Marianne is the female embodiment of the French Republic (France since Napoleon) It's an old thing, and I think it's cool. The logo sucks big time though.
Looks like the olay soap logo.
Doesn't look like objectification, but it does look like bad design!

Now that's Hawt!
How can you not like a picture of a flame with a Charley Chaplain mustache in it??
I'm pretty sure that feminist chick would find any logo featuring a female offensive.
How awful must she be to date? I stalked her on LinkedIn and she's actually not hideous. Notwithstanding, for the good of human genetics, hopefully no male is dumb enough to put up with her sh*t.
re -does it objectify women.
Not enough. I can feel no reaction, when i look at the logo with a sincere desire to objectify a moving woman.
Probably she's just not my type. Better luck next time.
The Eiffel Tower logo was the candidature logo hence the reference to 24. It was also too 'Parisian'. Yes the games are Paris 2024 but they showcase France from a broader perspective. Everyone is talking about the new logo - I believe they are achieving their goals.
I could draw a picture of me spanking a goat and if that was an Olympic logo everyone would be talking about it but that wouldn't mean it was a good logo. I think it looks fukking stupid.

I want to see a logo with Bekele on it. I wonder will he be interested in running the marathon there. 10th anniversary of his epic debut there where he still has the course record. I don't find the current logo very cute. Society has gone full retard.
I don’t understand? It’s just a rubbish logo where is the woman?
Rojo is triggered, outraged, then comes here for his validation
Yes, I think it sexually objectifies women, and I thought that the moment I saw it, before I heard anyone else suggest it (but also before I knew about "Marianne" in French culture, which makes it a little more understandable). The shape of the lips and the focus on them makes it read as an intentionally sexy woman, and how does that represent the Olympics?
At first, I saw the flame. Then, after being told it looked like Jennifer Anniston, I saw a woman. Then, I noticed the woman had no eyes. I think the logo has a lot of accurate symbolism.
The flame symbolizes the Olympics.
The woman with sexy lips symbolizes France's tendency to overtly sexualize almost anything.
The lack of eyes symbolizes blindness in France's slow destruction of their nation by its growing Moslem culture and growing socialist movement.
Took me awhile to see the the logo as a women’s hair and lips and a blank face flame. Looked better before I knew it was a circular haired lady.
It's a bad logo.
It reminds me of a French Prostitute with webbed feet.
It doesn’t matter what the image looks like. Activists, generally, will subvert anything to use as a vehicle for their cause. The more high profile the better, and there are few things higher in profile than the Olympics. Activists for feminism can be some of the worst in this regard.
The shape of the face is too broad. Ideally, it would resemble a reversed egg (tapering along lower face).

France had a socialist president for most of the 80s and 90s, so I don't know what this "growing socialist movement" is. At least you prefaced it by making it known you're a bigot - so when you say something that is stupid right after that, we already know you're a stupid jerk.
