I didn't know what misogynistic meant, but I've always liked learning new words. I learned that context is a good way to figure out what a word means, and so I thought well, the context is me! so it must mean something like awesome or clever or awesomest. But then obviously Anonymous must know what misogynist means because she used it in a sentence, which is what you do when you know what a word means, and she used it in context with creep, which in my opinion is not very awesome so I guess context was not the way to go here.
Sometimes you can figure out what a big word means by looking for smaller words inside it that you recognize. Miso-, well that's fermented bean paste, actually the japanese kind, you probably had miso soup before. The japanese miso is pretty tame, I think. The korean kind is called dwenjang, and it's pretty rank. If you're not korean and you like dwenjang jjigae, that's pretty impressive, because that's not your usual bibimbap or bbq meat that americans might eat when they feel like being exotic. (don't get me wrong tho, I love bibimbap and kalbi.)
-gynistic... this part kinda look like gynecologist... which I know is a .... ahem... a lady's hoo-ha doctor. So then if you put the two together, you get japanese lady's fermented bean paste hoo-ha. WTF??!! Ok, so I guess figuring out what the word means by looking at the root words won't work here, either. (although you might find it interesting that sushi, another japanese food, has a funny slang definition given the context of this blog post. I go to urbandictionary.com when I can't figure out what the heazy kids are saying these days)
So I just looked it up in a dictionary. (m-w.com, not urbandictionary) and I found
misogyny: a hatred of women
What?!! Noooo.... I don't hate women... I found out in middle school (hehe, good times) actually that I really like women. Maybe even a little too much. I'd probably go so far as to even say I looooove women. Maybe even more than I love tacos. Mmm... taaaaaaacos....

You mentioned "tacos" in a thread about women. That's so funny. Especially since we had this in the news recently: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060516/ap_on_fe_st/restaurant_name_1
yes, anonymous, good catch. i also like sushi, and peaches, but not really roast beef so much.
