Afaik, woman either say they have fun doing it, and follow up with what’s wrong with that?, or they say they’re pushed into it because men want it. They don’t say they’re making men better off even if men say they don’t like it.
So they’re better at shielding themselves from awareness of its effect on men’s psyches? What difference does that make? A lot of naturals do exactly what PUAs do; it’s just that non-naturals don’t naturally do it, and have to be explained the reason why it works. A woman who just “feels like” making herself beautiful, as a good in and of itself, is therefore much like a natural male PUA: she instinctively does something that works, without understanding the broader context of why it works. (Level 1 in my hierarchy.)
Also, (and this may be more interesting than the above), being resentful about women dressing up isn’t a mainstream modern point of view. It’s common in a number of religions and also showed up in communist China.
Being resentful about being in the presence of overpoweringly attractive females that a male does not know how to appeal to is actually quite common. Perhaps it’s not widely discussed in these terms, but I guarantee it’s present in the legions who seek the advice of PUAs.
