General anger and resentment towards men

Over the last few years I have learnt alot on here (you're all fab by the way!), and have reflected a lot on my past and previous relationships with men (friends, family and romantic relationships).
I have developed a real underlying anger and seeping resentment towards men in general. I feel bad about this but can't help see how the patriarchy has moulded alot of the men in my lives. Even those who would claim they're feminists have an underlying tone of misogyny, I even see it in DH.
Has anyone else gone through this and how have you overcome the bitterness? It's eating me up.

I'm struggling with just this at the moment, OP. It's horrible, isn't it?

Sorry, I've no good advice to give but would like to see what others say.

Perhaps don’t have people in categories. “Men” or “feminists” or whatever. Treat each person as a fellow human being.

I can see your problem, still being married to one, and realising he is 'one of them'.

Frankly, I just avoid them as much as possible. That is about all I can do.
