Exploring theory behind the male gaze.
"Film has been called an instrument of the male gaze, producing representations of women, the good life, and sexual fantasy from a male point of view". - Jonathon Schroedar 1998
After discussing the male gaze theory with women and men, I believe that the "Female Gaze", although present in film, is often overlooked. Women identify similar things as an audience that men do in film, such as visual stimulus concerning their sexual orientation, and exploration of their fantasy displayed on screen, although this is less common as film rarely caters to the "Female Gaze". As society changes and women are seen as equally sexual beings as men, male gaze blurs.
