World's Most Famous Man: The Awful Gender Politics of "We Saw Your Boobs"

So let me just get two things out of the way before I get really, really deep in detail about one specific aspect of the Oscars intro last night:

1) it was super, super-long and self-indulgent. Even by Oscar standards. It was like half an hour before anybody got an award and I laughed maybe…

“The sexuality-as-contest-between-men-and-women thing is bubbling underneath so much that is awful: rape culture, workplace harassment, slut-shaming, abuse-themed porn, pick-up artist culture, etc., etc. It sets aside women as a separate thing from a person, and makes them into an object that is ‘ruined’ by sex or nudity.”
