		<description>Humanember said: &quot;Women are not as visually stimulated as men&quot;.

Not according to the thousands of sites on the internet that strip men of their clothes and objectify them for the titilation of girls. The evidence out there puts an end to the little theory going on in your head! Look some up and view the comments!

http://www.cosmopolitan.com/sex-love/hot-guys/hot-guys-shirtless#slide-1

Girls like looking at guys just as guys like looking at girls. But guys are made to feel like perverts for looking at the opposite sex where as girls have it on a plate and aren&#039;t made to feel bad at all! In fact, soaps, films, music videos, magazines etc. they ALL regularly objectify men at all times of day, high shelf or low shelf, and women can look at whatever they like, buy whatever they like and say whatever they like without fear of being labelled a pervert. Where as a man....well, he isn&#039;t allowed to look at half naked women otherwise he&#039;s made to feel ashamed. Double Standard that was designed and implemented by the feminist agenda, an agenda which i desgned to protect women at the expense of men, an agena which has brainwashed human beings into thinking that only women can be objectified.</description>

		<description>Thank you for this post. I&#039;ve been looking for sexually-objectifying images of men that do not still portray them as completely dominant and in control. Rather the above images are very much like the portrayals of women: desirable, consumable, auxiliary objects. I.e. accessories, just like the bags and headbands and boots she&#039;s wearing. 

Also, what is up with these comments? &quot;Dude, women are like so much more objectified than men.&quot; &quot;No way, like, men are totally more objectified than women.&quot; What are we trying to say here? All objectification needs to go, be it based on race, class, sex, whatever. All objectification, sexual violence, and commodification of human beings needs to end!</description>

		<description>I really want you to notice that men are permitted to go shirtless, while a woman simply breastfeeding her child is a taboo subject in America. Most of the designers that objectify men are other men, and the men being depicted are not frail and delicate, but are muscular and powerful, they are often catering to other men, not women. Women are not as visually stimulated as men. </description>

		<description>Men have been objectifuing women for hundreds of years. It works, it is successful in the aim it tries to achieve. Men, and sometimes women, are attracted to these images of objectification. Women have it extremely hard in the realm of realizing their own worth, their own beauty. Because objectification is so successful, it is not going to go away anytime soon. It is deeply embedded in our culture. By depicting men as women have been depicted we see a new era. One of which we can stand man and woman comparatively next to eachother and decide once and for all a conclusion. Some women will like the objectification of men, as some men like the objectification of woman, some women will detest the objectification of men, as some men dislike the objectification of women, and still others will be indifferent.</description>

		<description>And which part of my post is &quot;immature&quot;, exactly? Or is it just a simple case of you not liking to hear the truth!! And you say young females are becoming more and more &quot;modern&quot;? Do you mean that they take drugs more often, smoke, dress like tarts around the city centres, binge drink, or perhaps how many modern girls think it&#039;s cool to meet a man - shag him - have a kid - dump him - screw him for child support - get a council flat - claim benefits - don&#039;t let the father see the kid - and then go it on their own like big strong girls????!!!! Or maybe you are thinking of how women successfully degrade and besmirch men in modern advertising campaigns, make them look stupid or objectify them as sex objects becaue we&#039;re living in a short era where they can smugly get away with it! No wonder so many young males are comitting suicide! They are made to feel worthless.

Is that what you call progression?</description>

		<description>Correction, Dave. No one cares about &quot;men&quot; like YOU! And it&#039;s obviously for very good reasons according to your immature posts. And as for your remark about young males rising up in 10 or 20 years time, you have to be completely stupid to not realize young females are becoming more and more modern, and will rise above men before that happens. Women are far more progressive than men.</description>

		<description>Oh for goodness sake, get a grip! Mothers kill their children far more than fathers do. Fact - look it up. I think rape is awful BUT there are other sides to the story that often go unheard. Girls get away with false rape claims all too often and men aren&#039;t protected from this despite the fact that it can ruin innocent lives. Men get raped too, but that&#039;s not as bad, is it!

There is no support from Governments regarding domestic violence against men either, despit the fact that, arguably, that just as many, if not more, women commit violent acts against their partners - look it up. Quite simply it goes unnoticed because men don&#039;t tend to complain, probably due to their protective instincts. Nobody cares about men. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LGZIQaCaW0I

Life these days is all about women isn&#039;t it. It&#039;s all about how we should protect women, often at the expense of men. Look at the Titanic as a classic example of how men&#039;s lives are treated as second class, expendable etc. Nobody cares about mens feelings. There is less spent on male health. Education these days supports girls (and the results go hand in hand with the trend). Fathers don&#039;t have the same custody rights over their children. White males are victims of positive discrimination in the workplace. They are the victims of male bashing in modern advertising. It&#039;s funny when they get kicked in the groin in a film. You can say anything you like about a man. You can make programmes that strip them of their dignity and make them look foolish because they are a man. The list goes on and on and on...

Nobody cares about men, not even men. But I&#039;m telling you now, give it 5 to 10 years and the young males in society are going to realise what a stupid, uncilvilised nd unfair society it is that they are part of and, trust me, there will be a massive backlash. THey will not put up with this crap for much longer.

