I fully expect to be downvoted to oblivion for pointing this out, however it seems to me that the supposition that the word &#x27;bro&#x27; is inherently &#x27;misogynistic&#x27; is not only absurd (bro is simply a shortening of the word brother, after all) but it also reveals a deep-seated devaluation (and even demonization) of maleness which I find disturbing.
