Video Clip in Discussion Session

The video clip, shown in the last discussion for the Tuesday 5:00pm session, was quite interesting and I thought that the sexualization of kids and the objectification of women have a lot to do with the sexualization of sex itself. What I mean by the sexualization of sex is that we constrain ourselves of sex in general in spite of the fact that sex is an intrinsic desire for us. A guy in the clip said, "sex sells." But, it is not the actual sex, of course, that we are buying. It's like a fractured form of supply to our demand. Yeah, sex sells because the situation is like this: a real meat-eater eating veggie patties for meal knowing that s/he really wants to eat a 2lb medium rare Kobe beef steak for dinner.
