I wouldn't call this misogyny, it's objective that women tend to collectively gather towards the most popular opinions. This now happens to be civil rights, i.e. apologism towards criminals of any color except white, so women will enact virtue signaling to be perceived as part of the majority. Women are naturally more vulnerable so of course they have to rely on this tactic. In the west you can get away with calling this "empathy" because the culture heavily pushes for "civil rights", but in cultures that are still patriarchal women actively participate in the discrimination of other women and/or races.
