This is all going to end SO badly for her.
It isn't. It's all part of her plan. She's at Michael Mansfield's chambers. She has been building a profile as a feminist, activist lawyer/self-publicist, as can be seen from her website: http://www.charlotteproudman.com/Zod said:

She's toxic, probably a man hater and clearly likes to set down her own terms. I doubt she'll ever have a proper relationship with a man. She'll be to busy bossing him around and telling him how she wants him to behave.
So marriage then. Poor sod."To honour and obey"? Stop raping me with your mental desires, churchperson.

Christ, that's grasping at straws.
I cannot believe suposedly intelligent people can't grasp the difference in context - Facebook, OK / Linkedin Not OK / A cocktailbar, OK / The Bar, Not OK.
This isn't that complex, FFS.
Surely when it comes to sexual objectification - it's not ok in any context. I cannot believe suposedly intelligent people can't grasp the difference in context - Facebook, OK / Linkedin Not OK / A cocktailbar, OK / The Bar, Not OK.

As a feminist - would she be happy to be 'sexually objectified' just as long as it only happened on facebook or in social rather than professional circumstances?

I suspect it depends if she found 'the hypothetically accused' attractive or not.As a feminist - would she be happy to be 'sexually objectified' just as long as it only happened on facebook or in social rather than professional circumstances?

I dont know, you'd have to ask her if she's out for a shag.
What you said earlier is 'if she didnt want the attention then....' when she's not gone out explicitly looking for attention. It might be implicit, as in, that's a good photo, makeup en pointe, my good side, I'll use that one. It might be something else.
But by you adding a condition of 'well, if you dont want the attention dont do x' is backwards. It's primal thinking. In feminist speak, it's male entitlement. Maybe there's a train of thought that says 'People can dress or act how they want and not be objectified as to whether that makes them more or less shaggable'
Put another way, some men tend to look at women and decide whether they'd have sex with them. Some men then tell women their decision. At no point has there ever been a hint, a suggestion or other explicit means of communicating with men, from women saying 'if I wear this or do my makeup like this it means I want you to tell me whether or not you'd fk me'
It's possible to tell someone they're good looking, or find them physically attractive, without wanting to fk them.What you said earlier is 'if she didnt want the attention then....' when she's not gone out explicitly looking for attention.

I recently told a bride at a wedding that she looked great. She did. Don't want to bang her though. Same with my wife's best friend.
From a chauvinistic point of view, she's got a tight ass, big tits, and could probably suck a golf ball through a garden hose.
Yet I can tell her she looks good without wanting to screw the bh.
Either way, it looks like you're agreeing to my opinion that a woman dressing a certain way isnt her saying
'if I wear this or do my makeup like this it means I want you to tell me whether or not you'd fk me'

Yep, as a single man who's primary function is to procreate I concur. And if no man (or woman) communicates that they would then there wouldn't be many of us left. It doesn't really matter if it's the women or the man, or if it's a comment, a wink, a touch or anything else, someone has to start the ball rolling, and shouldn't be at risk of ending up in the papers if they're not interested.She purposely chose to present herself in the best possible light, why? Because in spite of her protestations she knows fine well that appearances matter both in work and social and situations.
But in any case she's certainly found the right way to ensure she doesn't get any further attention from men. Women maybe.

When I was a single man, I was quite keen on avoiding procreating at all costs. Actually, still am, but that's less common.She should count herself lucky she doesn't live in capitalist china
