Description
This Complication is only appropriate for male characters. For the female version of this Psychological Complication, see Misandrony
Misogyny is the pathological and unreasoning hatred of women or girls. A character with this Complication believes that women as a class of are sub-intelligent, bubble-headed morons whose value depends on her ability to cook, clean, and perform during sex. The Misogynist routinely makes women the objects of stereotypical ridicule. They are convinced that men are somehow superior to women, and interpret the differences between the sexes as "an excuse to assign superiority and inferiority" in the usual hierarchical fashion.
According to such a character, women are not to be trusted with technical matters (such as car repair or computer programming), and are guaranteed to collapse into useless blubbering or panic during crisis situations. A Misogynist expects female character to act as the group's secretary, waitress, cook, maid, and nurse regardless of the woman's actual role in the group, and will treat the woman accordingly.
This Psychological Complication is the most extreme form of anti-female Sexism. It is not recommended for use by Player Characters.
