Objectification of the Feminine body?
This term refers to the tendency to treat an individual not as a person with emotions and thoughts, but as a physical being or “object.” In most cases, it refers to thinking of a person not as a door stop, but as a sexual object, there to provide pleasure to others. An objectified image in this sense would be one that emphasizes the person's sexuality, usually by showing a fair amount of skin. In the majority of cases, objectification refers to the portrayal of a semi-clothed woman's body intended to emphasize her sexuality.

Thinking about the person can help you relate better to that person's humanity- and your own.
We, the student body at John Paul II Junior College call on Mrs. Tut and her family to eliminate or remove the calendar with images of semi-naked women from its current location. It makes of a woman an object and draws the attention of the student population.
