But pioneering activist, biologist, and trans woman Julia Serano argues that sexualization is a far more pervasive problem, as it's something that we all do to other people, often without being aware of it. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhy do we perceive men as sexual predators and women as sexual objects? Why are LGBTQ+ people stereotyped as being sexually indiscriminate and deceptive? Why are people of color still being hypersexualized? These stereotypes push minorities farther into the margins, and even the privileged are policed from transgressing, lest they also become targets. Many view sexualization as a mere component of sexism, racism, or queerphobia, but Serano argues that liberation from sexual violence comes through collectively confronting sexualization itself. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJulia Serano\u003c\/b\u003e  is the author of four books, including the acclaimed modern classic \u003ci\u003eWhipping Girl\u003c\/i\u003e. Her writing has been published in the \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e,  the \u003ci\u003eGuardian\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003e TIME\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003e Salon\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eMs.\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eBitch\u003c\/i\u003e. Serano holds a PhD in biochemistry from Columbia University.
