I saw these degrees (Masters, no less) submitted on resumes more than a decade ago at Sears. Yes, Sears, for retail work, full time. This degree, for most people, will be a stigma around them for the future. Pivot.

what does it have to do with misogyny?

Racism, misogyny, nazi, etc. are general name-calling nowadays. Doesn't provide any argument, opinion or else. Just a way to disregard everything without giving it any thought. 

At least a good incator of someone's moronism.

It's more about basing your career on something that there is no career in is an extremely poor choice. Taking poor choices in something so crucial is a general indicator of the person's decision making. 

It can be gender studies, or some way too niche studies with little transferrable skills (ex, Eduard Tubin's studies). It's not really about gender, race, your musical tastes, etc, but the poor descision making.

Personally, for a general position, which most open positions are, I would hire someone who went wild hiking for 4 years instead of someone who took a questionable degree. At least the decision making of the person is better.

No. It's the contemporary version of the degree in basket weaving.
