"They think they are being objectified." as a woman... have to say, only in certain cases, under certain circumstances. I think a better way to describe it, if a man makes an untoward advance, is that we women feel sometimes threatened by the act. To some degree I think this is a biological response: women are simply smaller than men on average, and so there's some good old fashioned fear of being forced into a sexual situation against our will. Personally I never found a man's sexual anatomy to be all that attractive to me, it depended on the personality of the man much more so than just his appearance. So, if a man exposes his genitals to me without any rhyme or reason, I'm likely to feel disturbed by the situation. However with art its different... I don't feel disturbed by a rendering of a naked man in any way, shape or form. Art is not a potential physical threat, like a man in your personal space can be. However from a familiar and wanted man... I think the response would be to be flattered and perhaps flirtatious, a real boost to the self esteem, I'm sure of that.
