I don't get it, is being a misogynist a prerequisite for being a male philosopher?

“Women are suited to being the nurses and teachers of our earliest childhood precisely because they themselves are childish, silly and short-sighted, in a word big children, their whole lives long: a kind of intermediate stage between the child and the man, who is the actual human being, ‘man'”

how to continue after this wretched statement??? I did anyway. I cannot stand pessimism but I liked the first two essays and the essay on aesthetics, the rest were just especially- in the words of his mother- irritating.
