What about men?, asks Washington Post: You can see Tonga’s flag-bearer, Pita Nikolas Taufatofua, leading his delegation during the Opening Ceremonies of the 2016 Summer Games in Rio de Janeiro.

You can also take a look at this Video, posted by AJ+: It may be objectification,
but what about realizing that there is no reverse racism?
In the meanwhile, MEN who drool after a pretty woman are acting perfectly normally, according to a new study: But what about women, dear Washington Post? Why MEN who drool after a pretty woman are acting perfectly normally, but any woman who does the same thing is such a threat for us all?
What this video demonstrates is what is sexism, and what is not. The body shaming or even the body objectification referring to a man's body is not sexist because in general there is never such thing, as reverse racism. That does not mean that it is not possible even for a black woman to hate me, but what about her reasons, what about her oppression? And when it comes to the body objectification, for a black woman or a trans woman, that may be fatal.
It is also true that the man in this video is more victiom of racism, because he is objectified as a so-called Exotic Guy, but he also seems to enjoy it. In the same time i am oppressed as a fat man, but not because i am a man. That is easy to understand if you also considerate that a fat woman is hated much more than me, while the exotic women in Brazil or elsewhere can be murdered if they are objectified!
