I was told that I am a misogynist specifically because I am proud of the fact that Hedy Lamar invented WiFi.

Is feminism so out of control that the fact that I am male everything I say is just wrongful towards women?

Not sure how that qualifies as misogyny.

How tf does that make you a misogynist? 😆

It would not have been "wi-fi" as now understood of course, but she was a physicist and electronics engineer making significant contributions in her field. And why not? Unusual for her time because old ideas about what women could achieve still lingered in much of "Western" society.

I have no idea if you're a misogynist, but Hedy Lamarr's inventions were mostly exaggerated. The patent for frequency hopping turned out not to be useful.
Don’t blame all of feminism on one foolish comment. Feminism should’ve protected Roe v. wade.
Not in sane circles.
