(19,497 posts)* I ask in the OP if wearing make-up is part of the objectification of women.
* In the OP I also admit that the SI kerfuffle is the reason for my asking because, to be honest, I'm just not getting it; "it" being the reason for such a deep, abiding angst over the swimsuit issue.
* Nonetheless there are those who are upset over the swimsuit issues seem so determined to make this an issue I am left to feel as if I am as a woman betraying their cause.
* You keyed-in on that sentiment and declared that some women may indeed find DU a hostile environment.
* I took your comment -- rightly or wrongly -- to refer to those women who are upset over the swimsuit issue.
* Assuming I was correct as to whom your comment referred, you appear sympathetic to their feelings that would imply that they are on the right side of the argument
* Ergo my lack of getting it puts me on the wrong side of the kerfuffle thereby justifying their disappointment in me as a woman, a traitor to my gender