It makes me laugh how stupid people are and how indoctrinated they have become what with all the feminist brain-washing that has taken place over the last few decades. Look how people complain when a music video shows a woman dancing showing a bit of flesh. See how they are so quick to place it in the sexist objectification catagory. THey say how bad this is for young girls and boys, firstly because it puts pressure on the girls to look good and secondly because the boys are supposedly not allowed to look. YET, those very same complainers are completely and utterly oblivious to the half-naked male hunks flexing their muscles for the benefit of the female audience, despite the fact that this, too, makes many young lads feel shit about their body. But who cares about them, eh! The girls are allowed to see hunky bare-chested men everywhere. Double-standard.

I could go on but I really can&#039;t be bothered because I happen to know that I&#039;m about 20 years ahead of my time and people like you are 20 years behind. You&#039;ll see, just watch, it&#039;s the next big thing!</description>

		<description>Hello Dave,

I welcome you to open your eyes to what&#039;s going on globally, and in the West specifically, to women and girls before you jump to erroneous conclusions about how much more objectified men are than women. 

You know, I hope, that father-daughter rape is the most common form of child sexual abuse in the U.S. 

The average age of girls--yes, girl children--entering prostitution and pornography is thirteen, due to male pimps lying to the runaways from incest-perpetrating and otherwise patriarchally abusive homes.

There are many hundreds of thousands of girls and women being trafficked internationally, primarily for the &quot;pleasure&quot; and profit of men.

And that men get away with battery and rape most of the time, and most cases of men beating the crap out of women and raping them are not reported at all.

When men are asked to describe what they do, in day to day life, to avoid being raped, they generally scratch their heads. When women are asked, the list is long and men respond to it by saying &quot;I had no idea!&quot;

When a segregated group of young men were once asked what they feared most from women, the answer was &quot;being laughed at&quot;. When a group of young women were asked what they most feared from men, the answer was &quot;being killed&quot;. So please stop putting out this nonsense about how things are so, so bad for the doods. Whatever objectification men get, it&#039;s not tied into a gendered political system in which women let that initial interpersonal or industrial objectification be the doorway to terroristically harassing and sexually and physically assaulting men and boys.

If we understand &#039;objectification&#039; to be part of women&#039;s subordination--as part of the economic discrimination and aggressively abusive activities men enjoy unleashing on and against women and girls systematically and usually with impunity, your argument sinks like lead and stinks worse than the apparently unrecognised privilege in your comment. That would be the privilege to not know what women and girls are enduring the world over that you, Dave, are not.</description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hello Dave,</p>
<p>I welcome you to open your eyes to what&#8217;s going on globally, and in the West specifically, to women and girls before you jump to erroneous conclusions about how much more objectified men are than women. </p>
<p>You know, I hope, that father-daughter rape is the most common form of child sexual abuse in the U.S. </p>
<p>The average age of girls&#8211;yes, girl children&#8211;entering prostitution and pornography is thirteen, due to male pimps lying to the runaways from incest-perpetrating and otherwise patriarchally abusive homes.</p>
<p>There are many hundreds of thousands of girls and women being trafficked internationally, primarily for the &#8220;pleasure&#8221; and profit of men.</p>
<p>And that men get away with battery and rape most of the time, and most cases of men beating the crap out of women and raping them are not reported at all.</p>
<p>When men are asked to describe what they do, in day to day life, to avoid being raped, they generally scratch their heads. When women are asked, the list is long and men respond to it by saying &#8220;I had no idea!&#8221;</p>
<p>When a segregated group of young men were once asked what they feared most from women, the answer was &#8220;being laughed at&#8221;. When a group of young women were asked what they most feared from men, the answer was &#8220;being killed&#8221;. So please stop putting out this nonsense about how things are so, so bad for the doods. Whatever objectification men get, it&#8217;s not tied into a gendered political system in which women let that initial interpersonal or industrial objectification be the doorway to terroristically harassing and sexually and physically assaulting men and boys.</p>
<p>If we understand &#8216;objectification&#8217; to be part of women&#8217;s subordination&#8211;as part of the economic discrimination and aggressively abusive activities men enjoy unleashing on and against women and girls systematically and usually with impunity, your argument sinks like lead and stinks worse than the apparently unrecognised privilege in your comment. That would be the privilege to not know what women and girls are enduring the world over that you, Dave, are not.</p>

		<description>How can eople complain of what happened historically when they are now all dead!! It&#039;s today&#039;s children we should be thinking of and objectification of men is far more rife than that of women. It&#039;s just that women moan about it more when an advert shows a bit of female leg or a film shows a female bum. And yet men are supposed to shrug their shoulders and take it like a man when bombarded with adverts showing shirtless hunks all the time or films and dramas showing detailed shots of genitals.

It&#039;s a double standard and it stinks. Women are all smug about it at the moment but the middle-aged white male is the last minority group yet to be protected from societies onslaught of male-bashing and male objectification. Give it another 10 years and the young males of today&#039;s generation will put a stop to this because enough is enough!!</description>
