I'm actually being sardonic. The political correctness police are a bit tiresome. My point is that, if one wishes, they can analyze any statement to be as sexist, racist, homophobic, etc... Including yours.
>The degradation that I saw was that, in the analogy, women are sexually objectified
If women are 'sexually objectified' by other women is it a problem?
Why did you overlook the completely racist message in his analogy? Assuming most men prefer blonds assumes white culture, which is racist since I doubt black and asian men feel the same. I don't know, maybe I'm racist for doubting that assumption?
Also if a character's gender isn't identified in a story, is it sexist to assume that character's gender is the same as the storyteller? I was guilty of that one too.
This where the P.C. police trip over their own logic and fall into the pile of B.S. they've created.
