objectification goes two ways
some men daydream about Kim Kardashian’s ***
some women gawk at pictures of Zac Efron’s abs
we all argue with one another
and complain about double standards
while continually perpetuating them
true equality will only come
when we see more than our bodies
when we look past physical appearances
and understand
we are more than our shells
that at the core
we are all humans
with goals
dreams
hopes
fears
and anxieties
once we learn to look into each other’s souls
we will all truly be more than
objects
