While there have been some instances of misogyny from the fanbase, it's not always against women. When Hold My Hand was released, there were people who complained about a man dancing to a female song. Same with the official choreo of Bad Romance. Also, the twerk mode from JDM got some controversy, even though a man starred in it.

From what I can gather, people liked Make it Jingle because it was a cute little reindeer twerking and doing other silly moves, not because a man was under that costume. I'm not sure if it would get the same sentiment if, say, Mehdi or Jerky Jessy were twerking in humanoid outfits. Not to mention, there were some fans who hated MIJ for that very reason.
