What I mean is, would it be objectification if it were her hand you could see? Or perhaps her face?

I think the objectification comes from ones own perception of how you process what you're seeing. We all spend so much time listening to society and doing what's expected of us that we don't stop to think about how it's ok to admire something just because it's there. We don't stop to see the beauty of things. We only stop to think about how we can add some negative connotation to things...like a set of beautiful breasts. I'm not explaining what I mean very well, so I'm sorry for that, but I hope someone will get it. If not, that's ok too.
