Why does the title need to be worded like that? The worst part is that I’ve only seen them phrased like this with women celebrities.

Target is both to hit your sense of justice (I’m a male feminist) but also engage the innate urge to see the photos. Example
Anne Hathaway criticized by chauvinists for being too sexy on the red carpet
Oh wow, I hate sexism so much I better check out these photos!! so I can…support women?
It CAN work for men but is usually not demeaning. Chris Pratt went from adorable pudge to sexy muscleman, click here to see him shirtless! Not the same I guess.
My instinct would be to click just to find out what exactly is “too sexy” for chauvinists. Same logic applies to the original post’s article I guess.
I think these articles exploit this instinct. And I’m pretty sure it works for all kinds of people. When you put an opinion piece in some other people’s mouth, everyone will want to find out if the opinion makes sense to them or if it’s completely outrageous.
