5 reasons that men objectify women

Jump to Comments
  1. image51.jpgWomen objectify themselves.  No, really!  It is no good pretending that women want men to notice them for their inherent qualities if all they ever ask is how fat an arse they have or what’s different about their hair.
  2. Men objectify everyone.  It makes it so much easier for them to carry out those other tricky roles they’ve been assigned such as killing people to protect fat arses and ripping off workers in poor nations to put designer labels on perfect female backs.
  3. It’s a mark of respect.  Instead of being offended, women might consider thinking of themselves as objects d’art. They may be seen as mere things but at least they are things of beauty.
  4. It’s nature.  Men treat women as objects; women treat men as means to the accumulation of objects.  Nature in perfect balance!
  5. Laziness.   After all, it is so much easier to think, “Nice legs.” than “I wonder if, like Schopenhauer, she believes that human will has ontological primacy over the intellect; in other words, if she believes desire is understood to be prior to thought and that will is prior to being.”

  • I am a woman, and all I ever ask is NOT “how fat an arse [I] have and what’s different about [my] hair.” Don’t be so quick to make assumptions that will only further your case. Not everything is black and white.

  • Get back in the kitchen and make me a sandwich, Cori.

    • These are the type of comments that I despise……..you can be a chauvanist, you’ve gotta right, but you dont have to be obnoxious about it.

  • “other tricky roles they’ve been assigned such as killing people to protect fat arses and ripping off workers in poor nations to put designer labels on perfect female backs.”

    1. If killing people is so “tricky”, I’d like to see women try it.

    2. Most workers in poor nations are damned lucky to actually have a job when there are thousands more waiting for one.

    3. Notice, in history a country has been by a woman in VERY few cases. Pretty tricky role, i think.

    Why has there never been a woman on the moon, Cori?
    Because the moon hasn’t needed cleaning yet.

    Because the moon hasn’t needed cleaning yet.”

    LMAO!

  • All I know is that I have objectifyed women my whole life, a few months ago, (11 to be exact) I recieved treatment for addiction and have cleaned up my life after many years of disfunction. I find that I can`t stop looking at women on the street not for any particullar reason, other than I have programed myself to do it! The reason it has become a problem for me is as follows, my new fiance feels I objectify her by looking at another woman and it hurts her because she says that it makes her look bad because that girl is saying to herself “that guy was checking me out when he should be paying attention to his own girl”? I understand that way of thinking and I really am trying to stop and I love my wife dearly and I will be devistated if we do not work this out! There has only been a month pass since she has brought this to my attention and I know if she really belives that I love her she will cut me some slack and give it some time for me to change my behaviour, it is not going to change immediatley. I have left a message for a local counsilling firm that can help! I hope she can try to understand it is a behaviour that I can obviously can not change on my own! I love my wife to be and I will do anything I have to, to change my ways! Todd.
