Ho boy, they should scan the brain of a narcissist looking at people around him 😆 "no humans detected on my radar, only objects to be used and thrown away"

chickenlesnugget · 2021-04-22T08:26:44+00:00

I wonder if porn users are more likely to think like this too... porn treats women as objects, even the less kinky stuff still has that sort of subconscious message, and each time they get off to it only reinforces that viewpoint.

Welcome to men

The Madonna Whore complex proven scientifically.

LevellingUpTime · 2021-04-22T06:17:01+00:00

Also why sexist men can become so angry when you break up with them. They're so angry because they realize they can't actually control you the way they can control an object they own, they're realizing they have no authority over your body. Some are so put off by this they'll commit murder because in their minds "if I can't have this object I consider mine then I'll destroy it so no-one else can have it"

Awkward-Plane-6617 · 2021-04-22T07:00:40+00:00

So science backs up what we already knew. I think this a good PSA for the girls and women on TikTok, though.

But, oh my god the damn fire alarm beep! Change ya dang batteries sis!

throw_away_oranges · 2021-04-22T10:24:14+00:00

Off topic, but someone should reach out to this woman and let her know that beeping sound is her fire alarm needing new batteries. Safety first.

TrixieFriganza · 2021-04-22T08:12:32+00:00

That's what I have thought those sexist men might aswell have a sexdoll or robot, then smaller risk they can hurt a human being.

feeturingmyself · 2021-04-22T06:49:40+00:00

Gurl change those batteries! Im surprised they saw "average" women as living beings but not surprised about the latter. They don't care about us

yfunk3 · 2021-04-22T08:10:17+00:00

It'S bIoLoGy! 😁🤔

The_Oracle_of_Delphi · 2021-04-22T10:04:14+00:00

My boss treats everyone like an object (that he has contempt for). I think it’s a power thing, and it has only been getting worse with time. I think maybe power also shuts down activation in that part of our brains that helps us to view others as “people” and to instead treat them like objects to control.

superderpina_ · 2021-04-22T07:28:54+00:00

Anyone have the source on this?

immortallogic · 2021-04-22T09:12:46+00:00

Potentially unpopular opinion, but this is why I believe as women we should not sexualize ourselves, especially in places like the office etc, where we need to come off as competent to benefit.

Is it fair that men view women who dress even remotely provocatively as objects? No. But I don't need to tell you that we don't live in a fair world. Putting aside all aspects of misogyny etc that this clearly is, as women we need to learn how to get ahead and also protect ourselves, and unfortunately dress plays a big part in that.

Women's clothes are also often extremely unutilitarian and uncomfortable (too tight, always riding up or down), not functional (no pockets), and downright damaging (high heels). Why would I put up with that?

Disclaimer: I am in NO way victim blaming, I am acutely aware of the fact that in some places in the world, a woman can be covered from head to toe and still be harassed or raped.

nothing998 · 2021-04-22T08:05:30+00:00

Men's sexualities are based around dehumanizing and subjugating people and turning them into objects.

AcadiaLeather5071 · 2021-04-22T09:43:13+00:00

Anyone have a link to the study?

I’ve heard of it before but I don’t remember there being a group of men that didn’t see women in bikinis as objects.

nonchalance77 · 2021-04-22T11:58:47+00:00

Someone needs to change the battery in their smoke detector ASAP.

the-worst- · 2021-04-22T13:08:58+00:00

I bet this same study on women would show we are more likely to regester non human items as their own beings.

I've only ever witnessed women accidentally bumping into chairs and saying sorry.

LilithWon · 2021-04-22T06:05:53+00:00

Breaking news! Water is wet!

LeighHolloway44 · 2021-04-22T12:19:02+00:00

Girl needs to change the batteries in the smoke detector.

ChanelOberlin2015 · 2021-04-22T10:28:38+00:00

B-b-but I thought becoming a porn actress was a great career choice that would totally empower me or something!!11!??

