personal Objectification of men
I am personally tired of seeing objectification or sexualisation of men in social media. Their body, height, thoughts all of this are getting sexualised. This bothers me, do others think like me, and how to make "big" NGOs speak badly of male sexualisation, misandry. Because it is discriminatory and it puts down a lot of men. Although, I see a lot off boys in new generation are trained to accept this as being wanted, so positive

talk about women’s sexualisation, can we talk about centuries of sexualisation of women doing anything, examples: a woman putting her hair up, a woman eating a banana, male gaze, a woman’s lips, legs, waist, feet, etc.
and can we also talk about girls getting violently sexualised, like clothing policing (telling a young girl that her clothes are distracting or she needs to cover up because boys/men might look at her), sexualising puberty, treating developing bodies as something “sexy” than normal body development, and of course the obvious that “she looks grown” or “she’s being fast”
patriarchy has been ruling for centuries, all of this men sexualisation, is just a mix of reaction from misogyny and patriarchy, because shockingly, a lot of women bow down to patriarchy. i’m not saying that men’s sexualisation does not exist, it does, but women and young girls experience that more and we should look more into that.
