- Objectification in the media happens pretty much exclusively to women.
- It is used as a means of dehumanization and control.
- It is a way that rape culture justifies sexual assault.
- The American Psychological Association did a massive study on it. To summarize: objectification of women in the media leads to elevated instances of gender violence like sexual assault and rape as well as elevated reports of eating disordered behavior, depression, self-harm, and suicide.
- Please go fuck yourself.
