Bones: The Girl in Suite 2103

Watch about 13 minutes in. Notice how the camera follows a woman's butt as she walks. There's no other visual for focus.
This is a show with a strong female lead who is extremely intelligent.
It's a wonder that people continue to treat women as sexual objects. Subliminal visual images are powerful. Without a word, teaching viewers that it is acceptable to just stare at a person as an object for a prolonged amount of time.
Sure, it's okay. She was paid for that strut. Probably fought for the opportunity.
But the director had an opportunity to shoot humans as equals.
Hard to market that.
Just an observation.
