That logic goes far beyond the level of whiny feminists. Sure those girls are only their for entertainment purposes by being eyecandy. But they get paid rather well and in darts even gain some fame. Just because someone likes to look at walk on girls doesn't mean he only sees women as sex objects, but again that line of thought is not possible for people who think this is a major issue.

I don't even get why that's an issue anyway. "there's more to a person that just the way they look" sure, but I couldn't give a fuck about people's life story in other job and only judge them on how well they perform said job, why should that be different if their job is looking good? I mean, when you hire a lawyer you only care about whether they're a good lawyer, no? So what's wrong with only caring about whether a model is a good model?

Nothing at all. It's only when girls are in all forms of media and sports projected as sexobjects this could become an issue, since it will change the way some men see women. But to do that there is an awful lot more necessary than a simple walk on act.
