Wanted to ask you about objectification. If this is hard wired to be visually stimulated as males, do you suggest we try to oppress it, or do you perhaps disagree that we are not creatures of our evolution but rather that this is a learned or environmental thing?
I see 2 distinct definitions here, one being that there are men who see women as objects, a misogynistic view. The other that objectification is the evolutionary trigger for mating, or mate selection.
