One feminist psychological definition of objectification is the combination of 1) extra scrutiny of women, leading to the 2) breaking down of visualizing women into discrete body parts, which 3) leads to mentally processing them more as a collection of organized objects than people.

I think it’s clear that trans women not only receive this sort of treatment from society (being explicitly broken down into body parts [‘sorry abt your dick’]), but also that people who pride themselves on subjecting trans women to extreme scrutiny in order to pick apart their individualized body parts to ascertain their assigned sex are enacting the exact definition of patriarchal and misogynist objectification

So you use the word “psychological” and think it’s enough to be tagged under psychology? I don’t see any psychology here.
