Ogling for women carries with it the implied risk of rape due to natural differences in physical strength, and women experience rape at a much greater rate than men, so that threat would have higher salience than any equivalent gender-based insecurity.

At a greater reported rate than men, and even if true it doesn’t take away from the fact that men are still very much victims of rape.

So, no, they’re not just worried about it because of “insecurity of their masculinity”.
