The definition of empathy is as follows:
the ability to understand and share the feelings of another.
What does it mean to understand in this context? In this regard I think understanding someone else's feelings comes from experience but it does scale with the severity of the experience. Someone may have never broken a bone but it is possible to empathize with someone who has. Most people have experienced physical pain and even if it's not to the extent of a broken bone it's usually enough that you can understand what someone goes through in such a situation. In other situations however the pain can be so extreme that it is impossible to understand. Losing a limb for example is an experience that cannot be understood by someone who has both arms/legs. You can have pity for someone experiencing such pain but to actually understand it yourself would require experiencing such pain and no sane person would willingly put themselves through such an ordeal. There is no such thing as a femcel. Any woman, no matter how ugly she may be, will always find a man who will love her. Relationships are a crucial part of the human experience and we know sex is a human need on par with eating and sleeping. To be deprived of a basic human need such as love denotes a level of harm one can only understand when they have experienced it. No woman will ever experience this pain and as thus will never be able to empathize with someone who has experienced it.
