Plus I doubt there are many gay men who run around not seeing a problem with physically beating women left and right.

definitely, but often i feel that when a gay man does exhibit misogyny, it is excused because he is a gay man when misogyny is incorrect regardless of who it comes from.
do i think they're on the same level? no. misogyny by straight men is on a MUCH larger scale than that of anyone else.
do i think both should be addressed? yes.
poor girl. She really wants attention so bad and the fact her internet hipster fans encourage her to keep acting like this is worse this is the reason homegurl is just a twitter celebrity.
Oh well she could have worded it better though.
