"Of course, living as male tends to invalidate any opinions I might have about the presence or lack of misogyny in cultural works."
It's a little known side effect of taking T: as 3-d spatial perception improves, the part of the brain used to recognize misogyny shrinks. Actually, the same regions of the brain are used for both, so if you have one, you don't have the other. Also, your life experiences evaporate as your voice deepens and your ability to have empathy declines in proportion to facial hair growth.
Sorry for the snark. The reasoning of which you speak frustrates me quite a bit.
