Women: How do you feel about women who don't care when they are objectified?
don’t care to walk around with their professional and academic resume hanging on their neck, and don’t mind men lusting after them on a purely sexual basis?

Are they harming the feminist movement?


No, I don’t think they’re harming the feminist movement. Feminism is about choice. Its their body, let them do with it what they will. As a liberal feminist or independent feminist, I have nothing against porn stars, strippers, etc. It is their body and we can NOT impose our views or morals onto them. To do so would actually harm the movement.

I may not understand WHY these women like to objectify themselves, but I recognize their right and choice to do so.

No, they’re not harming the feminist movement, but I personally find them to be objects of derision. Fortunately, they don’t care.

no, they aren’t because it is their right to make that choice. it doesn’t affect me, but i do feel like they are short-changing themselves.

To me, the term "feminism" has been villified. To me, it merely means requiring equal status to men, including pay and benefits. If women want to be objectified by lusting men, let them. I feel we will keep moving toward equality whether they want it or not.

Are feminists the girls who dont shave their armpits?

This is a two-ended sword. On one hand, you can say these women are demeaning themselves and other women. On the other, you can say that by them wielding the sexual power over men, they are excercising their control over men.

I thought the whole point of feminism is to have the freedom to be what you want, as a woman?
In which case, if that is what the woman wants, then you shouldn’t judge her choices.

I think they’re silly, for lack of a better term, and may in ways hurt the feminist movement, but I really think they make the smart women seem smarter.

I am not a feminist. But they are in fact harming feminist principles. If feminists believe that the objectification of women causes direct harm then, they should agree that all objectification is bad, even in this instance.

they can do whatever they want with their bodies. it’s called CHOICE.
personally i prefer to get attn through more meaningful ways.
but thats just me.

Wow, I think I started a GWS movement or theme tonight, lol. I didn’t know I had such a presence on GWS, jk *silly smirk*

i think it shows how shallow and looks/sex based our society is. the truth is, to a lot of these women value their looks more than they value any professional or academic record. why? because that is what society values. lets face it, a "hot" woman is much more highly respected in our society than a woman of good character or a successful woman. and in my generation, it seems that way for guys as well. nomatter what i achieve, i don’t feel i can ever make up for my lacking in the looks department.

I don’t mind being lusted over, and if that’s called being objectified by men, I could really care less…

If a woman is beautiful, what’s so wrong about her getting into a job that shows her body? She can use her looks as an advantage, and I think that pisses other women off, so they start making insults about women who do use their body as a way of making a living by saying she’s an "object" I think women use this word more than men do actually!

Look at it this way, some women lack the talent and education to get ahead in life any other way. But why should they be relegated to some low-wage menial job just because they offend your puritan sensibilities?
Logic316 | Jan 30, 2008


Men "lusting after" women is NOT "objectification." And advertising (or not) your professional and academic credentials has nothing to do with it, either.

Real objectification occurs when humans are no longer seen as human, they are reduced to nothing more than "a body," a thing.

And women who don’t mind that kind of objectification are only hurting themselves.

I could never understand a woman who behaved like that, but she’s of no concern to me.

What could THIS dream possibly mean?
Well it was like I was conscious… But I wasn’t… It felt so real… And it’s like I entered another world, like I didn’t think it was a dream. I felt pain, I felt gravity on me and I felt everything quite really, and it’s like I was just like I went to bed

I was confused as hell on what was going on, but I was in this deep base thing and it was all dark and we had these flashlights and I was with this crew, apparently it was 2027 or something, and we were exploring this strange dark area, apart of a squad or something, and we were underground near Las Vegas… It was empty and I lost myself from the rest of the team, and I saw these weird things, and some glowing thing lead me to this button, I pressed it and the dark suddenly began to have weird mechanisms start back up with a whiring noise and everything started working again and was flushed with the glow of weird colored lights, and this giant door unlocked…

Like I heard the locking mechanisms come off then suddenly saw this figure slowly walk towards me and it was some… Deformed monstrosity of a human, and I had nothing on me and I started freaking out as it started looking like it was having a seizure, and then more monstrosities started coming out and a video was playing since everything coming out like some dead guy’s wish saying if you were watching this, get out, this was something the government could never atone for so I started to run for it but these things like scratched on the walls and some of them started killing themselves like banging their heads senslesss against the wall and tearing each others limbs off, and I met with my team but one dude started screaming as this thing like outrragously tore him apart, it was like having a seizure and it’s limbs were falling apart but they were razor sharp and it’s rip cage burst out of it’s stomach and shred him to pieces…

Of course I’m freaking out like wtf, wtf, and then this one dude got caught by this guy’s razor sharp arm bones that like ripped out of it’s arm and extended and started shredding him up, and he screamed that I screwed every man, woman, and child on this planet, didn’t I know what I was doing, agony, crying, and he was torn to shreds too…

They were starting to swam and I ran for it but they were all freaking out and people were going in the wrong directions or different directions and I had no idea where I wanted to go and they just seemed to be everywhere and there was this cyborg thing with long tndrills that was piercing the monsters through their heads and lifting them off the ground but they still squirmed while being pierced and lifted, and like, the bones seemed to break loose of their skin and fall down as a mess of skeleton, guts, and organs that morphed themselves into weird twisted shapes and slooshed around waving razor sharp bones around, and there was this screeching sound, and through some miracle I found the entrance, like a giant hole in the roof led to by some metal-frame stairs, like fire escapes…

And I looked down only to see these weird twisted things scaling the walls with their bones piercing out of their skin, and in a panic I’m just running up the stairs but these things are fast climbers, and the door above starts having an emergency lockdown, and I rush and barely make it through, thinking I’m safe. But I’m in a desert and these things start popping out of the dry, crumbly soil, so I’m running for it, and I see Las Vegas… But these things are popping up all over and running across the crumbly ground while their skin seems to crumble off like the ground and their twisted insides reveal, some even begin hooking to each other and eating each other…

I wake up when I’m being hunted and entering the city though


It needs you to shorten your novel.
