The #MeToo movement has been a positive good.It has encouraged women to speak out about men who have abused them and degraded them. It has encouraged men to think twice before engaging in such brutal behavior. But the #MeToo movement wasn’t just about stopping sexual assault and abuse: it was about female dignity. It was about women not being treated as sex objects, and men treating women as fully-rounded human beings.So last night’s Grammys was rather off the mark . . . . . . Men should always treat women with care and dignity. But women should also treat themselves with dignity, and avoid making themselves into stereotypical sexualized cutouts for the pleasure of men. And let’s be frank: a huge percentage of pop songs are male masturbation material masquerading as female empowerment. There’s a reason female pop stars dress provocatively in their music videos, and it’s not because they’re just “more comfortable†that way . . .
