Male Gaze

The concept of Gaze is one that deals with how an audience views the people presented.

from a feminist perspective, you can be seen in three ways -
  • How men look at women
  • How women look at themselves
  • How women look at other women
 How are women viewed in music videos?
  • In an R&B video, women are seen as sexual objects viewed by men. They can be dressed provocatiely so men are drawn to them. However, other women might see them as 'slutty' due to the way they dress and their behaviour to men in the music videos. Some women may feel happy with themselves in the way they have dressed and are behaving however other women may feel too underdressed.
