How do women deal with female objectivity on tv/ in movies/ magazines and ads?

[Have Hope]

It's terrible isn't it? I deal with it by being more feminist and by supporting feminist principles. I do not support men going to strip clubs or watching porn, because both activities objectify and demean women. I support equal pay for women, though in the US, it's still an issue. Men will be men and will continue to enjoy things that objectify women, and there's not much we can do about that. Men are very visual and enjoy women's beauty and naked bodies. It's just a fact of life. But we as women do not need to objectify ourselves. We can dress in sexy clothing without inviting objectification, and we can treat ourselves in ways that show self respect and self worth. In fact, how I view and treat myself helps me to rise above all of it. Not sure if this helps you... maybe others will have better insights.

I dont know about .......all..... women for how people deal with things is individual.

I deal with it by first understanding that I make my own choices. I dont ....have to watch such things if I dont want to.

and I dont therefore I do not watch such tv shows, movies, nor do I read such magazines nor ads.

my wife and I have streaming accounts with ads free.
we dont do tabloids nor magazines and such in our home.

watching tv, watching or purchasing movies, streaming and such is a personal choice, so to me its simple...

my family doesnt like turnips so we dont buy turnips and we dont farm (grow in our garden) turnips nor do we engage in turnips.

why would we engage in watching tv shows, movies or buy magazines that go against our beliefs and needlessly / purposely trigger ourselves right. they are just the turnips of life and have no place in my and my family's life.

its not like decades ago where people only had three channels to watch and only 4 types of magazines - beauty, celeb / tabloid or national geographic or religious material.

today, there are so many different ways a person can control what they watch, purchase and read.
