I totally disagree. I think both men and women should embrace and define their sexuality on their own terms (including the ways in which they wish to be objectified). Which is what I think Kim does (including in songs like "Halloween" and "Panty Lies" that mock the very type of sexuality that they invoke at the same time).
Certainly, allowing yourself to be objectified entirely on society and the media's terms leads to train wrecks like Britney Spears. However, Poison Ivy and Eartha Kitt come immediately to my mind as examples of highly empowered women who certainly enjoyed using their objectification as a weapon.
