Well I confess that I may not be the greatest expert on insult words. I don't know what you mean. Are you saying that Cunt Lover has been used as an insult for men in the same way that nigger lover has been used as an insult for white people? I didn't know. That would only work if you bought into the racist and sexist messages in the first place. I was called a nigger lover in high school because I supported civil rights. This was in Texas in the 60s. It didn't bother me at all. I knew civil rights were the only morally decent solution to prejudice.