CloacaDiddler · 2021-04-22T12:31:19+00:00

I mean I already knew this but AINT THAT THE SHIT

AimiHanibal · 2021-04-22T12:45:55+00:00

We been knew, queens, we been knew.

MadameDestruction · 2021-04-22T14:57:33+00:00

Explains how easily men unashamedly use sex dolls or treat other inanimate objects like those objects are their romantic partner (i.e. that man that "married" a plush My Little Pony toy and truly believed she was his wife and that this stuffed animal reciprocated the feelings he had for her).

ChickaDeeD33 · 2021-04-22T10:08:30+00:00

That is genuinely terrifying. It's no wonder they're capable of such horrendous acts against us. I wonder if whatever experiment concluded this was around back in the day (or even now for some people, let's be honest.) if white men would see black people as objects as well. I would happily bet every penny in my bank account the result would be the same. How are they such heartless monsters?!

prettyplum32 · 2021-04-22T13:02:04+00:00

Wow, look at my face and how surprised I am. So, so very surprised....

orangeboobert · 2021-04-22T12:20:24+00:00

Pornsickness. I want to stay away from men.

tinykittenteeths · 2021-04-22T11:29:52+00:00

omg change your fucking smoke alarm batteries 😫

rwilkz · 2021-04-22T12:25:46+00:00

Totally unrelated but why do all tik toks have that weird beep/screech noise in the background? Is it me or is this a thing?

karabnp · 2021-04-22T14:07:08+00:00

Not surprising/shocking, yet, OH MY GOD, too.😟

cece188 · 2021-04-23T03:38:13+00:00

This is why I can’t see why women even try anymore. All men think like this. I don’t even say most, because it really is all. Even the good ones.

SaturnGirl1989 · 2021-04-22T12:39:26+00:00

Off topic, but I hate when people make videos while their smoke alarm is chirping. How can you even live like that??

Yellowsunflowerlover · 2021-04-22T13:12:12+00:00

Makes 100% sense.

Audderpop270 · 2021-04-22T16:25:09+00:00

Basically, men ain't shit

3lbsofjewelry · 2021-04-22T20:42:51+00:00

Well this is horrifying. Thanks, I hate it.

T5ubaki · 2021-04-22T23:06:50+00:00

Yup, but we need her to replace the battery on her smoke alarm though lol.

cupittycakes · 2021-04-22T14:46:05+00:00

I wish she would have said what part of the brain, I can't remember it

imnotfitforexistence · 2021-04-22T22:51:58+00:00

I'm really interested in the study she mentioned. Does anyone know how to find it?

freelancepsychic · 2021-04-23T05:52:36+00:00

I actually heard about this in a Stanford lecture. It happens with specifically high testosterone men

jasmine-blossom · 2021-04-22T14:33:26+00:00

While I have no doubt that there is some truth to the theory that men who are sexist genuinely have something going wrong in their brains when they are looking at or thinking about women, this study has a sample size of 21 people, which makes it a horrible study and is in no way credible when trying to apply it to the entire population of human men.

We need better studies with much much larger sample sizes in order to make any genuine conclusions about the brain and sexist male behavior.

Personally, I avoid wearing any clothes that emphasize my figure when I’m going to be in public, unless it’s for an event where I can have some assurance of safety and I need to look more dressed up. I’ve chosen to do this because I’m aware that men view certain types of clothing as an invitation, even though of course wearing oversized baggy clothing does not protect me fully from sexual harassment and assault. I don’t post provocative photos online, and I reserve anything “sexy” for when I’m with my significant other. This is what I’ve chosen to do with the information that men are often sexist and creepy and use clothing to excuse their sexist creepy behavior. I encourage other women to make an informed decision about how they are going to be seen in the world because of men’s failure to behave humanely. I do wish I could wear what I like, but men have made that a less safe and less comfortable option.
