Second: Perhaps you are right, but that's largely a cultural thing, isn't it? There are many cultures that don't put any more weight on the importance of the female breast than on that of the male. And my own personal observations of men and women and how they react are that women are generally as attracted to an athletic well-proportioned shirtless male as men are to athletic well-proportioned shirtless women. I think our culture is moving towards admitting there's not much difference, at least. Maybe I'm completely wrong about that.
Not that I mean to imply that comics are on the forefront of feminist equality, not at all. Just that they're also objectifying (and, if I may make up a word, disproportionating) men quite a bit as well.
