Laura Mulvey | Male Gaze

Laura Mulvey takes the female side of media and talks of the 'Male Gaze' made by the representation of women in music videos.

She claims the drama is always positioned in a way it can portray a heterosexual man's perspective of the scene to objectify women.


She also believes women can only be portrayed one of two ways, either a 'virginal innocent' or a 'sexy whore' in terms of  how they are displayed on screen. This is the Virgin/whore Dichotomy
