and there's no scene where John Wick gets a lap dance. There are women who appear to be sex workers, and John Wick murders their bosses. The audience isn't invited to participate in the objectification,

I do not agree that paying a woman for a lap dance is objectification if sex work is real work and should be respected. If sex work is bad and shouldn't be respected then sure, that'd be a bad thing to pay for, but it can't be both.

Wrong person, that was someone else that said that

Right, then I responded to them, then you responded to me responding to them, and now we're here. You said it's missing part of the argument but it is the argument you jumped into, so "nuh uh" is what I'm saying.

OK but your "nuh uh" didn't address anything I added to the conversation.

Sex work good

Treating all women as just sex objects bad

In the video game, are all women just eye candy/sex appeal/sex workers?

Or do the game devs know that women have more to offer than sex and show that?

You're reducing the argument to one action, lap dances. But the argument is about the overall attitude towards women.

Wait you think the only women in the entire game are in this one strip club?
