Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, including your edits to Sexism, but we cannot accept original research. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, and ideas—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. NeilN talk to me 20:12, 18 May 2015 (UTC)
Mr. and/or Ms. Bikini, I get what you are going toward with your Sexism edit. Objectification doesn't necessarily have to be a bad thing, could be construed as a value neutral in some situations, and may actually benefit some. Consider a male stripper who makes his living precisely because he precisely fits a stereotype that certain people treat as their guilty pleasure.
However, for me or you to simply point this out is considered original research. If you want to include the digression you're going to have to find somewhere where someone else has already published this idea, or preferably lots of people. The more the merrier. It's an interesting and unexplored nuance. Don't get discouraged. You've just got to go about it the right way. Timothyjosephwood (talk) 01:52, 20 May 2015 (UTC)
