That's actually a really good question. I don't personally think so, but I can see other women might. Similarly, I don't think "balls" is any more derogatory than "testicles." But I think the "grab" part is really what makes it derogatory, rather than boob or breast. "Can I grab your penis?" isn't much better for me than "Can I grab your cock?" Does "May I touch your lovely boobs?" sound any more derogatory to you than "May I touch your lovely breasts?"
