In being sick of the way women are endlessly objectfied and treated like pieces of meat?

I got really annoyed at a music video depicting scantliy clad women crawling on their hands and knees takig letters in their mouth to their male boss.
I was fuming!
And the majorette one just soft porn!
And we are supposed to laugh along because hey it is all 'ironic'?

NO , i checked your profile to see if u had a dd or a ds

LOL you searched my previous posts?!! What thread was that even on?!

No, I dont let anybody swear in front of my dd. And I dont dress like a whore, thank you very much. I dont bring trashy magazines into my home, if I have to read them I read them at work. We dont buy a paper and I certainly would never have the page sun norks staring at my dd while we're having breakfast.

So I would hope that dd learns from my influence.

In general though, I dont feel things have gotten any different from when I was younger. It's just different women getting their norks out. And you cant all tell me that you haven't slathered at the recent adverts of blokes baring all but their cocks in adverts.

YANBU. I do think it's getting worse than it was when I was younger (I'm 33 btw) and it scares me that younger women don't even seem to see any alternative for themselves.

To be honest i think women have never been so powerful as they are today. Yes of course women arn't as powerful as men but it was much worse years ago, women have more say now then ever before.

Really elf1981?

but swearing bothers you?

"Music
TV
R&B, though am having to limit my music listening to my MP3 player so my daughter doesn't hear the swear words!
"

but you'd be alright with your daughter dressing like a whore?

I really really hate it, makes me and

you know what, I was at mil todays browsing therough Lookagain catalogue, and ws SHOCKED by the clothes aimed at 9-15 yr olds, they basically were dress like complete sluts... fair enough 15/16 u cant really control them at that age, but 9 fgs??

I worry for my dd's!!

(also, i think the secondary school that banned girls from wearing skirts ws pioneering!)

am also sick of going into shops and magazines and shitty tabloid papers wher ekids can see having upskirt shots, ffs!

Will I get shot down as a anti-woman if I say it doesn't bother me?

there is an advertisement for some careers fair on the munich underground at the moment, which is a giant photograph of a female bottom wearing a thong, with the logo of the careers fair tatooed on one buttock.

I think its a careers fair anyway, I havent really looked too closely. I find this really bloody annoying.

Dont' get me started on plastic surgery, "I did it for myself" Oh please, give it a rest! Grrrr. Does anybody else think to themselves in a sarky tone of voice, "Of course you did, love"

I agree with the sentiments of this thread as well.

as a slight aside, i feel sorry that my sons are bombarded with this - not just that I don't like the objectification - but i try to ensure that my boys don't just think women are there as bits of meat.

thats one of the ways that we start to combat it - not just by getting women to cover up and be ashamed of their sexuality ( although I accept you can express your sexuality in ways other than by shoving your crotch in a random passer-bys face) but by installing respect in our boys.

and by giving our daughters enough self respect to get by on their hidden talents rather than their DDs.

Posh Spice?

I am not a prude, but i feel sad that a lot of young women feel that the road to fame and succeesss is to wear as little as possible and attach themselves to a rich and famous man.
How many women are well known at this moment in time for their intellect alone?

YANBU. It's vile.

yes. I saw a female tennis player being interviewed. Do you know what she was asked? What will your dress be like.

She giggled and said wait and see.

What she SHOULD have said was what the fuck has that got to do with my tennis skills. Do you think I have invented an outfit that will win Wimbledon.

That gets the message across. I want to slap her for simpering when she should have been OUTRAGED.

YANBU. I get so depressed by the creeping normalization of plastic surgery, botox etc.

I'm in total agreement with you, younger women's perception of feminism has been somewhat skewered and this makes some women think that getting your tits out for the lads is a vote for women's lib. It's not. And it's actually quite

I have this theory about tennis clothes (woah! topical!) that men have to wear clothes two sizes too big and women too sizes too small. Cue Pete Sampras shifting his Tshirt straight over his shoulders after every rally. Really annoying.
And Radio 1 annoyed me in their news report of Wimbledon this afternoon, saying that some wellknown female player was playing well against a new player with the most amazing legs "...and now over to XXX for the important stuff, like her name and the score.." and then REPEATED it at the next news!!! Unbelievable

I am sick of the fact that i can no longer surf the music channels when dd's are in the room! seems u need soft core porn to sell videos these days!!

(shakira and beyonce.. in fac tmost of the woemn are worse than the male videos, ie, u would expect it in like a 50 cent video, but big sigh at 'Q' now haivng 'fhm hour adn such like...)

And the hard core porn that dp enjoys makes me vomit!
