No human born today, male or female, is "made" to work with schedules, sit for eight hours in front of a computer, write hundreds of pages, or do plenty of other tasks because a) we're not "made", and b) we evolved into our current state far before we started doing any of these.

I thought the original artwork was quite tastefully done and it looked like they had a real woman to pose for the artwork, but other people clearly disagreed and graffitied over it.

How are we defining tasteful here? To me, the image looks pretty erotic and I imagine that's what the artist had in mind. A woman posing for it doesn't mean that it isn't objectifying on some level. Women model in Playboy magazines too, and we all know the intention behind those. Mind you, I get that some art is erotic or pornographic. I think the issue here is how public this art is. Audience interaction, no?

I'm not sure if the artist was a man or a woman, but the original artwork was entitled gender trouble after the famous feminist non-fiction novel- the woman is even reading it in the art. I'm fairly certain eroticism was not the intention.Fahran wrote:Eighth Eurasia wrote:What does everyone here think of this piece of Graffiti Art that was once in my hometown?

What I meant was an average(ish) young woman. She looks very androgynous, sad and serious, not hyper-feminine, playful and flirty. She has A-cups too, so she's not some page 3 girl or playboy playmate.A woman posing for it doesn't mean that it isn't objectifying on some level.

Understandable. It is long gone now, but I just wanted to talk to some feminists about it.Mind you, I get that some art is erotic or pornographic. I think the issue here is how public this art is. Audience interaction, no?

Here's the problem - in order to argue that I'm infantilizing females, you have literally had to refer to the Republic of Sudan. You had to bring to the table a 'republic' so far out on the extreme of horrible human rights that they only outlawed crucifixion within the lifetime of my kids.
You're arguing that women have greater autonomy and that my contradiction of it is "infantilizing women and trying to remove their agency" by using as an example a state where women are so powerless that they can literally be forced into legal child marriages.
You're so desperate to prove an unsupportable point that you've blinded yourself to what your evidence actually says.
Nope. You just made that up.
As Bettina Shell-Duncan stated, "If we look at data across Africa, the support for the practice is stronger among women than among men." She conducted personal research in Kenya, Gambia, and Senegal, and consulted other studies across Africa (which is where most FGM takes place) and came to the conclusion that it's women who promote and push this practice moreso than men.

Educate yourself.

When you make a claim like you did - again, without a single shred of evidence supporting it - make up lies trying to support it, and then dismiss the evidence presented to by multiple learned scholars on the subject, you are acting desperate to prove an unsupportable point to the point you've blinded yourself to what the evidence actually says.

I'd say its crossing a line too far, primarily if someone is harassing someone else or not keeping their hands to themselves if it isn't wanted. Otherwise, just looking or remarking in private is usually okay.
Its not a good place to be in my view, to worry all that much about what other people might be doing or thinking.
