MM, you really don't objectify men when their members aren't displayed for you? No offense, but that strikes me as a bit odd.

one of the explanations:
an erroneous word that, etymologically, means the exact opposite of what it is used to express, attested in non-standard writing from 1912, probably a blend of irrespective and regardless. Perhaps inspired by the double negative used as an emphatic.
OK, back to ogling, hitting and sexism
Why does how she sees men seem odd? Personally, I envision them all with their pants off, but that's probably seen as odd too. Bet lots of ladies here played the "boxers or briefs" guessing game. Would that be considered "objectifying"?
