The Male Gaze at Work

The male gaze is a concept that describes how women are often viewed and judged based on male perspectives.

This idea, first talked about by a feminist film theorist named Laura Mulvey, still affects women in the workplace today.

More than 30 years ago, author Margaret Atwood wrote about this in her book The Robber Bride.

Even though there have been improvements in gender equality, many women still feel the pressure of being watched and judged in a way that can hold them back in their careers.

This can make it harder for women to move up in their jobs and feel confident in their work environments.
