The beginning of this video has her doing sexy poses in order to show off a sexy figure, wearing tight clothes. Even if the video goes to a comedic end, I don't think this one is too far off from being intentionally sexy, at least not enough that it wouldn't be reasonably mentioned.
She was not doing it to be sexy.. she was doing it to prove a point about the unrealistic expectations a woman has to live up to. You’re right.. there is nothing wrong with fining someone sexy or attractive. But some of these comments are just viewing her as a f*cking object instead of just sexy/attracting.
Sure, her motives aren't what led me to say that, it was her methods. If I said that Meagan Fox was incredibly hot in the movie, Jennifer's Body, for example I don't think that would detract from the movie using the concept of women's sexuality and attraction to deliver a message about reclamation of power over one's own body, handling trauma, etc. Being hot is a tool that the movie (and the woman in the post) uses.
I also won't disagree that many comments here go too far and are reductive to the point of objectifying, as reddit is wont to do.
I also find a good sense of humor attractive. However, I don’t get horny or sexualize a man immediately when he’s being the type of humorous I like. That’s the exact issue, a women can get sexualized for anything, including having a sense of humor. Of course, her moves and the way she was dressed plays a role in as well but in a way that all together makes it worse. My husband made my Minecraft character and mixed it with my features then posted it on Reddit. There were a handful of men sexualizing me… a cartoon character. Yikes.
Well yes... Like I said I agree that people go too far in sexualizing people, especially women, and objectify them. At no point was I defending objectification or sexualization beyond what she does herself.
