In a recent piece written for a magazine cover shoot with Kareena Kapoor, the writer wrote about the actor’s sex appeal. It’s nice to see women being looked at like that, without being criticized for it. The piece, however received mixed opinions from people. While it was refreshing to see a woman for her sexuality, there are more ways to do it, than using language that paints an almost objectifying image. The discourse is also subjective, but if something is wrong, it’s wrong. However, this also made me think of how lusting over women mostly boils down to a derogatory emotion – which it shouldn’t be. It’s not that women don’t like it, but when it turns into something uncomfortable it’s bound to get negative. To lust is to want someone, and why should women be deprived of that? So, we asked women what it means to them to be a subject of lust. Click the link in the bio to read what they said. #SWEditDesk #NSFW
