Re: hate women
I'm truly hoping that your post is a complete joke, but I will proceed as though your inquiry is a sincere one.
Hatred of women is not illegal and it is not sexual harassment. Generally, telling women that you hate them and have hostility toward them is not illegal, unless it is accompanied with a threat of force.
However, in the context of employment, housing, education, etc., an exclamation that you hate women or a display of hostility toward women would likely subject you to liability.
This is a problem for which you should be seeking appropriate medical treatment.
