Objectifiable 2021

Janet Kuypers
12/7/21 a continuation of
the 2013 poem “Objectifiable

I’ve experienced it
for I don’t know
how many years,
men degrading women.

When I was walking
down the street today,
a man in an ugly mini-van
stuck his head
out of his window
to holler for me

Wow,
lucky me.

I’m still
objectifiable.

But don’t worry,
objectification transcends
physical proximity,
even in post-
coronavirus times,
while many places
are still closed...

I was interviewed
on a Chicago radio station
where men could still
post on a YouTube video
that

“I would like to see you
wear something
a bit more revealing.

You have a nice rack.”

Because yes,
lucky us,
being as objectifiable
as we all are —
female objectification
even transcends
the Internet.

Yes, lucky me indeed.
