Why are women objectified more than men ? Even by other women ?

On EP, a guy was "complaining” that women’s bodies are more fetishized than men’s, and he thought it was unfair. It kind of is, but not necessarily in the way he meant.

Women’s bodies are valued as things, first and foremost. Things to display, things to barter. Even other women buy into it. That’s probably why so many people think they have the right, even the imperative to legislate women’s reproductive choices.

Rant over.

Ive always liked Elaine's explanation on Seinfeld. Women's bodies are a work of art. Men's bodies are like a Jeep, they're just for getting around in.
@hunkalove That's nice but it's not an excuse for objectification.
It's the opposite of respect.
