Objectification doesn't stop just because the 'receiver' is absent, or obscure.
I've nothing to offer on the subject of strippers except that if it is degrading, it's degrading in two directions.

I post pictures of myself on a message board full of gay guys and women too, thank you very much. I'm also fully clothed in every single picture, never even posted one of me in a bathing suit.
As for my lack of posting in other threads, most of you just talk about music I hate so I really have nothing constructive to offer there. Being a Sonic Youth fan is a thing of the past for me, I just like the people here. I try to post a bit though, but to be honest since I don't come here too often anymore I don't know what you people are talking about half the time.
