    Does Summer = Sexualization???

    In this mini solo episode, Dakota explores the way sexualization changes with physical context, leaving women to compensate to create their own safety. As the weather warms, uniforms and patterns change, but why does the temperature outside dictate our feelings of safety rather than just our physical comfort? Why are we constantly conscious of what we’re wearing? Why do we only feel safe when we cater our bodies to certain environments? Why do we as women hold the responsibility of lessening ourselves as targets when we aren’t the problem?
