Misogyny part six- the end

In part one I listed; patriarchy, male privilege, discrimination, sexual harassment and violence against women, and the sexual objectification of women. I said we’d look at them one by one. In parts two to five, I covered patriarchy, male privilege, discrimination & sexual harassment and violence against women. So, at last, the end.

The sexual objectification of women – sexual objectification of girls and women contributes to gender inequality, and is associated with a number of physical and mental health risks in women.

The sexual objectification of women involves their being viewed simply as an object of male sexual desire, rather than as a person. Which situations are seen as objectionable varies among the different feminist frameworks, and also quite significantly among individual feminists. Ifeminists in particular, and some cultural (though we’re really radical) feminists do not in general regard stripping, prostitution, and taking part in pornography as objectification, while others – some radical, pretty much all Marxist/socialist - feminists do regard these as objectification. All, really, see objectification of women taking place in the sexually oriented depictions of women in advertising, art, and the media, and women being shamelessly judged sexually and aesthetically in events such as beauty contests. No prizes for guessing correctly my view on the ethics of SG. I’m here.

“Some feminists and psychologists argue that sexual objectification can lead to negative psychological effects including eating disorders, depression and sexual dysfunction, and can give women negative self-images because of the belief that their intelligence and competence are currently not being, nor will ever be, acknowledged by society. Sexual objectification of women has also been found to negatively affect women's performance, confidence, and level of position in the workplace. How objectification has affected women and society in general is a topic of academic debate, with some saying girls' understanding of the importance of appearance in society may contribute to feelings of fear, shame, and disgust during the transition to womanhood, and others saying that young women are especially susceptible to objectification, as they are often taught that power, respect, and wealth can be derived from one's outward appearance.”

And we’re done.
