Women objectifying themselves

Women care about what other women think of them, not men.

If you watch them, you will notice that women put on makeup and wear dresses and perfume and all that junk to impress other women.

Some of them will even tell you they feel they can be themselves around men, but have to dress up to be around other women because women are more judgemental than men.

They aren't doing it to attract men. They're doing it to get the approval of other women.

I never understood why men get the blame for women exposing their body to us.

So let's unpick this. His definition of objectifying is:

"So, in fact, there is nothing wrong with a man objectifying a woman—that is, being attracted to a woman—as long as he doesn’t do it full-time."

Pretty much no one has said that there is something wrong with being attracted to a woman, he's arguing against a point that doesn't exist.

The definition of objectifying from the Cambridge English Dictionary is:

"to treat a person like a tool or toy, as if they had no feelings, opinions, or rights of their own"

So if a man makes an effort to look good he deserves to just be seen as a sex object, does he? No. Just because someone makes an effort to look good doesn't mean they deserve to be treated like a tool or toy. Did Brad Pitt ask for Lena Dunam to kiss him because he was dressed up to look good. No. Did she do it because doesn't really see him as a person with feelings but an attractive object, I'd argue, yes.

So I'm therefore cautious of this sort of rhetoric.
