For a long time it has been okay. Because men had all the institutional power and women didn't. So men got to do what they wanted to... like have a beautiful woman carry the round number during the fight. The people in power said "this is okay" and since the people without power didn't have a very loud voice...
This has gone on for long enough to become a cultural norm. It's normal for fights to have a ring girl.
This is considered okay because we're nowhere near real substantive equality. We're closer than we were... we've come a long way, but there's still more work to be done.
