Bring this to attentions - walking this line of inclusivity and holding it to account. Roxanne gay"s original piece: picking and choosing certain things. Distinction between a bad feminist and then a bad feminist who perpetuates marginalization. Cultural theory and texts and visual elements don"t just exist, we are always engaging with these pieces and texts but through the interaction that occurs through the text and person who is reading it. Laura mulvey: theorized that looking at old hollywood films they were shot from a male audience member (straight). Way they were shot in these films direct the audience to look at them in a particular way that objectify women in the way a male gaze would.
