To assume that targeting all feminists is sexist is to make a sexist assumption about the composition of feminists.
It would be sexist, because it would target the philosophy of feminism. While not all feminists are female; the philosophy deals exclusively with rights of; and prejudices enacted against; women.
Thus attacking 'all feminists' is to attack that philosophy; and thus is an attack on women (feminist or not); and is thus sexist.
