Lets say a woman you don't know very well came right out said you had a nice chest and butt. Would you be offended? What if she said she was impressed by your job and your car? (money objectifying) Would you be offended?
I'm pretty sure that most males like female attention of most any kind. I remember once a girl I never met came up to me and squeezed my butt nice and hard. I turned around shocked and she just giggled with her friend that was with her, I was not offended
Are there any times you would be offended by female objectification? It only happened to me once and that was on a date where this woman started to quiz and assess my financial potential like some nasty bank manager. Asked questions like if I went to college, did I have my own house yet, what I'm doing for work and how do I like it, etc. I guess the other example where I've been offended is when I'm automatically expected to pay for everything but that has more to do with self entitlement and expected gender roles instead of objectifying.
Nope. I can't control what another person thinks and quite frankly it's nice to be appreciated by someone else. I really don't mind being physically objectified.

Neither of those are really examples of objectification, though. they're just compliments. Objectifying someone is treating them like a thing that doesn't have thoughts or feelings or opinions. A woman in a bikini at a car show is objectified, because she's just there to look pretty like a decoration. If a woman told you to shut up and take your shirt off, because no one cares what you think, that might be more of an objectification.

It's not purely about physically objectifying someone and treating them like a sex toy. Of course men don't mind that aspect. But put them in any of the other scenarios, like taking away their self determination or making them feel as if they are owned, then they may have a different answer altogether.
Nice and hard ? are you sure was that your butt she was squeezing
By the way I am not looking at men butts even if I look I don't go squeeze and give compliments.
