She's probably trying to make a completely valid point about the objectification and sexualization of women, but she picked the absolute worst metaphor for it, grabbing the crotch of male statues is an incredibly common thing.

I wonder, if you made a list about every groped statue in the world, would there be more male statues or female? Is there a bias towards male gropers, or perhaps a bias towards male statues that counteracts the previous bias?

How do you account for statues that get groped equally by both sexes? Are there any statues for same sex groping?
