FWIW (and probably not very much) I don't think what mrs m-v has done is the same thing as what inspired the OP of this thread. The use of "she" or "her" for inanimate objects (critically, possessions) has long been the stead of men. And in that being the case, has perpetuated the concept of objectification and ownership of women, by men. A woman doing the same thing, does not have the same inference.

Mrs m_v has two bikes, she has named them Priscilla and Rod. Neither really has a gender t the names maybe suggest a gender.
I’m not going to mansplain to her that Rod is ok but Priscilla isn’t.
