‘Defying the masculinist gaze’ by David William Foster is not one of my main sources but it does raises some helpful points. The article talks about the masculine gaze which has been helpful for my research for my second chapter. Foster discuss the gaze and patriarchy. This lets onto to him discussing how women are seen as being available for men through their gaze. He raises a point that not all men see through a male gaze, but some women do. They do so out of obligation to the patriarchy, their unwitting participation in this obligation.
