At least in western animation, thankfully anime has gotten more pervy if anything.

Pervy, but also very slow and boring with the "sensible dialogue" and girls beating up or toying with the boys, the latter which is a common trope now in American media. Maybe it's a way of communicating the idea that men have done enough colonial damage to this world all because of a certain sense of inadequacy?

I think you're over thinking it. It's probably just because the writers like the idea of strong, dominating women.

Good for them, but not the viewers.

Says who? If nobody watching liked that, it wouldn't happen so often. Plenty of people like the idea of strong women dominating men. Otherwise there would be no such thing as a dominatrix. By extension we couldn't have She-Hulk or any fictional amazon type characters at all. So yeah, plenty of the viewers like that just as much as the writers must have, that was their target audience apparently.

Not everyone's thing I guess.
