This paper presents work on detecting misogyny in the comments of a large Austrian German language newspaper forum. We describe the creation of a corpus of 6600 comments which were annotated with 5 levels of misogyny. The forum moderators were involved as experts in the creation of the annotation guidelines and the annotation of the comments. We also describe the results of training transformer-based classification models for both binarized and original label classification of that corpus.
