Professors weigh in on objectification of women after Walmart removes Cosmopolitan from checkout lines

By Theodora Mattei | April 24

Walmart recently announced that chains across the country will remove Cosmopolitan from checkout lines, citing the magazine’s objectifying material, according to USA TODAY.

While Cosmopolitan can still be found in Walmart’s magazine racks, some wonder where people should draw the line between sexual empowerment and sexual objectification.
