    Misogyny is not a product of capitalism and existed much before capitalism did in other economic systems, but capitalism heightens misogyny. Misogyny and sexism ended up being tools used to capture the reproductive labour of women. Silvia Federici discusses it in the context of feudal -> capitalist Europe in Caliban and the Witch.
