Small sample size.

Its not about being offended of behalf of others its about being grown ups in 2016. It's objectifying regardless of who it objectifies, and we should really just expect better of ourselves.

The best take on this discussion has always been when Steven Colbert had a group of redskins fans come in and explain why the name was no problem -- to a group of native Americans. I don't recall the native Americans being offended as much as gobsmacked at the audacity of the reasoning.
