Either of your augments make no sense in any other contexts of people, and is only "acceptable" because it's men.

>It's difficult to land on any language describing a misogynist, sexist work environment without needing to consider the emotions of those who's participation is most important in confronting the issue.

Why should socially acceptable language be any different here? Do their emotions not deserve respect too? Where else can you say "well, there isn't a better word for it, so that's what we're calling them regardless of their feelings"
