Presumably you never wear heels - because they exist to make your feet look smaller (associated with higher oestrogen production), lengthen your legs which draws the eye to your backside - which the heels now make more prominent by forcing your back to arch slightly.Originally posted by mudskipper View PostThe flip flops don't objectify women.
And presumably you never wear lipstick - because that is designed to enhance your lips, which are naturally fuller and redder in women in order to appear more like your genitals.
And presumably you never wear makeup - because that exists to make yourself appear more physically attractive.
Presumably you keep your hair short for practical purposes, or at least don't take an appearance of femininity into account when choosing a haircut. Because that would imply that you value appearing to be feminine for some reason.
Presumably, regardless of your own personal choices, you believe that no women should do any of these things? because otherwise how on earth can a man appreciating the female form be objectifying women (and I understand that any time you - male or female - find someone attractive for no other reason than their appearance that you are objectifying them in that moment), while women actively labouring to make themselves appear more physically attractive not be so?

When I worked at ESA, everyone was given a polo shirt which had the name of the project on the back and various insignia although I haven't seen any yet for the Rosetta team (although I've seen a number of FB postings from the team at work.) I have to admit though that I've appeared twice on TV for ESA and wasn't wearing an official shirt either but as I was the only one reasonably smartly dressed I got picked, Tomorrows World and The Sky At Night and they were both filler pieces with no talking, just filming me doing stuffOriginally posted by vetran View PostEven so it wasn't appropriate for a TV interview about the project. someone should of said "here is your Team Philae T-Shirt put it on for any interviews".
As I said he probably needs guidance over such things.

What if I do those things to make myself feel half decent, rather than for men specifically?Originally posted by SpontaneousOrder View PostPresumably .....

Or are you going to argue that I'm subconsciously doing it for men? Even if I'm gay?Practically perfect in every way....there's a time and (more importantly) a place for malarkey.

why do you need to make yourself conform to the male expectation of beauty to make yourself feel good?Originally posted by MaryPoppins View PostWhat if I do those things to make myself feel half decent, rather than for men specifically?

If you were gay and admired a straight girl would you consider yourself a sexual predator and disgusting?Comment

Not sure those things used in the example are just the male expectation of what looks good.Originally posted by vetran View Postwhy do you need to make yourself conform to the male expectation of beauty to make yourself feel good?

And, no. I don't think I said I consider anyone disgusting in that context.Practically perfect in every way....there's a time and (more importantly) a place for malarkey.

who do you think defined 'looking good'? It wasn't to please women, it was to attract mates.Originally posted by MaryPoppins View PostNot sure those things used in the example are just the male expectation of what looks good.

As SO pointed out all of the looking good moves are to fulfill male desires.Comment
