It doesn't have to be offensive to me for it to be uncomfortable to others

I have been made aware that talking about other people as if they are only good for one thing is not a particularly good thing though.

I am pretty certain that would not be your general opinion, but why encourage that sort of thinking is ok?

        Goodness, that was almost logical. (General Chat) - norway, Aug 9, 23:18:39
        
        I'm also a little unsure how expressing attraction 'reduces' anyone. (General Chat) - norway, Aug 9, 23:40:23
        
        Most of the women referred to in that way on here are rarely mentioned in any other contex (General Chat) - King, Aug 9, 23:53:30
        
        Pretty aggressive and accusatory. (General Chat) - norway, Aug 10, 00:05:28
        
        I'm just explaining how wrong-headed your statement above is (General Chat) - King, Aug 10, 00:12:37

        It's not my objective to demonise you (General Chat) - King, Aug 10, 00:49:16
        
        No, that is exactly what you have sought to do. (General Chat) - norway, Aug 10, 08:51:28
        
        Misogyny includes the sexual objectification of women... (n/m) (General Chat) - avenging canary, Aug 9, 23:44:39
        
        Straight from wikipedia. Well done. (General Chat) - norway, Aug 9, 23:50:05
        
        Nope. I'll leave that to you. (General Chat) - avenging canary, Aug 10, 00:05:26
        
        Funny that. (General Chat) - norway, Aug 10, 00:07:40
        
        I didn't expect to convince you. (General Chat) - King, Aug 9, 23:34:35
        
        My what? (General Chat) - norway, Aug 9, 23:45:22
        
        It''s not misogyny if you find the target attractive. (General Chat) - avenging canary, Aug 9, 22:23:46
        
        Plus the 'target' of such affections should be flattered by such lovely attention... (n/m) (General Chat) - Ralf Scrampton, Aug 9, 23:02:14
        
        This is getting odd. (General Chat) - norway, Aug 9, 23:21:33
        
        Just highlighting the word 'target' hardly makes the attention sound welcome (n/m) (General Chat) - Ralf Scrampton, Aug 9, 23:26:47
