Women were objectified in similar ways such as the sexualizing aspect of it but the way one of the woman he interviews depicts nakedness in art as “too distracting” or “too exaggerated” which in one hand I can agree with to a certain extent, it could be too distracting from the actual concept of the art piece to certain viewers but on the other hand I still insist everything is all about perspective you can look at a nude painting and easily assume sexuality but with a mature & open mind you can look at a painting and not necessarily always think sexual. In European tradition nude implies an awareness of being seen by the spectator; “they’re not named as they are but how you choose to view the painting.” perfectly describes how perspective/Interpretation plays a big role. I do believe Nowadays women have more control in how they wanna be perceived,  Although they definitely do not have control in how not only men but also other women want to interpret them.
