  > If it makes you feel better, anime men get the exact same treatment. I find this to be a big difference that sets the U.S.A. apart from the other two media giants: India and Japan. India and Japan are far better it seems at tapping the market of male sexualization and U.S.A. media has never quite done that. I would in fact argue that this non-sexualization of males seems to be a very Anglo-Saxon cultural property, but many other cultures do not have the large media market to show it. I've seen quite a few comments coming from the Anglo-Saxon world about the Internationally released Swedish series Love & Anarchy, about how surprisingly attractive and sexualized the males were.

  > Watch some porn on xvideos.com and lose all hope in humanity. There's a difference between sexism and sexualization in entertainment. Say one could enjoy some kinky porn and at the same time not treat all women as objects in day to day life. The same way you could enjoy a violent movie and not go on a killing spree afterwards. There's clearly a demand for this kind of stuff and I don't see any point in trying to shame it out of view - it won't change the fact that people enjoy it (they'll just enjoy it in secret). _edit_ Not sure why op deleted the above comment, he did have some valid (altho a bit dramatic) points. Looking back the line that I quoted might have been sarcasm.
