That’s another good point. Expressing negative feelings towards someone you’re sleeping with doesn’t make you a misogynist just because that person happens to be a woman. He’s just a bitter, cynical person, writing a bitter, cynical song about a less than satisfactory relationship.

And you have to listen to The Night Josh Tillman Came to Our Apartment against the rest of the album, especially The Ideal Husband. He’s mocking himself as much as the unnamed woman in TNJTCTOA. That lyric isn’t misogynist so much as a recognition that we’re all assholes, even him. Especially him.
