She is not the gazed upon, she is the gazer.
The existentialist philosopher (Jean-Paul Sartre) introduced the concept of the "gaze", where the act of gazing at another produces a subjective difference in power. Since then, "gaze" theories have sprung up - male gaze, female gaze, matrix gaze, oppositional gaze, imperial gaze, white gaze ...... The "gaze" theories are appearing one after another.
"We haven't heard enough, if anything, about the female gaze. About the anxiety of it." - Marge Nielsen
