Where is your precise evidence of misogyny?

Is it possible the lawyer is proceeding toward that particular strategy out of a notion that "like favors like" and those not alike can harbor biases toward each other and this was just a cautious lawyer's way of eliminating that possibility?

Maybe that is just one of the possible biases the lawyer eliminated. That doesn't necessarily mean they are misogynous. Maybe there are statistics that say, on average, overweight women do tend to side against skinny women and the lawyer is looking at it from a purely numbers perspective.

In a similar way of eliminating the possibility for abuse, not all men walking toward a women on a dark, lonely street are going to attack them but it wouldn't be misandry if a women walked to the other side of the street every time as a precaution.


It's also the job of the lawyer to anticipate unflattering biases on potential jurors as a service to their client.
