User:Zugzwang24/Male gaze

Hello Zugzwang24,

You did a good job with your additional paragraph. One thing to look out for, the information given might be received as a personal belief rather than known facts, I'm not too sure how others will perceive the tone of the paragraph.

Additionally, for the last three facts, I'd get rid of the "that of" before each statement so it will be easier to read. Overall, the paragraph was engaging and fit the male gaze article.

In feminist theory, the male gaze is the act of depicting women and the world, in the visual arts and in literature, from a masculine, heterosexual perspective that presents and represents women as sexual objects for the pleasure of the heterosexual male viewer. It is form of depicting and interpreting women that empowers males while sexualizing and devaluing women. Male gaze was initially used to refer towards how female characters in movies were portrayed as submissive, frequently blatantly sexualized subjects of male desire. Women are presented aesthetically as the "object" of heterosexual male desire in the male gaze. In the visual and aesthetic presentations of narrative cinema, the male gaze has three perspectives: (i) that of the man behind the camera, (ii) that of the male characters within the film's cinematic representations; and (iii) that of the spectator gazing at the image.
