More like they collaborated with the terrorists to plan the attack

I think this is referring more to maternity leave, 'women's problems', Etc. than just "oh you're a woman and therefore less good at things than men".
When someone says something like this, there can be good reasoning behind it; it's not inherently sexist or misogynistic.
