I'm pretty sure gold digging women are fine with being viewed as sex objects

Took the words out of my mouth. Or at least are fine exchanging one for the other to some degree.

Why is this so true though?

Not ironic. Do most people like going to work? No. But they do. Do most people like paying money for things? No. But your work pays you. You both sat down and negotiated. They wanted more work for less money, you wanted less work for more money. If you find a balance you can both tolerate you go for it. From there it’s ongoing. You’ll ask for raises, they’ll ask for extra work for free. You’ll goof off here and there, they’ll find ways and policies to “boost productivity.” You both want what the other has. But some jobs it doesn’t feel that way. You feel valued, appreciated. You like it even if you’d rather have more freedom and more money. They like you even if they’d rather have more work for less. They can only afford so much and you can only offer so much and you both understand it and it’s about more than trying to take what you can from the other. Maybe you even work for free sometimes or put extra effort. Maybe they let you get away with things where they can that cost time.

In plain English: wanting a man who owns a car, has his own place, can support himself doesn’t make you a gold digger. Being proud of your body or wanting to show it off doesn’t mean you’re using it to get men. A man buying nice clothes or watches or cars because he likes them and enjoys them doesn’t mean he’s using money to get women. A man who has money and spends money on people around him doesn’t either. It means he’s enjoying his money how he wants to. Men and women both will use their bodies to attract other people, especially if they have a body they know or think is attractive. That’s basic to the mating of most species of mammals and beyond. More over the logic is flawed as one can use their body to attract and get a person but notbget the money. Also consider that men “don’t like gold diggers” not men don’t like women who expect them to be self sufficient, and just because you show off or use your body doesn’t mean you want to be viewed as a sex object. Maybe it makes YOU..

... feel sexy and confident. Maybe you have a nice body but are intelligent, funny, and/or a good person, and you would like to be viewed as a complete person and not just a nice pair or a great butt or a machine for orgasms. So there’s no irony. It’s about as ironic as saying that people don’t want to go to work on Monday but get upset if they get fired on Friday. The variables used aren’t actually related directly.

You can use your body to attract people, but you don't have to give up your personhood to do so.

Not every man or woman thinks like that. I find it best never to make assumptions about someone's intentions, and instead just asking them about their views and opinions. I don't think anyone is immune to hypocrisy, and it works best to just talk and figure things out together.
