The latter. It's more than obvious that not all white people are racist, it's obvious not all men are sexiest, and it's counter-progressive to not focus on the actual issue. It's an attempt to undermine the experiences that someone has, and makes out that particular cause as something that shouldn't be talked about because not all X does Y.

"911, some men have broken into my home and are threatening to rape me."

"Well not all men would do that, I wouldn't do that."
