Manspreading and male gaze are cartoonish Sometimes, it's really not necessary to use a lot of words to explain the ridiculousness of certain feminist complaints.

Male Gaze complaints always remind me of when my daughter was a young child, yelling at her brother, "STOP LOOKING AT ME!"

The 'male gaze' concept was originally about how media was predominately shown, by default, from the male perspective. One example was that there are predominately male cameramen, so when you watch a news story you are seeing the images from a male perspective.

Personally I think the concept is flawed because professionals think about their audience and how best to convey the information/tell a story.

I'm a photographer and have had discussion about the impact of the gender on a photographer's work, and we basically concluded that individual styles are much more different than any style differences between genders.
