Am I wrong for thinking article titles like this are demeaning?

Target is both to hit your sense of justice (I’m a male feminist) but also engage the innate urge to see the photos. Example

Anne Hathaway criticized by chauvinists for being too sexy on the red carpet

Oh wow, I hate sexism so much I better check out these photos!! so I can…support women?

It CAN work for men but is usually not demeaning. Chris Pratt went from adorable pudge to sexy muscleman, click here to see him shirtless! Not the same I guess.

The correct answer is to block that news site or whatever they call themselves, and don't give them clicks.

The whole article is almost certainly demeaning, as you would expect of a celebrity gossip rag.

That's disgusting! Where?

Thats not even a weightlifter body lol.

Incels just think anything other than questionable consent with somebody who looks like a child is actually gay.

Imo the article writers probably feel that they are decrying the way people are demeaning her, but it's just adding visibility for the judgemental.

At least it contains the word “shamed”. Shaming someone is usually seen as unfair and judgmental.

The title is clickbait, a regular thing for "magazines", while the article itself clarifies things.

You aren't wrong. It is in poor taste. More so considering the article says the comment was made by "fans" who felt disappointed her body shape didn't fit their imagination.

This "shaming" or the "shit storm" is usually (and I think here too) just some Incels commenting on Instagram. As Instagram optimizes for maximum engagement, the stupidest and most controversial take is always at the top of the comments, that's how we end up with these idiots getting their platform. And these "news sites" then make a big deal out of a few losers also as engagement bait. This whole system is fucked

I don't know what this article is about, and I'd rather not engage with this segment of society to find out, but from a quick Google images search it seems like she recently (?) caught flack for a Valentino dress, which was very sheer and through which her nipples could be seen. But anyone who's been paying any attention to fashion at all would know that sheer is very much "in". The latest Yves Saint Laurent line is a prime example of this. As for the quality of her body, which seems to be an unusually frequent topic, why's it anyone's business? Can a woman exist anywhere on this planet and not be objectified and scrutinized like livestock?

I'm guessing you have not been alive long enough to remember that newspapers, especially tabloids, have always been demeaning of women. To be honest I think headline is timid sounding compared to twenty years ago, when tabloids were more popular and running sensationalist headlines, and the picture of the person being always the most unflattering. I don't really see that kind of reporting nowadays, but it is now on social media where sensationalist shaming happens.

You claim to dislike it, yet you gave it greater reach by posting it on Lemmy. Good job! Or maybe your actual job, assuming you are being paid to shill for whatever rag this came from.

Every time those perfect faces or perfect bodies are projected into media, it demeans us all.

I think it would be best if they drew attention to the people who are being horrible, instead of repeating the horrible things they said. So yeah, you're not wrong for thinking this is demeaning.

In a just world the publisher of this article would need to submit for anti-misogynist reeducation.

demeaning? maybe. but like they say, any exposure is good exposure. would not mind seeing her exposed either
