[citation][nom]ojas[/nom]THAT'S THE WHOLE F***ING PROBLEM."Cars are typically marketed to men.""Games are typically marketed to men.""Computers are typically marketed to men."So let's just ignore the other half of the human population, even if they are, to a large extent, equal buyers? What if some men enjoy the male form more?The intent was humorous? Seriously now? Missed the humor in models trying to make me find a piece of electronics attractive? Oh wait, is the joke on all of us?Because the very fact that you're accepting the marketing strategy that says "hey look, bewbs! Now stop thinking and buy buy buy!" or something similar, is indeed funny.So isn't this a very sexist practice in general?Man i do NOT mind looking at models, and i'm not a conservative nut bag (don't mean this politically, i'm not American) or anything. But FFS after 2 millions years of evolution or more i think we could promote less objectification of women and more gender equality, rather than the other way around?Look at the pictures again, ask yourself "are they being reduced to objects here?" and then look at them again. What do you think?Repeat for auto expos, CES, computex, etc. (hint: if they're not adding any value to the situation except being eye candy, it's most likely intended objectification).[/citation]
Men are objectified, women are objectified. That's the way the world works. I definitely see your point, and it's not a bad one. People however will always objectify. Embrace your genetics and embrace society. This is my last post. Good discussion.
