Objectification & Sexualisation Workshop

Objectification is a core concept in feminist thought, often used for articulating what is going wrong in phenomena like catcalling, sexist advertising, and unwelcome sexual attention.

At the same time, treating one another as sexual agents, even sexual objects, has been defended as an often important and joyful part of life.

On the 4th December, five researchers presented their work on objectification, sexualisation, and related issues at a one-day conference at the University of Leeds organised by CLSR visiting fellow Dr Rosa Vince.

Programme:

• Ana Cláudia Barbosa - Spectral Subjugation: Posthuman Objectification of Women in the Digital Age
• Matthew J. Cull - Objectification in Posthumanist Feminism
• Regina Fidelis Ilagan - A Consumable Monster: The South East Asian Sex Worker
• Matthew Robson - Varieties of Sexual Exclusion
• Kate Yuan - Sexual Humiliation as a State Project
