Negative gynocentrism refers to an overriding worldview focused on negative behaviors of women. The negative female behaviors in question may be true and common.
Gynocentrism refers to a dominant or exclusive focus on women in theory or practice. Such dominant focus can be positive (women are wonderful), or negative (women are destructive). Centering perspectives in positive or negative appraisals of women is by definition gyno-centrism.
Non-gynocentric perspectives, by way of contrast, focus primarily on men's issues, goals, values, or interests without the need to axiomatically juxtapose those things with women's needs, wants, presence or failures.
