To play devil's advocate for a minute I'd also say that objectifying comments towards women get treated slightly differently because of the context of women being far likelier victims of sexual assault and violence, plus there's the significance of women's historically unequal role in society. I often think that feminism bogs itself down in becoming overly analytical and too aggressive, but to dismiss all feminists as man haters desperate for female supremacy is a bit silly
