Actually that is incorrect. All such conclusions rest on the interpretation of the graphic, and interpretation is guided or even controlled by the biases of the observer. So objectification, like beauty, lies in the eyes of the beholder. So people who detect objectification in an arrangement of pixels should be forbidden from interpreting imagery. Such a policy is NOT censorship -- it is more an exercise of preventive medicine. One might as well object to the data downloaded on the basis that the bits involved were recycled rather than fresh. Prohibit images composed of stale bits! Not. Lee Winter Nashua, New Hampshire United States of America
