Please do not publicly describe a woman in such a way. It's indecent.


No.....it was great!

She chose to dress that way and got the inevitable admiration.


you'll find that its only the ugly swamp donkeys that bang on about "objectifying women" ...

they don't like the good looking lasses getting attention so try to Feminise the Male population..  Roll Eyes

If you do it in public about your wife, it's unacceptable


Why?

If I kiss her in public or pinch her arse is it also unacceptable?

It's only an offensive 'cat-call' or 'wolf-whistle' if the male(s) have no sincere 'follow-thru' or intention to live up to the woman's expectations for the attention.
Most are deemed offensive because its an act of trying to attain attention/sex ...for 'free'. All take and no give.

It think women can wear anything they want - as long as they can take 'personal responsibility' for other people's reactions both positive and negative.

Why is it that its socially accepted and popularised that Mr Grey can get away with all the 'Bondage' etc in 50 Shades, because he is RICH.
But a guy who wanted to do the same, because he is poor and in a Trailer Park - is considered a 'despicable deviant'?

If a Police Officer says you incite 'rape' because you dress like a 'slut' and you go out and make mass marches called 'Slut Walks' in protest.
You are still dressing like a Slut.
Should I protest if I dressed in an Evil Clown Suit and haunted the streets of Campbelltown without consequence?

Sexy makes the effort to be discreet.
Slutty makes no effort at all, like the lazy guys they attract who can't be bothered with any 'follow-thru' for their Cat Calls and Wolf Whistles.

Tongue

PS: It's easy for a 'slut' dressed woman to 'exploit' a Police Officer who represents an Industry in that part of the world that aims for 'the Responsibility of Power', rather than getting laid - like the Art Industry (Nude painting anyone?  Roll Eyes ).

That is acceptable. But don't talk about her to other people in that manner. Showing physical affection is ok but talking about her like she's a trophy is not cool.

Doesn't matter. Don't do it.


Why?  She chose to put those puppies in our faces.  She was not raped or assaulted.  She got the inevitable comments and loved it.

Women's beauty is one facet of their being, their brain, personality etc, others. Making a comment about one facet does not objectify women, just as saying she is smart does or saying she has a personality of a goat make them that that is all they are.

She is a trophy.  Wink

So it's OK for them to do it? Then complain when it happens back?

The error in the original article is that it's assumed a complement means all other aspects of the person is disregarded.

When I complemented the bloke who made my latte this morning,  I'm not diminishing all other facets of his personality.

For the record I don't wolf whistle at women because I'm a polite human being.

“In Anglo-Saxon countries the prostitutes look as if they purveyed, along with sin, the attendant pains of hell.”
— Theodor W. Adorno

Anglo-Saxon women's attitude to sex is related to this. Sex is not a dance, it's a 'harassment'.

Is this woman dressed provocatively, a "swamp donkey" or overly concerned that other qualities of her's aren't being commented upon?

THIS is what it's like:

Something not right about that.  How come no-one saw the person walking backwards with the camera.

Anyway, was she harmed in any way whatsoever?
