Depiction of girls and women as sexual objects for the pleasure of a male, heterosexual viewer
POPULARITY
I've been circling this topic for years in my personal life, and today I'm finally ready to name it out loud: what it means to center men—and the quiet, persistent ways it costs us. This isn't a takedown of men. It's a conversation about the water we swim in, how it shapes our choices, and why so many of us end up orbiting someone else's needs while abandoning our own. In this first of a two-part series, I briefly unpack the language and the lived reality—androcentrism, “woman as Other,” the male gaze, compulsory heterosexuality, and self-silencing—and connect those ideas to everyday moments in dating, marriage, work, family roles, and even how we present ourselves. I also go deeper into patriarchal bargains,something I see over and over in my own life, the lives of my clients, and most (if not all) of the women I know. I weave in my own story and experiences from clients and friends so you can spot the pattern with compassion, not self-blame. This is what you'll hear in this episode: A clear metaphor for “centering men” (the sun and orbit) and how it shows up in real life. Plain-language definitions of key terms (androcentrism, male gaze, “woman as Other,” patriarchal bargains, comphet, self-silencing). Why patriarchal bargains often feel like safety—and why the price tag grows over time. Everyday examples across dating, long-term partnership, work, family labor, and appearance. The emotional, relational, and cultural costs: confusion of identity, chronic anxiety, resentment, power imbalances, and internalized policing. How health can be impacted when self-silencing becomes a lifestyle (and why this deserves reverence, not shame). A gentle invitation to notice where you might be orbiting—and what questions to journal on before we move into solutions. Part one names the pattern and its costs so you can see it with clarity and care in your own life: centering men isn't a personal failing—it's a survival strategy many of us learned. Awareness is the first move. In part two (in two weeks), we'll focus on solutions: how to decenter without burning your life down, rebuild self-trust and voice, and practice relational autonomy in dating, work, and partnership.

The idea of using our sexuality, as lesbians, for the male "gaze" is no longer something we can stand behind - and in this episode we talk about our "graduation" process through understanding that the only person we need acceptance from is ourselves. When you can truly live a life for you - and let go of society's expectations - you'll fall in love with yourself all over again.

JoséI am sitting on the cracked, faux black leather couch in a white beam of LED light. Underneath the sparkling sheath of my green-blue dress is my matching tangerine orange underwear set. José is crouched on his knees on the floor in front of me.I notice the way he sees me. His drunken eyes double-take as I open my legs. I look down over the lip of my dress and back up into his brown eyes, teasing. I want to control him. It's like I've made up a game with my own body. I will spruce up these used goods. Put the fruit back on the shelf at the supermarket, nice and ripe again.I touch myself over my underwear as I look up at him. I am putting on a show for him. I quite like it. I feel powerful, in control. I notice the grey hairs in the scruff of his beard as he sips his beer. He leans in closer, tasting me with his nose.When we are f*****g in his room, the breath is forced out of my lungs by the weight of his body and his protruding belly. He has cute brown moles on his face, deep brown eyes, and a wicked smile. Eight years older than me. He comes quickly. I feel dainty, young, fresh.José drives me home at 3 in the morning. In his car, I hug my knees, my orange underwear back on but readjusted and slightly twisted. He winks at me, and I pause for a moment. I wonder. We can both look at my body, but perhaps we see very different things. How does he see me? As some kind of walking beauty? Humanly imperfect yet highly f******e?Come back for more

=== SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT === Women go around constantly worried about being 'slut shamed'. I mean, it's one thing to be genuinely slutty. But too many of us as men shame women simply for being sexual creatures. It should go without saying that's counterproductive if we're trying to have a thriving sex life. But it's not like we as men are the only ones going around shaming MOTOS (members of the other sex). As it turns out, women have their own equivalent of 'slut shaming' that they go around weaponizing against us as men. And sure enough, most of us will go out of our way to not be accused of it. Well, as soon as I utter the simple phrase in this show, you'll cringe. But rest assured, just like there's a simple solution for avoiding slut shaming women, there's an equally simple solution for not BEING shamed by man-hating women out there.

