   In addition to degrading and objectifying women, posing naked may actually be counterproductive to supporting women’s rights. Those opposing equality for women, will just point to the naked women and argue to the parents of the nation that it is their traditional values that prevent their daughters from being degraded and objectified as women, this will be a powerful argument because most parents do not want to see their daughters posing naked.
