Misogyny, a Jungian Perspective, by A,Baring.

 From a Jungian perspective, the phobic fear of woman in patriarchal culture reflects the fear of the evolving organ of consciousness — the ego — being swallowed up by the primordial undifferentiated unity, the maw or womb of nature.

For men who are deeply insecure in their masculinity, whose internalised image of woman is undeveloped because woman has never been valued for herself, but only for what service she can render to man, an independent and educated woman will present a threat—unconsciously, the threat of castration and death.
