Lacan
Anxious
state that comes with the awareness that one can be
viewed.
The
subject loses a degree of autonomy upon realizing that he or she is a visible
object.
People
modify their
behaviour
under the belief that they are constantly being watched even if they cannot directly see who or what is watching them. Slide4

Second-Wave Feminism
The Male Gaze
The male gaze may be seen by a feminist either as a manifestation of unequal power between gazer and gazed, or as a conscious or subconscious attempt to develop that inequality.Slide5
Male Gaze
A woman
who welcomes an objectifying gaze may be simply conforming to norms established to benefit men, thereby reinforcing the power of the gaze to reduce a recipient to an object. Welcoming such objectification may be viewed as akin to
exhibitionism.Slide6Slide7Slide8
