This question is pondered in The Anti-Mary Exposed by Dr. Carrie Gress, which I've recently read. It's excellent! Having no time at present to write a proper review, I'll offer that of Andrea Picciotti-Bayer:
Gress finds the roots of the anti-Marian spirit in the early feminist movement of the 1960s. She recounts the movement's founding and the dramatic influence it has had on how women think about themselves today. Her history lesson is not glamorous. It is not chic. It is downright ugly and reveals how "feminism" from its infancy indulged in the vice of envy...
Read it all, nay better. Read the book!
