Have you ever had a positive influence on a misogynist (man or woman) and it resulted in positive results ? With them changing their thinking and adopting a more fair view of gender differences ?

Could you please share your experience?

I've tried so hard to get my misogynistic friend to understand and have given up. He hasn't lived life as a woman so it is pointless. You can't "convert" someone that hasn't lived it. You can only try to reason. He's not open to reason.

Ok ok maybe a simpler question

Has anyone converted a woman hater/self loathing female into someone a bit more fair and neutral willing to stop degrading women?

They don’t have to become a feminist activist who understand the ins and outs but perhaps they have to be more willing to open their ears and want to be fair?

If it's a man I don't think it's possible. I think 100% of men don't really understand feminism, or what on earth feminists are going on about, although some do try, then those ones end up sort of becoming epic mansplainers of it, sometimes even going as far as mansplaining it to women.

Not really sure about misogynistic women, that's a hard one to pin down. Some women are misogynistic in the sense they think what feminists are saying is stupid because the theory is by women, and women are saying it. If you get a man to say exactly the same thing, it's possible the misogynistic women will listen to him.
