Its women he can't empathise with so she can't say "imagine you were a woman", so she gives the closest analogy where he can still imagine himself as man.

The best way for him to understand womens rights is by being called gay then? So gay men are the closest thing to being both a woman and a man? WTF?

She didn't 'call' him gay. She presented a hypothetical situation to get him out of his singular perspective.

She literally said 'well you might not like women' only as a response to his apathy about what happened. In what world is that the same as calling him gay?
