We can all think of reasons to explain reasonably why any individual man's ideas might be engaged w differently than any individual woman's
-
But the problem of women's ideas not being as open to critique as men's *because they are a woman* is what is being addressed here.

True. If it didn't ignore the nuance of why people might respond on a certain way to either situation.
-
We have to be able to address the ways people could be treated differently *because of* their gender. It matters.

If you don't want to address the premise as it is - people are more accepting of criticism of unsubstantiated claims by men than by women...

...then don't but it is OK to address this. I want to for reasons I've given. Those people are feminists & I feel they're disempowering us
