Thank you for printing Helen Alvarre's article on female objectification [Female Objectification Not All Fault of Men]. For far too long, we've just accepted the exploitation of women and girls as "the way things are." But, as a mother and grandmother, I'd like to see a better circumstance.
I agree that females are contributing to their own degradation by adopting "the world's" pattern of dress, speech and behavior. Getting them to actually see their own responsibility is an uphill battle, but I'm not giving up -- especially with Helen Alvaré leading the cavalry!
