The internalized male gaze is the act of depicting women in f.ex. movies and literature by hetero sexual men. Every woman is influenced by it everyday, because they have this male voyeurism inside their mind. Since the rise of kinks ( everything can be a kink/ many kinks are normalized) and the oversexualization of woman, thereâs no space which isnât influenced by it. Everything a woman does could cater a male viewer, which is in the basic form, what society to this day forces on women. This whole process is for the majority more on a subconscious level.
The line between the free will and the internalized male gaze is fluent and many woman canât tell the difference anymore between âwhat do I like?â And âwhat attracts men?â, because itâs been taught to them through movies, through their parents and the media that they should please men.
The way hollywood is showing Megan fox fixing a car in the transformer movie is a prime example of the internalized male gaze, since she canât even repair a car without being sexualized.
