I suppose they're not being "objectified" if the character show they have agency and personality beyond being a character that's getting sexualised.
So a character who just bursts into the room to hop on dick is bad,
but a character who bursts into the room, has a cup of coffee and talks about their day... AND THEN hops on dick is good.
Frankly it's just a load of wank. They're characters, they essentially are 'objects', they have a purpose (to turn us on and convey the sexual story) and that's what they're there for.
It's like complaining about the physical abuse a hammer is going through, and asking whether the hammer's emotions and well being is being considered.
>Objectification
I fucking hate this terminology, and this theory anyway.
Do you know what I want to have sex with? Other humans!
Do you know what I don't want to have sex with? Objects! I don't want to fuck my chair, or my computer, or my bed, or a plate.
The idea that treating each other in a very human way, and seeing them sexually, is somehow treating them as less human... it's just so fucking brain dead it drives me up the wall.
>"But didn't you just say fictional character are essentially objects?"
Shut up.
