Nepsotic has raised a lot of points and most of them are bullshit, but it's late and I can't be bothered dealing with it.
I'll make one point: Sexualisation of women in the media is often done in a way that robs them of their dignity. Sexualisation of men in the media is usually done in a way that increases their dignity and makes them look stronger. There's a lot of history behind it, including the fact that women are generally shamed for being sexual while men are applauded for it.

Excuse me? Robs them of their dignity? There's a pretty big fucking assumption in there that a woman can not be proud of her own body and doesn't want to voluntarily show it off.
So you're basically saying that
this is making the guy look stronger and
this is demeaning to the girl, taking away her dignity? (Both links aren't full nude, but probably NSFW). If that's what you're saying, holy shit.
This is a two way street. Women enjoy seeing a naked in-shape male body just as much as men enjoy seeing a naked in-shape female body. The notion that women somehow don't enjoy their sexuality as much as men do (or shouldn't be allowed to) is completely preposterous.
Sexism exists because humans are sexual creatures. Men lust after beautiful women, so men put beautiful women in their commercials, movies, games to entice other men. Because they know what men like.
Flip the coin around and there are the women who lust after beautiful men. So the women put beautiful men in their commercials, movies (and sometimes games) to entice other women. Because they know what women like. There's a reason Christian Grey from 50 Shades is a tall handsome muscular man and not a short, bald, fat guy with glasses.
It happens equally in every medium but for some reason it's wrong for men to look at sexy women because women are told this 'objectifies' them. Which is bullshit. I can't for the life of me imagine how a man staring at a girl's ass for 2 minutes because it's so perfect can possibly be seen as insulting. If anything it's supposed to be a compliment.
