About This Quote
The things we say to ourselves about ourselves and the people around us can be just as important as what we say to others. "When I am drunk I think I am a misogynist" is the type of thing that you say when you're drunk and not thinking straight. It's damaging and offensive because it is really saying, "I am a hateful person who agrees with the things I'm saying."
