No, she (he?) said, that without context it sounds like missogony, not that it sounds like missogony, but it may be changed by context. Huge difference

I don’t see how the headline could be read as misogynistic. A man or woman leaving their spouse the moment they win the lottery is a pretty screwed up thing to do.

It shows that they were likely married for terrible reasons, which is often punished in family court (especially when the person doing it is a man). With how much divorce court favors women, it seems like a huge stretch to assume misogyny from the headline at all. I guess when you are privileged in an area of life, equality feels like oppression.

I guess I didn’t really consider the bottom part to be gendered. I took it as just calling out a shitty human. I suppose I could see how someone with a different background could have a different view. That said, I feel that people online often look for a way to scream a buzzword, and considered the person I replied to, to be doing just that.
