Looking at both sexes

[rainforests1]

Your feminist type considers a male who looks at women as sexist(vice versa doesn't seem to bother them much though). What about a male who looks at both sexes? Is it wrong?

Why does what other people think matter?

Men tend to be more visual than women, and women do not tend to leer, gawk, and yell sexual things at strange men quite as often as some men do to women. . My adult son, for example, has had stuff yelled at him from cars as he is out running or walking, but always from men.
Feminists are not banning men from merely looking at us

There are more than two genders.

But the thing feminists tend to take issue with is objectification and unwanted/constant sexualisation. Not just 'looking'.

Men tend to be more visual than women

There's a long list of male singers(Usher, Justin Timberlake, Justin Bieber, Michael Buble, Josh Groban, many "boy bands") that are considered good looking and popular with a female fan base. I believe both rock and rap music have more of a male fan base where many of the males aren't considered attractive. If the music industry is any indicator, I'd say women are just as bad that way if not worse.

Boy bands are mostly for young teenage girls. It is a safe way to have a crush on someone that you never have to actually talk to.

Many women do have a thing for musicians, but it is more the aural than the visual imo.

I can vouch for this. It's the voice that gets to you first when you hear the music played somewhere. Later when you check to see who the band is, it's a nice bonus when the voice turns out to belong to some really hot guy rocker with long hair. But even if the guy isn't hot, it doesn't make the voice or music any less enjoyable.

Plus dancing! Anyone that makes music helps cause dancing to occur, and that is always a good thing!

Yet modern dance music is mostly garbage.

Sunshine, there is lots of kinds of music out there to dance to besides that named "dance" or "club" music.

An opinion.

What's not an opinion: there aren't just two sexes. Genetics is a bit messier than that.
(Of course, that's not relevant to what you were saying at all, but you have a tendency to go off on tangents, you zany goof, you, so I'm just trying my hand at the same.)
