LMFAO! It turns out that men are objectified too.

According to the feminist film theorist Laura Mulvey, “the male figure cannot bear the burden of sexual objectification.” Tell that to the pecs and speedo-clad cocks wiggling in LMFAO’s new video for their hit, Sexy And I Know It.

Keep this in mind the next time a certain type of feminist tries to skew the gender dialogue to imply that women are solely, or vastly more objectified, than men.

Though I’ve kept this post deliberately brief, I later explained my rationale for this post during the pow-wow in the comments below.

Summer’s Eve objectifies the vag in a pretty idiotic douche commercial

Men have fought for it, died for it… some may say, it’s the most powerful thing on Earth. Of course, I’m talking about vagina. Or at least, Summer’s Eve is.

This ridiculously objectifying commercial urges women to douche and show their vag some love, while pretending to be empowering. Hey, if men are going to fight for it, at least make it fresh for us.
