Yeah, I did leave that hanging didn't I? Mainly because I was up for 30+ hours to meet the deadline. XD
It is however a very important question. I think it provides a space for subversion for the gaze because of a reversal of gender roles but it does not totally contradict or erase it completely.
I mean for instance, the nature of the gaze is quite different. Whereas a male gaze would desire a female body represented, desire for the male body may or may not be the case in the gaze of the female.
Thank you for your comment! I'll be sure to address this in the revision.
