as long as 51% of babies have a y chromosome, the world is going to be filled with horny, lust filled geeks. you can lament this, wish it wasn't so, but it is the way things are.
i do think if you have a real problem with being objectified, becoming an actress/model/tv spokeswoman/whatever is a weird career path. it's a big world. you can do something else.
i mean, culture is part of this of course, and the culture is probably a lot coarser in lots of ways now. you can try and change that, i guess. seems like a giant lift, but who knows? maybe it can be done.
until we stop making new men or change the culture, i'll say what i've said before will say again: lots of women find being around men pretty awful, apparently, hate men and hate having to live life with them. & i'm all for those women having their own israel. or lots of little israels. there are still some lesbian/feminist separatist communities around from the 70s. i think we should work on making more so that women who find life so awful can go off and do whatever they want without men around.
