"Bikini-girl" Disrespects All Girls

I understand that "Bikini-girl" is what our society labels as "hot". In a barely-there bikini, men and women probably have fantasies of stripping her naked and having sex with her right on that American Idol stage. I understand that she is beautiful. But she's not Bathsheba, innocently bathing in the moonlight, unaware that King David is admiring her naked beauty. Instead, "Bikini-girl" is flaunting her body and her sexuality--allowing people to drool over her and imagine her naked in their beds. Most women and men stared at her, their mouths gaped open, as she pranced around the stage and then gave Ryan Seacrest a kiss.  Obviously, she cannot sing for her life. And so she uses her body as an object of attention--an asset that will allow acceptance into the hearts, or rather beds, of men who can elevate her status. She is objectifying herself, degrading her body, beauty, and sexuality. She has put her body on display, as a source of visual pleasure to those who gaze upon it. And this hurts women who are fighting against society, fighting for the right to be respected. In her pursuit for glory and fame, she is making life worse for most other women in the world. We are fighting a losing battle if we are not of one mind and spirit, especially when one of us disbands and follows the path of greed.
 Unconsciously, she is sabotaging everything that feminists have done since the suffrage movement.
