Self-objectification

Self-objectification is viewing oneself as an object for use instead of as a person. Self-objectification is a result of objectification, and is commonly discussed in the topic of sex and gender.^[1] Both men and women struggle with self-objectification, but it is most commonly seen among women.^[2] According to Calogero, self-objectification explains the psychological process by which women internalise others' objectification of their bodies, resulting in them constantly criticizing their own bodies.^[3]
