The author of landmark manifesto Whipping Girl exposes the violent ways we are all sexualized—then offers a bold path for resistance.
Feminists have long challenged the ways in which men tend to sexualize women. But pioneering activist, biologist, and trans woman Julia Serano argues that sexualization is a far more pervasive problem, as it’s something that we all do to other people, often without being aware of it.
Why do we perceive men as sexual predators and women as sexual objects? Why are LGBTQ+ people stereotyped as being sexually indiscriminate and deceptive? Why are people of color still being hypersexualized? These stereotypes push minorities farther into the margins, and even the privileged are policed from transgressing, lest they also become targets. Many view sexualization as a mere component of sexism, racism, or queerphobia, but Serano argues that liberation from sexual violence comes through collectively confronting sexualization itself.

Us? This is a dude complaining about men sexualizing women. At least have a straight woman write this book, because there really ain’t many men sexualizing trans-people, and having a trans or lesbian writing these books will always have an agenda against men. This is coming from a liberal.

This book relates to one reason I have serious issues with modern feminism. A feminist research did a review of pictures of women in the 70s and found that women often had their heads cropped in images (among other things) then she was cited in a feminist book published in the 2010s claiming that nothing had changed, which was based on, I kid you not, her opening one magazine and skimming through it for less than a minute while standing at an airport book store.
The first article was good science in that it included a means of validating her findings, was thorough and what did and didn’t count as sexual imagery clearly explained, the second was … cult of personality I guess?
Anyway, I used her 1970 metrics on modern magazines. Took three months and thousands of magazines. I’m OCD like that. Anyway, she’s wrong, things have changed, women aren’t cropped in the way she was complaining about anymore. But men are, especially in teen magazines targeted towards women. I thought that was interesting, so I tried to publish my findings, and was rejected by eight feminist journals because this true thing I found and proved in a verifiable fashion wasn’t appropriate for publication and/or was offensive. Keep that in mind the next time a feminist tells you that feminism is about equality.
Anyway, I don’t mind being sexualized, I’m totally good with it in fact, because my body is still better than my personality, so sexualize away.

The more charitable construction is that everyone is being sexualised by everyone else (as it says) to an extent. There is certainly a concern (amongst parents) about the sexualisation of minors, when ideally a latency phase ought to be facilitated & respected, in terms of development. Any sexualisation of children is an act of violence.
With regard to adult sexuality, objectification is, of necessity, the primary stage. It’s just necessary, and healthy, to move rapidly beyond that narrow dynamic.

Sexualise them- Misogyny
Don’t Sexualise them- Misogyny.
You just can’t win.

Not being sexualised would be preferable. It isn’t fun being a receptacle made use of in public places by people who need to “relieve themselves”. Enough to put one off the idea of sex for good…
Also I know nothing about the author, but “trans people aren’t sexualised” is the opposite of true, given they’re one of the most popular porn categories, up there with “rape” and “brown person has a large thing”.
