When You Have A Misogynistic Father
I have explaining to do
In social situations, I sometimes just have to explain to friends that, “Uh, forgive my dad—he’s from a different time.” I know it’s not really an excuse, but, I need to tell them something. When he makes certain chauvinistic assumptions (like assuming the male cashier is the restaurant owner, not the nicely-dressed female beside him), I need to provide some explanation.
