https://www.thehrdirector.com/features/diversity-and-equality/mans-view-stopping-misogyny-gender-inequality-work/

1. What does misogyny at work look like?
- Ingrained prejudice against women, some men reject misogyny by saying "I don't hate women, I am happily married".
-Most men equate the word misogyny with the word "hate", more so deals with the level of respect
- Discrimination, unequal pay, insults, objectifying women's physical appearance, taking credit for their ideas, etc

2. What is the root cause of the problem?
- No single root cause becuase it is societal and systemic
- some psychologists argue that men were suppressed or traumatised as young boys
-the need for better male role models, especially in the crucial primary years

3. The solutions
- Understanding that there is no one solution: unlikely that a short term response will get to the root cause of the problem
-Engage men in conversation: many may not be aware of misogyny and gender equality, develop levels of self-awareness
-Clear company policies: policies against bullying and harassment, rules apply to all, strive for an equal workplace
-Close the gender pay gap: on average women earn about 20% less than men
