I
find it hilarious that this debate is split, unless I've missed an email or two,
entirely along gender lines. I know I always look to men to tell if I'm
right when I feel objectified. Thanks, guys, for letting all of us
know we're wrong.
I
think the most accurate assessment was lost in the bigger debate - "trite." The
image itself is boring and has been done a thousand times before. But I
guess your subject got you the attention you wanted. Kudos on
that!

Women are most "objectified" and least respected in societies where they are most covered up Would you find a woman in a burqa objectionable?
