Objectification

I realised that women will objectify themselves to obtain benefit, but then denigrate objectification for further benefit.
Any identifying is in a sense objectification — since what is identified becomes in a sense an object, in the sense that ‘an object’ means a tangible thing and thus objectification a ‘something becoming tangible’. Any stance anyone adopts is always in a sense objectification, since stances are nothing in a sense without the most minuscule degree of objectiveness or thingness.
The primary process of capitalism is objectification. Capitalism is impossible without objectification, and capitalism objectifies experience to be able to monetise it.
People seek objectification through ratings such as grades, gaming and sports scoring, and beauty contests. (See Homo ludus.)
