gay men are the origin of misogyny, for that, every male supremacist and misogynistic society was deeply homosexual and pedophilic.

Much more likely that women accuse misogynistic men of being homosexuals and pedophiles as a way of blackening their reputations (which are plenty black already). It's slander used to influence public relations, not facts and figures from actual research.
As always, bigots have nothing to support their arguments: all they can do is lie and lie and lie.
“gay men are the origin of misogyny,”
“for that, every male supremacist and misogynistic society was deeply homosexual and pedophilic.”
Most pedophiles who have any attraction to adults at all would be considered straight men so minus points for the linking of pedophilia and homosexuality. I have known many gay men who are deeply misogynistic, but I don’t think sexuality actually has any role in the true nature of misogyny. It’s about power, the sexual aspect is just a mask it wears and a lame attempt at justification.
Edited to add: There might be something to the idea that a male supremacist culture is homoSOCIAL. Men who despise women are more likely to want to hang out with other dudes.
The fact that obsessing over and demonising women as targets of male desire is such a fundamental and pervasive feature of misogyny should really make this self-evidently false. In fact, cognitive dissonance between one’s heterosexuality and one’s misogyny seems, to me at least, a very common major driver for misogyny.
Furthermore, from what I have seen, misogynistic homosexual men tend to be motivated by heteronormativity - they are not attracted to women as they “ought to” (even if they otherwise would be “Real Men”), so (of course) they lay the blame on women.
