Why do you consider the very suggestion misogynistic (leaving aside whether it's true)? "Misogyny" means "hatred of women," in the literal sense. What you're stating is that biological essentialism implies misogyny, which isn't true. As a counterexample, there are radical feminists who self-described misandrists who argue that men and women act differently for inherent biological reasons, and they aren't misogynist.
