This is something I've been pondering this morning.
When I was at Temple University we had a feminist organization on campus, and they had a workshop about women being treated like sex objects. I didn't understand what it was for. Years later I think maybe I do understand.
I can't count the numbe of times I've been friends with guys online and out of the blue they IM me and get sexual. Not only that, but guys I dont know. It's like "uhm I dont know you." or "uhm, I thought we were friends..."
I dont get it. Why do guys get sexual with you if they don't want to have a relationship with you? Why dont they just go use their hand? o_o
I get that some women dont want a commitment but it just seems to me that a lot of guys want sex for their own (selfish) pleasure and that it's become so widespread in our society that "men need sex" that this has become a completely acceptable statement for men to make. Bullshit I say.
Men don't need sex. No one needs sex.
Now, don't take me to be a heartless *****. Sometimes when this occurs to me I think I see a person that wants to feel close to someone. As in, they want to bridge an emotional divide, alleviate lonelinss. Whatever. I sympathize with this motive, however I dont think it's a good enough excuse to have non-commital sex.
If you want to feel emotionally close to me we could go bake cookies. We could do something else. Why does it have to be sex? o_o
I just refuse to be treated like a sex-object and am appalled that this has turned into a main-stream objectification of women that is completely acceptable and which most people do not recognize.
Your thoughts on this subject are welcome, whether you agree or disagree with me.
