My older sister and mom like to say that I have internalized misogyny and don’t support women because I don’t always blindly take their sides

Saying that I think my dad is being the reasonable one in a conflict, or even just that I want to stay out of the conflict altogether, is enough to infuriate them.

I remind them that I’m the only woman in the family in the past 10 years to hold a relationship for more than a year. They say it’s another example of me “selling out for the approval of a man” and imply that I’m being abused.

I hate the examples they’re setting for my little sister who is 17. They can never keep the toxicity to themselves.

They’re being ridiculous. You are right to hold individuals to account for their behaviour regardless of their gender.
