[Rozzak]

Pretty trippy physical manifestation of the "male gaze". Think about the uncomfortable results this invention would produce if worn around male teachers, your dad, granddad, etc. Totally shatter her worldview.

 

[huntercheco]

She didn't stop to think that it could work from a female lewd gaze too 😏

 

[Fedelolo]

We were the pervs all along!!

 

[Oeconomist]

The whole “male gaze” thing grew out of a more general theory of the “gaze” developed by the existentialists, and in the final analysis it (like the rest of existentialism) is more neurosis than reasoned thought. Any ordinary person can understand a wish not to be treated as a spectacle if one is not doing anything spectacular, but the demand to control perceptions more generally is inhumane madness.

 

[SafetyShark]

Damn, so that's it for a while. Guess I'll see ya'll whenever Volume 9 is published.

 

[radstylix]

It was us the readers lewding her all along! Whaaat a twwist!

 

[starburst98]

I bet it was reacting to her own lewd thoughts. She seems to think people are being lewd more than they actually are lewd.

 

[Tcof]

What happen to the dark-star view under the skirt thing ?

@Oeconomist Why does every comment of yours read like a philosophy undergrad who's desperately failing to impress the first girl they've talked to all year? It's just a gag manga, bud. Nobody wants to see you smelling your own shit here. Use the thesaurus for something more productive.

@mommunism—

I'm not trying to impress anyone. Another commentator noted the relationship to the idea of the male gaze, and I thought it worth noting whence that idea came and what were wrong with it. (The idea not only has social currency, but is used to oppress by those who imagine themselves as fighting oppression.)

I wonder which words you imagined were drawn from a thesaurus. In any case, I wouldn't bother with one when commenting to MangaDex, and more generally find them pretty useless.

(I hate to disappoint you, but

Spoiler

I've actually been published is a respected academic journal of philosophy though I didn't major in philosophy as an undergraduate nor as a graduate.

But my guess has been that this won't ever be helpful in attracting the female gaze.)

Minamine for the aesthetics
Kitanaga for the chill personality

@Oeconomist I know plenty of undergrads who have published papers. It's not some grand accomplishment, and the fact that you would jump on a barely related opportunity to brag about it only further proves my point about you being nothing more than a pompous pseudointellectual. Everyone knows your type. Too autistic to keep anyone interested, but you'll just blame your lack of friends on them "not understanding your intellect" or some other bullshit. It's no wonder you took the thesaurus comment literally. I won't waste more time on you.

@mommunism—

That wasn't jumping an opportunity to brag; that was responding to your attempt to impugn not only my motive for commenting but my competence in doing so. (That was after, your purpose in comparing me to “a philosophy undergrad”.) You're continuing on that score, so I'll respond by noting that

Spoiler

very few philosophy undergraduates publish in a journal of the calibre that I did, nor work that is both heterodox and foundational.

You merely conjecture my type, and hope that I will be hurt by that conjecture. Contrary to your hostile desires, I don't lack for friends, or even for the female gaze; though, again, I don't think that competence as a philosopher plays much of a rôle.

Certainly you have been wasting time.

@Rozzak "male gaze"? and here I thought that it was one of the girls mirin the captain's thicc booty

 

[kenkagejack]

Hmm, it's like she's being groped remotely.

 

[SteveJust]

She put up signs marked "No Panties" with images of panties with a bar crossed through them in the hopes of gathering less attention. It's safe to say she's not 100% all there in the head.
