This clip makes it clear that it's not just about having attractive body parts - it's how the body moves and talks etc. The "male" character stands on his own while the "female" character wiggles all over/around him, talking with a simpering flirtatious tone.

I agree it’s not the same because *deep breath* although men and women can both be argued to suffer from unfair superhero body and personality types, men dominated the industry, and as women weren’t represented it’s exploitation that needs immediate addressing.
Is that close?

Even the fact that we are given views of the "female" character's body from every angle while the "male" character's body is not focused on at all. Not displayed for consumption.

Thats fine except the "male character" and "female character" are established to be like this. Batgirl doesn't move like this, neither does Batwoman. These are established traits of specific characters, not sweeping generalization of both genders.

I'm not talking about specific characters. The reason it's so weird to see "Batman" moving that way is because NO male characters are written in such a sexualized manner. Where they are objectified and put on display for consumption. Unless you can name one.
