If someone or any organization would suggest training or display of female art with the restriction that it only present works that might be described as sensitive or nurturing I would think (or hope) that artists everywhere, both male and female, would take offense. It sounds like a large steps backwards.
Local and regional art shows in every community in the country as well as National Watercolor and Portrait Societies among others always have strong representation by female artist (not to mention SOG) and to claim otherwise is specious. (1%?)
It almost sounds as though the "Modern Art" threat/menace/argument continues and now revealed as masculine controlled/inspired. Warriors and Warships? Other than the musty corner of an old museum where would one find such subjects?
