About This Quote

As creatures of the flesh, we humans are a highly sexualized species. We have a very persistent and primal urge to breed. Our sexual drive is so strong that we often view our sexual partners as objects. When we have sex with another person, we have no emotional connection to that person.

They are just a means to an end. In order for us to breed, our partner must be present, willing and able. Unfortunately, for too many people in the world today, the above description does not fit them.

In many cases, men treat women as objects rather than as fellow human beings who have thoughts and feelings of their own. This is especially true when it comes to child brides and female genital mutilation.
