In principal I can't see anything inherently wrong with consenting adults paying for or getting paid for sex.
In reality it involves human trafficking and abuse and it's abhorrent. The vast majority of women in prostitution are problematic drug users. It objectifies people, be they male or female, and I don't consider objectification to be a good thing.

Alt: soup.

except the bit about soup. That bit's wrong

Soup is where it's it.
Carrot and lentil with cumin and coconut milk tonight, oh yes.

soup is a thick drink
not real food

I agree that it needs a solid accompaniment like decent bread.

How are the piggies this weekend?

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Sun 7 Aug 2011, 21:53, Reply)

right now they are sleepy pigs
I weighed them the other day. Full grown ones are meant to be between 700 and 1200 grammes. These guys are 4 months off that. Boson is just under, while Higgs is 1300g. He's a big pig.

So Higgs is almost ready for eating then!

I wish I understood this objectification thing
I don't think I get it. Treating people as objects I guess, which is probably why I dont get it because I think we are objects, among other things. Ho hum. Sorry I won't be here to reply to any reply to this post, but I'll read any answers later on with interest.
( CQ Knows the truth, all of it., Sun 7 Aug 2011, 21:21, Reply)

When people start failing to recognise other peoples'
'personhood', reacting to people as their bodies rather than on an empathetic level, that's when shit gets bad. That's when people excuse treating others like shit. Surely you consider yourself to be more than your external appearance?
( Citizen Cavy Admires your passion for conformity, Sun 7 Aug 2011, 21:26, Reply)

Would I like to be seen only as my body? no
Do I object to people noticing that I have one and reationg to it as the physical object it is? No.
I don't see that the one necessarily implies the other althou I can see how it can do. Cheers for the clarification.

i, personally feel weird when people comment on my physical form. I see it more like a machine that carries my brain around. But at least now people can comment on my tat - I'm cool with that.

*shrugs*
"Object" denotes passivity. Objectification suggests that individuality is being ignored. It's dehumanising. It suggests inferiority.

But what if the prostitute has REALLY BIG TITS?

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Sun 7 Aug 2011, 21:31, Reply)

Then she hopefully owns a really big bra.

Thank you.
This has helped me understand the meanings attached to the term. This in turn helps me understand a point of view I have often not.
( CQ Knows the truth, all of it., Sun 7 Aug 2011, 23:26, Reply)

The way I see objectification
Is when you talk about what you would do to a person, as if they had absolutely no say in the matter. I get this a lot when people talk about my boobs, as if there wasn't a person attached. I know I talk about them a lot, and I don't mean anyone joining in those conversations. I mean those people (and it's not always blokes) who go ' are they real? They're massive' just out of the blue.