Lisa Harding's stunning new book The Wildelings is set in a fictional university in Dublin. On Free State today, Lisa talks to us about her own time at Trinity in the 90s, when students would be rated on their looks. She talks to Dion about the male gaze and their shared experiences of drink and how when she became an actress she turned to tequila to take the edge off her anxiety. Hosted on Acast.

The short answer to the title's question is, Yes, totally. But it wasn't just about lusty glares. Jesus dared us to pluck out anything within us that objectifies or commodifies another. It's part of his most famous spiel, "the sermon on the mount," which is most clearly presented vision for how his followers should live. Not a set of rules to obey, but a trajectory of faithfulness to enter the flow of: one marked together by gentleness, fidelity, justice, and love. The kinds of things our economy and ruling powers abhor. For a show about antifascist readings of the Bible, there's a lot to dig into!Our guest cohost is Frances Cutshaw, D.Min. (she/they). Frances is the Founder and "Wilderness Abbess" of the Order of Hildegard, an unaffiliated community of practice which exists to center, celebrate and develop the interfaith cross-vocational spiritual leadership of those marginalized by traditional religious structures such as LGBTQIA+, BIPOC, people with disabilities and neurodiversities and those otherwise disillusioned with harmful, puritanical patriarchal religious structures. She recently completed her thesis "Shame as the Great Obstacle and Unexpected Invitation to Shalom."

How much in the Church is still, in 2025, coming to us through the male lens? Pretty much all of it. Our scriptures, doctrine, ward boundaries, curriculum, conference talks, local leadership, and decisions are almost entirely by and/or about men. A women's organization made and presided over by men is not really a women's organization, is it? How could men ever describe or define women—our roles, attributes, or experiences—not as they see us, but as we actually are? In Episode 220, Cynthia and Susan wrap the season of zooming-out conversations by examining how the male gaze continues to shape and distort women's religious experience.
#Metoo brachte nicht nur eine neue Diskussion über Machtverhältnisse und Ra*e Culture, sondern auch eine neue Sexpositivity Bewegung. In dieser Zeit ging es viel um "female pleasure". Frauen wurden ermutigt, ihre eigene Lust abseits vom "Male Gaze" zu entdecken und auszudrücken - und vor allem sollte man sich von der vom Patriarchat auferlegten Scham befreien. Egal welche Kinks, Vorlieben, Gelüste man hatte - es war okay. Außerdem gewann die Pro-Sexwork Bewegung Momentum - die vierte feministische Welle machte sich für die Legalisierung von Sexarbeit stark. Die Zeichen standen auf Choice Feminism - mach, was du willst. Wo stehen wir heute in diesen Fragen, wo einerseits ein neuer Konservatismus Einzug hält, auf der anderen Seite Plattformen wie Onlyfans Sexarbeit maßgeblich verändert haben? Es scheint, als ob der Kampf gegen den Male Gaze aufgegeben wurde. Statt gegen ihn aufzubegehren, wird er einfach internalisiert und das Ausleben von Machtfantasien beim Sex normalisiert. In dieser Folge denken wir darüber nach, was von dem Sexpositivity Diskurs heute noch übrig ist, was er übersehen hat und warum auch in diesen Fragen Kapitalismus der Endgegner ist. Hört rein.
In this wild episode of That Was Wild, Adam Macias and Bethany Michaels break down the unspoken truths of Hollywood and why the hustle feels more like a Mr. Beast hand-on-the-car challenge than a career trajectory. From putting your “hand on the car” and waiting for success to the harsh reality of grinding until your turn comes—Should one's hollywood dream be just a waiting game? .

Ja, die Zahl der leichtbekleideten Frauen auf Phantastik-Covern hat abgenommen und es gibt mehr Bücher mit weiblichen und queeren Hauptfiguren. Trotzdem hält sich der cis hetero männliche Blick als Standard hartnäckig, oft auch subtiler, als man glaubt. Zeit also, darüber zu sprechen, wo wir den Male Gaze auch heute noch als prägend wahrnehmen, und wo er gerade ein unschönes Comeback feiert. Im Medienthema: Das Wiederentdecken von Autorinnen der Vergangenheit.

