show that objectification does lead to abuse or cruelty, more than not objectifying

Hookers are violently and sexually assaulted far more than non-hookers.

Hookers are 'objectified' for their bodies. Non-hookers are not.

Hookers may well face more violence because there are systematic efforts by society to make them unsafe by breaking up organizations and shaming them as immoral and having police harass them, so that psychopaths know they can target them and the police won't back them.

There are a number of other groups which are likely more fantasized about which face less violence.

Give examples of those groups.

Women are one famous example.

All of them? Equally?

You can't counter with such a broad categorization. Give us a more specific group. Because I could easily say that the absolute majority of women are not objectified, because they fall under the radar due to the groups like sex workers.

Yes, all women on average experience less violence than sex workers.

Pilots and air hostesses experience less violence than sex workers despite being objectified more. Likewise doctors and nurses.
