i once read an essay that drew heavily from Myth and it came to the conclusion that the objectification of women in the media (hypersexualized video game characters, lack of strong female protagonists in Hollywood, etc) is in fact harmful; however, it also concluded that men are objectified by the same mechanic. traditional femininity is based on domestication and subservience to men while traditional masculinity is based on accumulation of power and subservience to overlords (usually a father or surrogate figure).

do you think these two types of objectification are dehumanizing and oppressing to the same extent?
