My female friend had a female doctor try to talk her out of a contraceptives prescription; that she was 28 and should be having babies...
It's not a misogyny thing, per se, rather just people that define their lives by the templates supplied by societal stereotypes. Never take advice from a person that doesn't think for themself.
This is literally institutional misogyny.
It is many things. Institutional misogyny can be a cause for some.
Oh, for sure. I meant that in this specific example
are called institutional misogyny.
Women are able to perpetuate misogyny. Your comment seems like you think misogyny can only happen to a women from a man. Not sure of your actual intent, but it comes off that way.
Doing something permanent at 28 could be shortsighted and I would agree with the doctor in that case but surely a prescription is just temporary? I don't see why the doctor would advice against it
Because the doctor is stuck in the mindset that women are baby factories and they should be that above whatever else they want to do in life.
