has anyone ever heard the phrase 'self perpetuating hyprocrisy' when refering to something like the more you scratch a mosquito bite, the more it will itch?

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.You probably did a Google search on the phrase, Wordlover but, if not, it throws up only two websites which use the exact phrase. One of them refers to feminism as a 'self perpetuating hypocrisy'. Presumably, this means that women knew their demands were based on false beliefs and yet those very beliefs strongly expressed caused other women to state the same demands...ie the hypocrisy was 'self-perpetuating'.
Whether the existence of these two web-pages makes the phrase "legitimate", as you describe it, is up to you, I guess.
For any feminist reading this, the views above are my interpretation of someone else's views...not mine!
