This image illustrates why pure "equality" isn't the right goal pretty well I think. I'm not saying all men or any men need to be OK with anything. It's not payback, it's that each has a different impact based on context of the reality that we live in.
So we want people to have an equal outcome. That's perfectly fine, and something I fully support. The difference is that no one in the right image has to be treated badly for everyone to be happy. If we accept that, in the abstract and lacking full context of possible consensual behavior between adults, objectifying people sexually is treating people badly, then we shouldn't want it for anyone, nor find it amusing.
OK well if you find objection in the depiction regardless of gender I respect that
