On the other hand, there is something incredibly funny about a man so uncomfortable in themselves and their identity that they think a woman in a video game is an issue.

No, the issue you have is internal. If you aren’t comfortable in yourself, the most manly thing you can do is to come to terms with it and not worry about everyone else. Real men, who are comfortable being men, aren’t constantly worrying about what others think about them, or what other people are doing. They let others do what they want, because it doesn’t actually effect who they are.
