Anticipation/Reaction Guide #4

"In today's world, men treat more as equals than as objects."  I disagree with that statement for several reasons.  I'll agree that they are treated more as equals know than how they were treated 50 years ago, but I think that the majority of men in the world still treat women as objects.  Women can vote, and have important jobs in most of the world.  But if you put one bad teenager who doesn't know right from wrong, they are very likely to treat a woman like an object.  Men still rape and sexually abuse women.  I'll say that there is more of men treating women as objects considering every country in Africa and the women that get raped sexually abused there.  Magazines also discriminate against women.  They show nude photos of them advertising a product so that men will want to buy the product.  You see naked women on bars of soap and many other products.  Also men just treat women with disrespect.  If a woman with her hands full is walking behind you hold the door open for her and not let it close in her face.  As much as I hate it more women are treated as objects than as equals.
