Sexism is bad. This isn’t sexism. It’s not misandrist in any way.
It’s about life, because the character looks around first to make sure they’re alone before speaking, because they’ve learned to anticipate the reactions of men with fragile egos. The character also says “sometimes,” which is not a generalization.
There is nothing wrong with men sharing private conversations about their experiences, but they don’t get challenged as often as women do. Thus, the comic.
The comic is about fragile egos. So is my story.
It’s about individuals feeling attacked by a private statement not directed at them, ironically making it about them by reacting.
“Private statement not directed at them” — the characters are in public, making misandrist comments about the people who respond.
And it’s an obvious allegory for public online posts.
Yet again, flip the genders. If men make misogynistic comments in public, should they be immune from even the slightest pushback?
No. Sexism is bad regardless of who is doing the sexism, who they’re saying it to, or who can hear it.
But the OP is rage bait and a lazy Kafka trap, so I won’t feed the trolls any further. You’re welcome to have the last word.

Is it misandrist to correctly identify that some men react to women talking in this way?
