When men are objectified they aren't seen as people too. That's the definition of objectification. I agree that it doesn't carry the same power imbalance as it does with women but that third paragraph of yours just doesn't make sense.

It's also a lot more complicated when you consider how different races are exoticized and queer people of all kinds are treated as inherently more sexual and sometimes treated as sexual objects rather than people who sometimes act as sexual beings, and men are included in these forms of objectification as well as women.

i agree with this, but there are different factors that need to be analysed when discussing objectification. sexual identity/expression/orientation, gender identity, body type, etc. so just because we may be focusing on one factor in this thread doesn't mean the other factors aren't obviously important. of course some men are objectified more than other men, but that's usually not to do with their gender identity, but things like their sexuality. when discussing gender in particular, women hands down receive far more objectification, and the objectification they receive has far more societal repercussions, because society has this problem where it doesn't like to acknowledge that women are human beings.

This is true. I just like to at least give a nod to the fact that straight white people aren't the default.
