> women will oppose AI images of women because the AI images are too attractive, and I'm starting to wonder if that's true.

Right... women will oppose AI because it's too hot and not because gross chuds have been using it relentlessly to create deep fakes of their likenesses and CSAM of their kids.



> will oppose AI because it's too hot

This is actually a defensible position. It's not either-or - the "gross chuds" doing things you mention are worrying, too. But providing unrealistically attractive depictions of a human body is also a problem. It's been a problem for ages - all the girls and women who try to compete in beauty with celebrities and models (without a team of specialists supporting them), only to ruin their bodies through anorexia or bulimia, or their minds with depression, deep insecurity, and an inferiority complex, exist and deserve mention. AI(-generated images) is not the reason, but fits "well" into the preexisting social problem, and has a chance of intensifying it on a global scale.
