    That’s actually something the article talks about. According to the article, assuming women have that “gaze” because men do is the core of the misunderstanding.

        Yep, it’s pretty weird to go from “women generally want different things” to pretending women don’t find some people visually attractive. They were trying to frame the male gaze as a symptom of the patriarchy but not doing a great job of it.
