny? How is her (or their) explanation of gender difference distinct from Freud’s?
