I like your title--->it is what we all should do to this movie.
all Mark Ryden paintings and vaginas with teeth.
I found it misogynist too, and then I realized that this guy (Henry or David Lynch) can't see beyond his own genitalia and its functions to have any opinion about women or their womanly parts. This movie is all about male obsessions and male functions. The women are all strange because Henry or David have no empathy or sympathy with women. Women, like the baby, are some other strange species, like the dog in Mary's parents' living room.
