    I just RTed something about misogynoir. Sometimes this gets a reply of "I don't doubt it's real but I hate that word because that's not how words works, you can't just combine roots from different languages like that." 1. Words DON'T work. 2. Sure you can. 3. It's a portmanteau.

        I mean, this is really it, right here... it's not terribly convincing that the word coinage is the only part that bothers them. I mean, I know there are people that insufferably pedantic about these things. But they *really* come out for misogynoir.https://twitter.com/adnohr77/status/1269318522137538560 …

        Imagine reading a post on harassment and abuse and the thing that sets you off is the word coined to describe it. Also: do they know how language works

        They absolutely do not know how words work. They’re ignorant along multiple vectors.
