Battle of the Bods

I was watching a reality game tv show called Battle of the Bods. This game show consist of 5 women competing based on their outter appearance such as their facial features and body. They wear bathing suits and lingerie while 3 men hidden behind a one way mirror judge them and put them in order from hottest to least hottest. Theses women then have to put eachother in order to what they think the men would order them as. The more they get in correct order the more money they win. I think this show is degrading to women. They have to judge themselves and others to what a man would want. Some women are really hurt by being last place. I think the show is just another example of stereotyping women by looks and gives many young girl viewers the wrong impression. The women do however get their revenge at the end and get to put the men in order based on their bodys.
I think gender and sex is related way too much to the body type and is rated too much on how "sexy" or good looking a person is.
