Nothing cures a bad day like using a racial slur, especially combined with watching people react to videos of you merely looking at a camera. Better than trying some meditation or talking to a friend to get cheered up. But what can expect from a racist narcissist who doesn't even understand the basic meaning of the sociological concept he has butchered to create content (the male gaze and the female gaze, which he literally thinks means how men and women look at one another) or that fantastic Edgar Allen Poe comment?
He's barely even lip-syncing to the audio most of the time...or moving his mouth at all, just staring blankly into your soul The live stream reaction portion gave me genuine whiplash because as confusing and simultaneously boring as he is, I genuinely thought he couldn't make more than one expression!
i love how a lot of girls were like "nobody can do it like him" like miss girly im sure you can find TONS of misogynistic, balding people with anger issues
there is no way that the entirety of a tiktok community concluded that the new standard of the female gaze is just some dude who look like somebody tried to draw kurtis connor from memory.
Especially applying it to a man creating it lol the female gaze comes from women, women cultivate the female gaze, not the other way around. He can try and perform for it, but he’s definitely not going to be the person to invent it EDIT: AND DEF NOT WHEN HE TALKS ABOUT (specifically black) WOMEN LIKE HE DID!! He’s just another egotistical man gassed up by women praising him
Right?! And if it would then what, female gaze = looking awkward but being able to switch to confident in an instant? I do not understand where this came from xD
Going into this I assumed it was "female gaze" as in "this guy looks kinda nonthreatening and that makes him cute" but 10 minutes in I can't imagine what it could possibly mean aside from "this guy's looking at me like he calls women 'females'"
Narcissistic injury. He doesn't understand the concept of male gaze/female gaze as a cultural response, yet uses the term anyway because he thinks it just means "how men and women look at each other". He is also racist, didn't get the awesome Edgar Allen Poe joke and literally spent time live-streaming himself watching people react to his face, like a modern version of the tale of Narcissus except that Narcissus had actual depth to his character whereas this guy is just a narcissistic, racist bellend. The woman was perfectly polite but with all the points mentioned before considered, how could we expect him to be reasonable? Also, I don't understand how this became so popular? These are just videos of him fumbling in front of a camera and then pulling a kind of smirk. Then again, from what I've seen of TikTok, not much creative though seems to go into what is produced (I've never been on there to be fair, and don't plan to either - these commentary videos show me enough to want to stay away).
@@WonderfulArgos there was some drama around him because he watched a girl self harm. Then he admitted to having mutilation(?) Kink so i think thats why he fleed social media
This is like when Tumblr thought color theory was the same thing as what emotion you feel when you look at a color, well it's not! -me, a frustrated artist
@@kai_maceration Yeah except at least Tumblr is basically invisible to the rest of the internet. Tiktok is like the face of it now, so if anything gets popular, everyone knows about it. Leading to mass misinformation
It's not even that he isn't attractive, it's that he's trying to come across as confident and a "idgaf" attitude when he's obviously incredibly insecure lmao
@@Candyrock15 ok that's too far he can't help that like sure his tik toks are cringe but like c'mon don't rip on his appearance its ok to make fun of his behaviour because thats his choice and its objectively cringe but making fun of his looks is different
@@tyleralan1470 nah, he deserves it. He made fun of other people’s appearances so it’s only fair to say he looks like an insecure incel that never gets out of the house
Jarvis who very rarely ever gets upset or angry on camera saying 'oh fuck off' in that tone made me sit up straight. defending that woman who did absolutely nothing wrong against a racist bully was maybe bare minimum but still really nice to hear amongst all the shitty things on the internet today.
That's what I thought too. I was like....if you want someone to look at you like this just get an attentive stoner. Get them really high and they will look at you exactly like that the whole time. Lol.
The fact that the definition of the female gaze is about what female creatives can bring to their work separate from the male eye, but it's been turned into 'this man has cracked the woman code and now all women find him hot' speaks numbers
I think this all starts with, like, people taking male gaze (= misogyny produces movies that turn women into something to be consumed by The Male Gaze) and turned it into ✨ Male Gaze ✨ = woman sexy in movie, so then, when creatives and thinkers actually try to come up with a term for works that seek to portray the subjects as all human and not as a set of Men and their Playthings, naming it The Female Gaze in opposition to the original male gaze, the crowds immediately latch onto the easiest definition which is "When Man attractive to Woman"
@@Sir-Taco People have misunderstood more complex film concepts/feminist critique of film (movies are made by men for men, the inherent misogyny in our culture results in a diminished and stylised representation of women as objects or an accessory to men)...so in this instance that's been boiled down to "this is what men find hot" conversely they've wrongly assumed the female gaze is the opposite and "this is what women find hot" and that's just not what those terms mean.
@@Sir-Taco I'm no expert on this but Maggie Mae Fish gave an example that resonated with me in Silence of the Lambs. Normally in film you'd see a woman as beautiful as Foster walking into that room she'd be the object 'cos she's a beautiful women, let's move the camera up and down her while the men (all the police officers in the funeral parlor) leer at her and the men in the room would be in on it as would the audience, there's no judgement of that and no empathy for her. Instead, we see her entering through the door from her perspective. For once it isn't Jodie Foster being stared at...the camera is her looking at the men all gawking at her and it diminishes them. You can see that they're either leering at her like pigs or are uncomfortable "why womz in FBI?". It doesn't glamourise her objectification or her strangeness or her opposition to the male and even more importantly it doesn't glamourise them. We saw what it was like from her perspective to be diminished by a bunch of creeps and sexist jerks and the end view was that they were in the wrong for that. It impacted me heavily at the time I was still a kid and I didn't know why but that's what it was. For once they were made to look bad for doing what most films do all the time to women. Enable misogyny and male primacy.
