The "Male Gaze"

We're still in the time period where male gaze has caused us to understand what is wrong in certain art. In films, photos, essays, and even other forms of captured art. How? It is caused by the creation by male artist or woman artists who do it through lusting over woman or not realizing that lust is powering it. These pieces of art causes women models to be objects to be owned. Which is why women in modeling get paid more than men. It's the perspective that most modeling is actually promotion. Some may see it as the promotion of the female body, which modeling is actually the sharing of an idea or image. Even in acting , the image or idea of a person is what causes us to want to be different or similar to others. Even if you are against Media, what is on media makes you want to do differently. Therefore it still controls your actions.

An example of this is in the Night of the Living Dead. Where a woman is betrayed as an horrific zombie. The image is that when dead hair goes black, and skin is bleached. Or that women are "defenseless" and wll always scream the loudest. It creates the image of what we think of every zombie movie. Terror!!!!!!Did a kid create this image no. Usually directors are men who have a knack to control things. Sometimes in a very respectful way, and others see a film through a males gaze!
