Status Updates From Objectification (Gender Ins...

"Any kind of person or animal can be objectified in the sense of being stripped of autonomy and volition, and being treated as an instrument for gain of others."

I have to read this for class. This is me tracking my summary of what I've learnt.
E.g. objectification can be taking pictures and recording voice. Turn them into object ≠ sexual.

quote abt ariana grande:
[She] describes herself as Italian-American and the social and cultural markers of [her identity and stardom] are all inflected with an ethnicity and an agency that resists [WASP] norms and values. [...] It also reflects the ways in which [...] Grande offers [...] an opposition to ideas of femininity and feminism that are grounded exclusively in the white experience.
she IS white???
