(disclaimers not withstanding, for if it is not directed at me, then who is it being directed at?) But regardless of who it is directed at, the message is plain.
Not to mention that the crux of this issue is not with women posting pictures of themselves on the internet, but simply walking out of their door on any particular day where they will encounter people who have no idea what they're doing on the internet.

Yes you misunderstood. ngdawg's statement is if someone acts/dresses/projects themselves in a sexual manner they shouldn't be offended when people think of them in that context. You here is the imperial you so to speak.
You took it a step beyond though using the concept of exploitation, and I agree with ngdawg on this. IF you project your own sexuality you shouldn't be offended when thats picked up on. To use TFP for example even though it really doesn't matter what the example is, if you post pictures of your vagina spread eagle and then get upset if someone says 'I'd hit it' you are being unrealistic and naive.
You are not being exploited because someone thinks you are fuckable.
So I need to ask again, what is this exploitation that has you so upset? If its just that someone might say they would like to have sex with you when you are acting in a sexual way, I can't agree thats even wrong or close to exploitation. No one is defending someone just walking up to some random female and saying 'Oh I'd hit that, ya hey der mamma', but thats something completely different from the OP or even the concept of language such as this in the male vernacular.
