Forgetting Sarah Marshall
Forgetting Sarah Marshall is a movie which has a lot of references to gender in it. In one part Sarah's new boyfriend smacks her butt and calls her a "sex puppet". This is stereotypical of some men because some men view women as only good for sex. The fact that he called her a "object" is important too. This is demeaning and it dehumanizes her. He doesn't even refer to her as a lady or a person. Just an "object". This statement sadly reflects the views of a lot of men who view women as not having actual feelings, but instead only being good for sex and viewing pleasure.
