Oh come on, be honest.

We all objectify all day and as long as you do it in your head and know how to act and react normal, it's fine. Whatever anyone does in their head is fine as long as it stays there.

Anytime I hear someone say that they would never objectify anyone I feel this huge "let he who is without sin cast the first stone" kind of thing. We've all looked at someone else and thought "habbah habbah.

Just, again, keep it to yourself.

Some people like the girl without the tattoos on the left, others like the girl with the tattoos in the right. So? Just let her decide for herself and find someone else if you don't like it

    ITT: People not keeping it to themselves.

    Agreed, thinking is not a crime. Replying to a mysogenist's rant with, "Well he's not wrong" is objectively mysogeny. Which is also not a crime, but we can do better.

    Is feeling sexual attraction the same as objectifying?

    Not really. Sexual attraction is merely something you feel. Objectification is when you let that dominate your view of someone. When you reduce them to nothing but a sexual object. You can feel sexual attraction without it being primary factor in how you see someone.

    when your whole public assessment of others is explaining your ability to be sexually attracted to them, then yes. really gotta notice your publicly talking about someone for a lot of them to happen.
