Sexual objectification

Redirected from Erotic objectification

Sexual objectification is the fetishistic act of regarding a person as an object for erotic purposes. This may provide erotic humiliation for the person so regarded.

As with most sexual activities, it is generally viewed as abusive if it is not part of a consensual arrangement, such as in BDSM play.

Feminists have long complained that traditional attitudes to women in many societies constitute non-consensual sexual objectification of women.