Das brave Mädchen, die Mutti, das Opfer: sind das Rollen toxischer Weiblichkeit oder schützen sie uns vor patriarchaler Gewalt?
Dem männlichen Blick entsprechen wollen, ist das eine bewusste oder auch unterbewusste Entscheidung in einer patriarchal geprägten Gesellschaft? Kann man sich vom männlichen Blick (Male Gaze) lösen und wie sieht sein Gegenpart, also der Female Gaze aus? Es gibt für Steffi kaum eine bessere Person, um über den weiblichen Blick zu sprechen, als mit Freundin und Fotografin [Stephie Braun](https://www.instagram.com/stephie.braun/?hl=de). Wie hat sie ihren eigenen Blick und Stil gefunden, wie ist es für sie als Frau in einem männerdominierten Business und auch für Steffi, mit dem männlichen und weiblichen Blick, zu arbeiten und zu experimentieren.

Send me a message - text me! Have you ever heard the phrase “He's punching above his weight” and stopped to think about what it really means? It's often said as a joke, but underneath it lies a deeper issue—the idea that a woman's worth is defined by how she looks, while a man's worth is measured by his success, humour, or status.In this episode, we dive into the impact of the male gaze and the unrealistic pressures placed on women to be seen as ‘attractive enough.' We explore how these outdated ideas shape relationships, self-worth, and body image—and, most importantly, how we can start to break free from them.I'm talking about:✅ Why the phrase “He's punching” is more damaging than it seems✅ How media, dating culture, and social norms reinforce the male gaze✅ The emotional impact of feeling like you have to ‘maintain' your attractiveness✅ How to reclaim your body and self-worth from external validation✅ Ways to challenge and shut down these outdated ideas when you hear themAlso, there's an update on my coaching prices.

VIDEO DROPS TOMORROW. Kelsi and Trey deep dive into The Substance, a maximalist allegory that satirizes the media's obsession with women's bodies. With Demi Moore delivering a brilliant meta-performance, the film navigates the dark undercurrents of media exploitation and the commodification of women. We unpack the movie's subversive use of the male gaze, its critique of beauty standards, and the divisive discourse reminiscent to Scorsese's Wolf of Wall Street--both being films that indulge in the very spectacle they are critiquing.

Young, Hot, Horrible - Coralie Fargeat's The Substance November brings with it a return to the theaters as I venture into the multiplex (and Mr. Chavez grabs up a streaming subscription) for Coralie Fargeat's critically acclaimed attack on Womens' Aging in Tinsel Town, the Male Gaze, Vanity, with a Twilight Zone-like look at an industry that both makes stars and disposes of them in the most cruel and emotionless of ways. There's a whole lot to admire in Coralie Fargeat's sophomore effort, however how much of it is successful, and how much of it is obvious and labored, is what will drive this discussion.

Taking a decidedly hard left pivot to do a cultural deep dive into the new buzzy movie that everyone is talking about, The Substance starring Demi Moore, Margaret Qualley, Dennis Quaid, and co-produced, written and directed by Coralie Fargeat. Shockingly insane, it was like nothing I ever expected and I"m not sure if I recovered.But despite the terrifying visuals and sound design, the message was pretty relevant and thought-provoking.

When it comes to social movements, humans tend to swing from one extreme to another. Today we sit down with our good sis Adella Afadi to ask the question, have we gone too far with some of our responses to internet trends and conversations on the male gaze, being a ‘pick me' and recovering from people pleasing?
Abe Epperson wants to talk about the 2009's horror comedy where Megan Fox is a demon and preys upon high school boys. Written by Diablo Cody and directed by Karyn Kusama, this film smartly comments on the persistent male gaze that followed young actresses like Fox. Let's get in there and eat these kids.

This week Ciara decided to delve deep into the history of a term that has been floating around social media for awhile now. And by delve deep, we mean she found a few articles and decided to use that to strike up a conversation about something she knows nothing about. The male gaze was a term coined in the 1970s but we know it's actually been around for honestly, probably the beginning of time. Join us in getting mad and also inappropriate for the majority of this episode, and please come into it with an open mind and remember that we do not now and have not ever known anything.
