Sexploitation

WOMEN DESERVE RESPECT! I just had to shout that out of my system because people have gone numb to horrible and unacceptable portrayal of women turning them into objects, and no that is not the answer when the companies endorsing their product carelessly shrug their shoulders and answer by saying “…But , sex sells!”
What is wrong with people? Is there any limit to women being exposed and shamelessly flaunted be it related to the requirement of a product or not? Is packaging an ad and making it look and appear like soft porn the only strategy left to captivate audience? Even for those who don’t find the strategy appealing are hammered to think that women are but sex objects and serve only one purpose to have them admired or loved. Is this the message we are leaving for the young girls to follow, that in order to feel loved you must be barely clad and that should be enough to get all the desired attention, love and respect you seek for?
Has anybody noticed the rise of the formulaic success of women turning into item girls? More actresses are willing to bare more, appear like a complete tart and pull attention seeking vulgar stunts to gain popularity? Why is there so much abhorrent exposure of women coming in from everywhere?
A moisturizer ad would have a woman wearing next to nothing, coating herself with the lotion and showing triumph when she successfully seduces the man. Is all that touching and kissing really necessary for that ad? Is that the ultimate role of a woman?
There are more and more products being endorsed that shamelessly shout out “Go sleeveless on him” I mean since when does a product ultimately lead to seduction? Whatever happened to feel good slogans?
At least monitor the television when have your children being exposed to such horrible nuisance! This is not suitable for children or adults.

  2. Thats the whole point either everybody does as a default or they dont - but in the world we live in whats been established is that one has to earn respect - unless your a woman. And thats what i disagree with.

    Anybody who feels that women should be respected as a default is actually treating women as if they have a handicap. Women should earn respect just as men have to earn respect - because they are capable of doing so. For Women to get a free ticket to respect means they were not able to earn it like everybody else.

    I believe that in this day in age where the work place is shared between the sexes on equal footing and even the home turf - its time that there was equal footing in all matters.
