I get why people think Holden is annoying and a misogynist rn in this part of the book, but I don’t think he hates women at all. I think he just hates everyone, and if any respects women and cares about them more than men.
Throughout the book so far he has been characterized as troublesome and disobedient so I think it fits perfect, and I see some self destructive behavior can come out of that ego/self hate.

Holden is a jerk and antisocial but only like that to super annoying people. Sure, maybe he’s overdramatic but I see myself in him a lot. He’s a teenager talking to people that are objectively disingenuous, and I think him responding with an attitude just makes him real. He’s not only mean to other people but himself too, so I just find that even more honest. Idk
