I don't think that scene is sexist, though it's written in an awkward way. When I saw it I figured that what she meant by "I'm a monster" was that, you know, she'd been trained to be a killer, not the sterilization thing, but maybe that's too charitable. I think the movie's treatment of Black Widow (and women in general?) overall is pretty horribly sexist though. It's just not a very good movie though, and for reasons other than sexism.
