There you go, 70% is nurture - so if you keep on banging onto women that they are sex objects, are you surprised that they end up objectifying themselves? I am really shocked that you put NO blame on the culture! You just put the entire responsibility for this mentality on the indivituals. People behave very differently from culture to culture, therefore.... the culture is to be blamed!

Who is responsible for "the culture" - this is a complex question! You can´t say one thing or another. Cultures change over time in a fluid way, you do not notice these changes in individuals, for each individual, what she/he believs seems to be "natural". 50 years ago a woman had no right in England to have a credit card on her own and if 100 years ago a woman was burnt alive for "provoking a man" (=witchcraft), many women also thought it was right! This woman hating did not magically disappear these days, it just changed its form to more subtle ways that can be manufactured and sold by capitalism. Do you think that the massive objectification, increasingly more pornographic media on a daily basis do not affect girls since very early?

Look, the fact is that at this point the culture has a certain dominant ideology and all men and women are influenced by it. So even women who work in some places, especially when they are paid to write very specific articles, of course they will write these things - it will not occur to them as somehting outrageous. It takes courage to oppose the dominant ideology that you´ve been raised with and that being all you´ve ever seen. Similarly to people who grew up in an islamic country leaving Islam!

There is this common bullshit line sold by capitalists saying that capitalism only offers ´goods´, and you are ´free to choose´ not to buy them. Sounds pretty convincing, doesn´t it?

The bottom line is that we live in a male dominant culture, men still own the majority of everything (like 80-90%!). And, male dominant ideological foundation is the foundation of our countries. That means that some beliefs are still rooted in people that are beneficial to men and harmful to women. This ideological foundation is being continuously perpetuated by our media, by pornography, by the kind of culture we live in, by the way things are set up. In a way, men are also ´victims´ of this system, as many normal men end up having misogynistic attitudes after being raised in this system. However, once they become callous enough, they learn to like it, because it´s to their easy benefit.

Ok, let´s blame men and the culture. But who raised those men? Who are 50% of that culture? Who keeps also traditions alive? All innocent women who are forced to do so? 

It´s normal. Just like women in islamic countries raising their sons to be jihadists.

Trudy, so you missed the point. Of course women are also brainwashed and they must accept the dominant ideology. It´s normal. Just like women in islamic countries raising their sons to be jihadists. Do these women also not know what they are doing???!!!

Yes, we have to educate our women to have a better world!

catwoman, are  you serious when you write:

Just like women in some islamic countries raising their sons to be jihadists.

I don´t think I missed the point, maybe I missed YOUR point, that´s possible, I´m a feminist but not as tough as you. I know, I see that things are wrong but to say it´s all to blame to men? No.

Trudy, where did it say that I´m blaming all men? Can you show me? These ideas are not coming out of feminism, it is normal human behavior.

 In my view your last paragraph is pointing towards men.
