Object.org - Campaigning Against 'Sex-Object Culture'

I discovered Object recently, and then was reminded of them when reading the article in Company Magazine. They are a human rights organisation which campaigns against 'Sex-Object Culture'. They explain that this is a culture where women are increasingly sexualised as 'sex objects' in our media and our every day lives.

The FAQ section is a good one, answering questions such as "But, isn’t it all just a bit of harmless fun?" and "But what if it’s a woman’s choice to be a glamour model or lap dancer?" which are both valid questions.


This fact sheet is also very interesting reading - Here
