It's especially bad because Tatsuya's repression makes it obvious that the male gaze is the omniscient narrator's (i.e., the author's) rather than a character's.

Exactly. Keep in mind also that Blanche is lying about being for equality.

I'm not a big fan of "the villain doesn't really believe his ideology" in general; it tends to strike me as an easy "out" to avoid the protagonists having to engage with the villain's arguments.

I'm actually somewhat in sympathy with Tatsuya and friends on this point, because I'm a pretty squeamish person who wouldn't want to be a surgeon or soldier for any amount of money.
