There is a phrase "you are the average of the 5 people you spend the most time with". I think this applies to our internet usage here(such as the generally toxic gamefaqs). But as also in real life, if you are surrounded by people that are constantly doom and gloom, lying, and will intentionally or unintentionally sabotage your efforts, that will eventually wear you down to become like them.
I definitely objectify women more when Im with my one friend even though Im also preaching how shallow it is lol. I think being open is a huge part cause if you aren't open then they become more like who they think you are instead of who you actually are too. I feel like people are more honest about themselves arou d me cause Im constantly making jokes about all my faults. I love the relationships Ive created
if women didn't want to be objectified they wouldn't dress the way they do lol.
I don't know though, I'm not convinced being open will fix it the toxic feedback cycle loop. I think it could help in some cases, but probably not all or near enough.
