Thus '''objectification''' including '''sexual objectication''' is a matter of reducing a person into a position of always being perceived, never perceiving.  For example mention of [[Jennifer Love Hewitt]] is probably an invocation of a sexually attraction or celebrity pattern, not likely much to do with the woman herself as a person.

[[God's Eye View]] and [[rape]] are two extreme examples of subject object issues that create or justify extreme [[unequal power relationship]]s, those being, between [[priestly hierarchy]] and ordinary worshippers, and between rapist and those raped.  These relationships are simply imposed by force on an unwilling object who is forced to submit to them, regardless of consequences. Some believe [[colonialism]] is also a product of exactly the same phenomena, and that [[technological escalation]] is closely related to these same issues.
