This has less to do with anime and more to do with nerds/geeks willing to throw away everything for acceptance.

What do I mean?

You're correct.

I said this on another subreddit.

The mainstream which is women really hate nerds. It is fine to take nerd products but it hates nerds.

And other nerds are fully on board with throwing other nerds under the bus if it means that they can be accepted by the mainstream.

The thing with nerds/geeks is that they are still human. This means they are a social creature. But due to being a nerd/geek, they are hated by the mainstream which is really women.

So nerds retreat to hobbies like video games or anime or DnD, whatever.

Yes, they likely really just like those things but it also serves as a way to cope that they aren't mainstream popular extrovert people.

But if there is a chance for acceptance to the mainstream and with it success and status and women?

Said nerds will happily throw everything such as the hobby, fellow nerds, etc under the bus to let it be crushed.

I made a post about debunking the myth that women are more sexualized than men in TV series a while back, and the same myth is also being spread in anime and gaming communities. In regard to nudity, It is actually far easier to show male nudity compared to female nudity in Japanese TV. You can show prolonged uncensored in-your-face male butt just fine in any anime on TV, but most female nude buttshots are usually obscured by scenery (steam, etc.) or very brief. Most of the time they only uncensored the female butt in the Blu Ray version of the anime. Moreover, in mainstream TV anime, young boys/shota full-frontal nudity are very common (Japan said that it's because of "state of innocence") compared to full frontal young girls/loli full-frontal nudity which is almost non-existent.

They will say "ooh but-but male nudity in anime are mostly played for jokes!", but by using their "degrading sexualization" standard, male characters are actually being degraded WORSE than the females. These male characters often got beaten up in the nude, CFNM (Clothed Female, Nude Male) scenes, punched or kicked in the groin while being nude (see: Horizon in the middle of nowhere anime) or even got killed horribly while being nude (Numa Seika's nude death scene in Akame ga Kill, HxH human dogs scene, Pokkle's nude death scene with lingering shot of his abs). Moreover, the general rule of thumb in anime is that an anime adaptation of a manga will most likely censor or downgrade the female fanservice/nudity, but they will most likely increase the male fanservice/nudity instead (e.g. they added nude Zeke Yeager scene in anime). They won't dare applying the same "nudity played for jokes" standard for any female character.

Not to mention that women like to "sexualize" male characters through other means outside of nudity like shipping characters (fujoshi), status, relationship dynamics, etc.

Anyway sorry for the long nerd rant. I'm just sick of these hypocrites, and I bet that they would cheer if an anime had plenty of male fanservice instead, like what happened with Yuri on Ice and Free!. The point is that they hate to see men (especially straight men) being happy, so of course they think that female fanservice is unneeded.
