• No creo que exista tal cosa como la cosificación masculina... Creo que esa palabra sólo existe con las mujeres porque hay presiones sociales para que se comporten de una determinada manera y tengan un determinado aspecto. Alguien me lo dijo una vez: Las mujeres son objetos sexuales y los hombres son objetos de éxito. Me pareció muy interesante.

  Joe Manganiello

• Objectification is a critical reason why an abuser tends to get worse over time. As his conscience adapts to one level of cruelty-he builds to the next. By depersonalizing his partner, the abuser protects himself from the natural human emotions of guilt and empathy, so that he can sleep at night with a clear conscience. He distances himself so far from her humanity that her feelings no longer count, or simply cease to exist.

• La conversación sobre el cuerpo de las mujeres existe en gran medida fuera de nosotras, pero también se dirige a nosotras y se comercializa con nosotras, y se utiliza para definirnos y controlarnos. La conversación sobre las mujeres se produce en todas partes, en público y en privado. Se nos describe y detalla, se analizan y desmenuzan nuestros rostros y cuerpos, se determina y atribuye nuestro valor basándose en la reducción de la personalidad a la simple objetivación física. Nuestras voces, nuestra personalidad, nuestro potencial y nuestros logros se minimizan y silencian con regularidad.

• Communism... is the genuine resolution of the antagonism between man and nature and between man and man; it is the true resolution of the conflict between existence and essence, objectification and self-affirmation, freedom and necessity, individual and species. It is the riddle of history solved and knows itself as the solution.

• El asalto a nuestra imagen corporal, la hipersexualización de niñas y mujeres y la subsiguiente degradación de nuestra sexualidad a medida que avanzamos en las décadas, y la incesante cosificación general es de lo que realmente trata esta conversación supuestamente sobre mi cara.

• Plenty of women say, "I'm just going to make myself into a sex object." But they often can't stay afloat doing that. They can't maintain their sanity. Some women can, but many cannot. They think they can, but self-objectification is really dangerous.

• The objectification of females is not a good thing! Not every rapper does this, but when the lyrics focus solely on the strip club, 'poppin' bottles' and how many girls they can 'tap,' it distorts what kids are learning. I think if there was more of a female presence in hip hop we could break up the monotony. It's all about balance.

• Modern schools and universities push students into habits of depersonalized learning, alienation from nature and sexuality, obedience to hierarchy, fear of authority, self-objectification, and chilling competitiveness. These character traits are the essence of the twisted personality-type of modern industrialism. They are precisely the character traits needed to maintain a social system that is utterly out of touch with nature, sexuality and real human needs.

• Pornography is not egalitarian and gender-free. It is predicated upon the inequality of women and is the propaganda that makes that inequality sexy. For women to find passive, objectified men sexy in large enough numbers to make a pornography industry based upon such images viable, would require the reconstruction of women's sexuality into a ruling-class sexuality. In an egalitarian society objectification would not exist and therefore the particular buzz provided by pornography, the excitement of eroticised dominance for the ruling class, would be unimaginable.

• Playboy has a long history of high-quality interviews along with the objectification of women, and so I think she does have a point there. I don't think that the words are necessarily nullified. It's just that that context is something you ought to be suspicious of.

• Don't forget that costumes, like dreams, are symbolic communication. Dreams teach us that a language for everything exists - for every object, every color worn, every clothing detail. Hence, costumes provide an aesthetic objectification that helps to tell the character's story.

• In assembling this group of portraits of women, I'm aware that I'm treading on dangerous ground. When I was in college, I learned to be distrustful of men's depictions of women. I remember seeing Garry Winogrand's book Women Are Beautiful in the school library and being shocked that it hadn't been defaced for its blatant objectification of women. But looking back, maybe I was too harsh. Whether one photographs men or women, it is always a form of objectification. Whatever you say about Winogrand, his depiction was honest.

• El mal no es más que una palabra, una objetivación donde no es necesaria ninguna objetivación. La triste verdad es que poseemos una inclinación innata hacia la indiferencia, hacia la negación deliberada de la misericordia, hacia la desvinculación de todo lo que hay de moral en nosotros. Pero si eso es demasiado terrible, llamémoslo maldad. Y pintémoslo con fuego y veneno.

• What it does remind us is that 'God' is not to be separated from the quest for the Kingdom of God and is not and cannot be the object of any detached 'scientific' contemplation. Heidegger's critique of onto-theology is also driving a wedge between speaking of God and the aims of science - not so as to get rid of God but rather to free God from a false objectification.
