Yes, but like all gaze attacks it allows a fairly easy dexterity saving throw to negate.

Baldur's Gate taught me that the best defense against a gaze is to distract the gazer with your hideous ghoul friend.

The male Gaze refers to forced perspective, like in film, where the camera travels and focuses on things in the way that the eyes of a person who was sexually attracted to women would. It might apply to, like, a cut scene, but forced perspective in video games is rare, and that twitter fuckwit doesn't even know the most basic poo poo which is p. insulting to a male lesbian like myself.

It's not about having attractive lady things that exist, it's about how these things are presented. Like, if you were trying to take cover to shoot soime Blastoids or w/e, but the camera was stuck looking at a cartoon butt all the time, that would be the "male gaze" not, a lady is dressed up in sex ways. JFC you need to take a class or somtehing ur way ignorant of lady issues!!

e: i'm sorry for going off like that, I've become kinda sensitive about this stuff recently, but its about perspective, not content. what the eye perceives, not what exists.

Just look at this sexy hunk of a man.

That man was clearly written by the artist to be objectified by and for the straight female gaze. Have some dignity.

What if a camera does that but in a way that people who are attracted to men would find attractive? Do they call it the female gaze?

I can sympathize. The movies and TV taught me that massacres are okay as long as it's for a good cause, but for some reason the police keep disagreeing with me.
