You can say this when they clothe male champions in a realistic way, give them body types even remotely approaching humanity, and create human males who are ugly for some reason other than something that applies directly to their kit (i.e. Gragas).
If you try to come at me with that garbage that men are
athletic while women are
*** objects. I'll just have you read this:

This is exactly the point I was making in my original post in this thread. You cannot make this claim. The claim itself is sexist, and demeaning to men.
Let me share a personal example from my life: My rib cage sticks out a bit horizontally. My chest will never stick out over the top of my ribcage the way Garen's does. This may sound stupid to you, but this has been a source of real concern for me in terms of body image my entire life. Most of my life I've been benlow 8% body fat (I wrestled most of my life, and have been in excellent shape) but "felt fat" because my musculature never matched the ideal I had in my head (The Rock, essentially).
This is 100% as legitimate as any woman who feels negative in some way because of Ashe's lithe figure. My explanation of sexualization is 100% as legitimate as any concern any woman may have over Miss Fortune.
To deny this is inherently sexist. The fact that men have less of a problem with being sexualized lies more in their acceptance of sexualization than anything else. If you have an issue with sexualization, examine yourself. Sexualization doesn't mean you're not taken seriously - there is not a player in this game who doesn't take laning against an Irelia, Akali, or whoever else seriously. The female champions are not seen as inferior to male champions.
As I said, the OP's topic is too vague, doesn't make any real defensible point, and flirts heavily with sexism against men.

The blatant mysandry in this thread sickens me.

You saying that we're missing the point is overt sexism, and is offensive.
