There's portrayals of women being sexual/sexy that you can 'fap' to that aren't gross. No one is saying women can't ever be sexy. But there's a difference between a woman presenting herself in such a way because she feels like it or a woman writing a woman presenting herself in that way because she feels like it, and objectification.
Ryuko is shoved in a uniform she hates and has to 'accept it' or it won't even work. She's ogled by creepy dudes repeatedly and the narrative treats it as funny. There are sexual assault jokes.
It's a similar problem to many 'panty shots' in anime. The character is often embarrassed/humiliated/upset by it. They're not in control of the situation. And if you need women, fictional or otherwise, to be forced into sexualized situations that they don't want to be in so you can have 'fap material' than frankly that's indicative of a problem and a creepy power fantasy that you have, and it should not be something media promotes.
