If anything, it highlights the insensitivity. Its not that its debatable based on nuance that it was his girlfriend, all girlfriends, or all women.
The point is, women got offended. If the industry was sensitive to this, they wouldn't get offended.
That said, yes, using a baby would have been a much better analogy. One, babies can't get offended. Two, babies have those qualities because they are underdeveloped (which I think was the point trying to be made about Maven), a statement that is much harder to stand behind if you are talking about women, or even a woman, in general.
People got pissed so the line was clearly crossed. Looking at the picture I can easily see why. Its objectifying his girlfriend which, if done, usually implies a consistent mental theme about all women. If this is how you think/treat your girlfriend, what about other women you do not know at all?
