Niccolo Makes Me a Misogynist: A Look at Dean Winchester's Violent Tendencies

I am going to open this meta with the statement that I am, probably, likely to be considered a violent person. I hit things. And people. Usually with my cane, Niccolo Machiavelli. I also throw things. And like shooting my compound bow. And hitting things.

I like Dean a lot. Probably, partially, because he also hits things.

Now, I've seen around the internet that it seems that a lot of people don't like Dean hitting things. They say that he likes to pick on women. That's he's mean to women. That he's written as a misogynist.

Well, thinks I, I am not so sure about that. I hit women, but I don't think of myself as a misogynist for a variety of reasons, but partially because I also hit men.

So, I decided to analyze exactly who Dean hits in Lazarus Rising.
