The aim of this brief review is to discuss internalised misogyny to highlight how this old problem could be a 'new' way for understanding gender inequity, sexual harassment, abuse, and discrimination in Obstetrics and Gynaecology. It is important to first contextualise misogyny and its historical origins.
