	Sexual objectification - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Sexual objectification is the act of treating and judging a person with values generally appreciated in animals or objects (eg.
		In some circumstances, sexual objectification is also the fetishistic act of regarding a person as an object for erotic purposes.
		Objectification for fetishistic purposes may for example provide erotic humiliation for the person so regarded, whether male or female.

	Generosity
		Taking this risk through eroticism is generous because it involves opening the lived body to the other and because it is, by virtue of this, creative in transforming the other's embodied situation and hence existence through a self-metamorphosis which, if we set aside Beauvoir's motif of unity, does not reduce the other to the self.
		The erotic experience is one that most poignantly discloses to human beings the ambiguity of their condition; in that they are aware of themselves as flesh and as spirit, as other and as subject.
		Beauvoir's second important qualification about the social objectification of women is the suggestion that ''the very difficulty of [the woman's] position protects her from the traps into which the male readily falls; he is an easy dupe of the deceptive privileges accorded him by his aggressive role'' (423).

	Comes Naturally #05 (March 5, 1993): On Sexual Objectification
		But the male-centered attitude is still pervasive, and needless to say upsetting to any woman with a clear sense of her own sexuality and a reluctance to give herself up in the name of being accommodating.
		The result is that men like Layne, in the process of defending their right to their desire, and to including women's bodies as enjoyable aspects of that desire, dismiss the issue of sexual objectification as a silly, or boring, pre-occupation of a bunch of up-tight asexual political authoritarians.
		This kind of objectification -- being the object of desire -- is indeed something that most men would like to have a whole lot more of in their lives.

		Since the "erotic", similarly, seems to have existed throughout western history, it too may seem to be a transhistorical concept.
		It was specifically in the nineteenth century, however, that the pornographic was categorised as separate and distinct from the erotic, and it is in this apparently aesthetic distinction that commodified obscenity found its reprieve.
		5 As mentioned previously, the objectification of women is frequently deemed to be socially "acceptable" in canonical sexualised artworks, and as a result these works have become a kind of reference material for glossy men's magazines that wish to sublimate their objectifying imagery.

	Bryn Mawr Classical Review 95.10.02
		Conventionally, the male lover's voice in poetry praises the one he loves by declaring that she, or his love for her, is exempt from time's changes.
		All these conventional modes of erotic discourse, Ancona declares, in fact oppress the beloved by refusing to recognize that she shares in the temporal plight of her lover.
		By directing attention to Barine and the way in which the poem frames her within Roman social, erotic, and literary expectations, Ancona configures Odes II.8 as a public poem, in which "what is at issue is the positioning of female sexuality" (84).

		Indulge your erotic imagination, in other words, and there's going to be some objectifying going on.
		I think saying "objectifying is just a natural part of erotic fantasies" is a pretty generalized comment which therefore could also be used to defend child molesters, etc. I just think some distinctions need to be drawn.
		I'm saying that the tendency of the erotic imagination to objectify is omnipresent and inarguable.

		And that's a very important difference; traditional ideals lead to passivity and objectification because it's about things women are born with, while ideals anchored in muscularity (and other self-made or chosen characteristics) presuppose and express personal power, dedication and will, and hence point to and reflect the person.
		In retrospect, I believe I had serious gripes with the objectification of women -- just measuring them with a different yardstick, and the trivializing of eating disorders as something that is just aesthetically displeasing, and the rest of my tone was more of a call for different kinds of discussion.
		Subject: Objectification and gender roles There seems to be a statistically significant difference in the perception of objectification between women and men.

		Below, objectification of women has been separated into three subcategories including: the buying process, the marketing of women, and actions women are expected to provide.
		This particular selection process demonstrates the objectification of women in that women are paraded across a stage to be selected, and then are asked to entice the man in order to be chosen to go home with him.
		This action depicts objectification and dehumanization as the woman is not seen as a person who has likes, dislikes, preferences or feelings, but as a sexual slave or object to be used for pleasure.

		As such, erotic images of men are designed to appeal to liberated women as well as the new male consumer.

		A close examination of the development of the homosocial relationships which are the foundation of these erotic triangles reveals significant prejudices, and in turn forces us to examine the positioning and representation of women in these novels.
		If we combine the arguments of Girard and Sedgwick, we clearly must examine not only the erotic triangles themselves, but also the pre-existing homosocial relationships which form their basis, and the ways in which they force the object of desire, the woman, into a subordinate position.
		These novels explode the idea that erotic triangles elevate the mutually desired object to empowerment, rather they seem to confirm that women remain potentially disposable tools for the negotiation of patriarchal power.

	The Erotic and/in the Divine - Lest Blood Be Shed
		Because of this take-over by the systemic structures of objectification feminist theologians have begun to redefine the erotic outside of this context to reclaim their place in experiencing eros.
		Defining erotic as something to be shunned and evil is the same type of education as when a mother slaps her young child on the wrist if he reaches toward an open flame.
		This model is what feminist theology challenges and one way they do that is by re-defining "the erotic" taking it out of the control of "the father" and reclaiming it as an expression of love and an encounter with the divine.

	Sex & Games
		Erotic love, sex, lust, and our core identities (constructed as much on who we want to be as on who we want to attract as a mate) are passionately intertwined with our sexuality.
		We are indebted to the wonderment of eroticism from birth and it's a damn shame we are raised to disavow sexuality, to belittle it, and push it into dark bedrooms (or worse, bedroom closets).
		We are fast approaching a time of improved eroticism in virtual worlds, and this erotic content will bring mainstream non-gamers to the medium to play out self-actualizing fantasies that extend beyond FPS heroics and god-game power-trips into the realm of everyday living.

		Feminist readers might be tempted to read the novel as a representation of the erotic objectification of female sexuality in a society that produces/endorses incest and the sexual abuse of women.
		The incest victim’s masochistic desire, then, is read as if it corresponds to her position as being brainwashed, and helpless to resist her degradation and her utter confusion of pain with pleasure.
		Bone’s sexual desire, then, is not just an outcome of her erotic objectification; she actively constructs it within the regulatory order in which she is situated.

		I would be willing to bet that the literature talks of men in the generic sense of human beings and not just males.
		· Finally, there is objectification as related to treating someone as a mere instrument. This Nussbaum considers to be the morally central kind of reprehensible objectification.
		A central point for Nussbaum is that certain kinds of objectification have a place in the sexual life. There can be a reduction to the sexual aspects which enriches the persons by drawing a richer picture. There can be a surrender of autonomy and of subjectivity, for instance.
