I would still consider that a bad scene even if it was all guys. A slow motion to show all characters in close-up one by one, in the middle of an amazing and fast battle, is out of place and breaks the rhythm, that's what makes it noticeable. You had a lot of bad ass moments for women during this battle, you had women saving men, and everything felt natural and normal, in the flow. But cut everything, teleport 10 characters at a same place out of nowhere, do a long individual close up and slow motion, and that right here is unnatural and forced.

EDIT: They should have done that at the beginning of the battle, when everyone was arriving by the portals. That would have been natural there. Not in the middle of the fight.

The thing is, we will never know if you would or would not even blink if it was all males or even all white males.  I know for a fact, I probably would think nothing about it, hell, I would even say if the whole movie did not have one woman or any character other than all white males I probably wouldn't think to much about it.  Feature a movie with a cast that features no white males and then we start talking.  It is what it is when it comes to movies. 

If the scene was all asian, all black, hispanic you would notice but if the scene was all white males you would not.  Anything other than the norm is always noticed and criticized or not depending on the SJW line you sit on.  It's the reason people comment about it.  The scene stuck more in your mind because it was all women then the slow motion or anything else.
