The objectification of women - Page 3

Griff · 05-10-2008, 07:12 AM

One thing for women to consider about this is the way most guys' minds work. Most of us focus on one thing at a time. If our thinking drifts from particle physics to boobs, we'll only be thinking about boobs in that moment. Some guys don't switch to the she's a fellow doctoral candidate channel before going back to physics. That's a problem. Does this make any sense?

Yes, Griff, it does. Men are linear thinkers. :P

No Bri, men are lingerie thinkers.....lingerie

Trilby · 05-10-2008, 11:36 AM

D'Oh! You're right, Dana!

Ok. This is part of a one minute film. It's just this all the way through. Some guest.... I didn't think something like this would bother me, but it actually does. See, it's ok if I photograph my butt, but if someone else is recording it without my knowledge, I don't like it.

where's the link, again?

Cicero · 05-10-2008, 06:04 PM

The vid. hopefully will not be posted on the internetz! I cannot guarantee this though... ;(
lol! You aren't getting one.

In fact that screen shot should have been even smaller. I wish I had a head....guess not..

I'm all for being objectified.

Go for it, guys.

Objectify away.

I'll just sit over here and bask in a rubenesque way.

xoxoxoBruce · 05-15-2008, 11:47 PM

I do, I do.

wolf · 05-16-2008, 10:39 AM

You are so good for me, baby.

Trilby · 05-16-2008, 03:56 PM

i like being objectified, too. Mostly by everyone. The only people I don't want objectifiying me are the ones who say, "My arm is swolled," or "you're oncet, twicet, three damn times a laydeeeeeeeee...." coz I hate them guys.

xoxoxoBruce · 05-16-2008, 11:02 PM

Your wish, is my opportunity.

There's a brilliant line in an episode of Cape Wroth where a female character who has allowed herself to be drawn into a destructive and abusive extra-marital affair, says:

"Any woman who says she doesn't want to be objectified is lying."

Cicero · 05-17-2008, 09:20 AM

lol! I just noticed that earlier in the thread I said something cheesy about els. being the only person that liked my butt....Then later after someone took a one minute video of it, along with someone else's, I complained.....
People should just be honest...We like your buttz and we are filming them right now, say could you pull up your shirt just a bit? I guess I don't like my parts being filmed without my knowledge, they could end up on flickr or something.

If it doesn't show your face, no harm, no foul... plus you gather good karma from appreciative men (and lesbians) all over the internet.
