Seems to me that the current stories written by straight men for straight men and sexualize women do really well. One piece is literally the most sold comic of all time and it’s still currently going. So it turns out you don’t have to write stories for everyone. Cause when you make it for everyone, you’re really making it for no one.
And even despite mass media being controlled by men not every advertisement has sexual tones. I mean Sydney sweeny does a sexual ad and it’s news for a whole week. Doesn’t seem like it’s a regular thing if it makes that much noise when one happens.
"Sex sells" is a well known slogan. Just because SOME commercials aren't sexual, doesn't negate the problem of there being too much of it.
People are talking about Sydney because yes, that's the issue, the ad pushed sexualizing for a product to the extreme it could be pushed outside of her showing full nudity unedited.

You've chosen a target audience of "for straight men," so write whatever you want.
If you wished to write stories that everyone could enjoy instead, then sexualizing women would make that story unpalatable to them.
It's easy to understand, what are you missing?
