Science Proves Men Think of Immodestly Dressed Women as Objects

In the same way that people become desensitized to violence, men who grow up seeing immodestly dressed women become desensitized to them being “fully three dimensional humans”.

Is all of this why there has been an increase in violence against women these past few decades?

Full story here.

Professor Susan Fiske, of Princeton University, told the American Association for the Advancement of Science annual meeting that she believes that the results show that some men did not see sexualised women as a “human”.

“I am not saying that they literally see them as an object, of course they know she is human,” she said.

“But what the brain scans show is that they are reacting to this photograph as people react to objects. It is as if they are not fully human.

“They are not treating them as fully three dimensional humans.”