Right? When I saw his "tutorial" vid, I just know that he thinks highly of himself before the trend. And when people blindly succumbed to this madness, it inflated his ego. 🤮
I even think it’s bad to exalt people who are actually doing good, big things because it ruins everyone. It gets to everyone’s head and they really lose touch.
"The male gaze" and "the female gaze" refers to filmmaking techniques and other art-- the male gaze shows women whose bodies are pointed towards the camera in a way that would not be their natural posture, who are shot in sections of their bodies rather than focusing on their faces. It's about presenting the female body through the eyes of the spectator, the audience, who is presumed to be a man who is attracted to these women. The "female gaze" would be the opposite of that, a theoretical portrayal of women through the eyes of a female spectator. Language is fluid and I don't think it always only has to refer to cinematography, but a dude filming intentionally awkward thirst traps for women is not "the female gaze." That makes no sense. The male gaze is not just what men are attracted to, and the female gaze is not just what women are attracted to.
I think qoves studio has detailed videos with a concrete scientific perspective on male and female gaze. The logic behind it lies in evolutionary psychology.
I agree about the term but disagree about what this guy did not being the female gaze. In film the actress & crew are told to act/move/ shoot them in them through the male gaze" which is supposed to be what men find most attractive. Here he is acting/moving/shooting himself in the "female gaze" in a way supposed to be more attractive to most women. Of course the 2 are not equal & most of thr discussions around the male gaze is negative. It often focuses in the predatory aspect & reducing a woman down to eye candy, where as this guy adds more depth to the focus character through his female gaze lense. However I I think he does a good job at highlighting the differences between what a lot of alpha males think women find attractive, compared to what a lot of women actually find attractive... Now the same could be said for the female gaze too, with diffeeent archytypes & tropes appealing to different men but I'm not gonna rehash old ground & this comment is probably already long enough!
@@NotAnotherKuromi i dont think either male or female gaze has predatory aspects. Its just the way people percieve it. Its weird that male gaze has become a synonym for creeping while science based channels explain them easily with the help of evolutionary psychology. Its no wonder that feminists are crying all over the video even though it has a neutral to positive stance on both male and female gaze.
Thank you SO MUCH for bringing his racist jabs towards black women to light! I felt like I was in the freaking twilight zone for a bit on TikTok with people swooning over an entitled butthole that rants and makes fun of genetic features on people that don't find what he does attractive 😅.
He looks like those hyper awkward guys that “space out” looking at your ass. And then genuinely try to bs you that they just accidentally zoned out there.
He doesn't even do what they're raving about tbh... when he spaces out and gets "confident", everyone says omg hes tongue tied and fantasizing about me. No he looks like a huge douchebag.. and does not look like hes lucky to have you... he looks like "omg gurl yer bewbies r so huge.. i get bonar now".
as a queer (trans) man, WE DO NOT CLAIM HIM. I do not know how someone could not understand how making fun of someone's ethnic features is inherently wrong and harmful, especially when that person is part of a marginalized group.
As the same, saying we don't claim this obvious loser does more harm than good. His identity doesn't matter; this guy sucks, and everyone can agree with that. No need to resort to tribalism.
Jarvis getting legitimately upset at the degradation of black women is exceedingly closer to capturing the female gaze than Kevin and his pathetic attempt to seem humble and approachable. I thought the Kevin thing was overblown on tiktok, but man those lives really sent me over the edge
I feel like I have seen 100 creepy dudes do those same looks on TikTok. EVERY TIME me and everyone I heard/known thinks it's creepy. Its a shallow way to look like a you are trying to look "sexy." But somehow when this guy does it people are saying it's sexy. I feel like it's this weird mental thing where the supposed context or labels change how you feel, not the actual content. Also, it's weird that this is the female gaze. It isn't exploitative or demeaning in any way. You just look at a camera and bite your lip. Sure, people find it weird, but finding it weird isn't what they are talking about correct? When you look at the male gaze in media it is explicitly demeaning. Only hiring hot "chicks" because they are hotter, making your looks your value. Writing in those woman without any character or nuance. Making them be primarily a secondary position that needs saving, or is treated like an object or trophy. Like a possession. Or practically enforcing that successful woman HAVE to be good looking. That is what the male gaze was. It's gotten better sure, I hope. All of that was only possible in the first place was because men were, and still are, in power. The female gaze, what is it? Looking at people? Huh... After watching more of this video, I'm not even going to continue. Both "gazes" are not even close to be comparable. This topic will die soon, probably...
Sometimes it's fun to hype up a conventionally unattractive person. Sometimes you can be unattractive but there genuinely is some quality about how you carry yourself that makes you attractive. The fun gets sucked out of it when the target turns out to suck but it's totally a thing I understand. I've gotten comments about my partner of 11 years being super unattractive in pictures but then they meet him in person and they're like oh I get it. Appeal is mysterious.
@@murdermyinsanity i don't like to judge a book by its cover but to me he looks on the outside exactly like he turned out to be on the inside (also what am i saying i judge every actual book by its cover)
@@murdermyinsanity there’s no fun about it. firstly, all i know is he has made videos sexualizing beating and raping women, so that’s all i have to know. secondly, im going to touch on a subject jarvis slightly mad run the video. it’s 100% “fun” to you because your white. the black woman subject is really more nuanced, white women set the beauty standards for both women and men worldwide, and that’s a fact. they have set the “female gaze”, and it’s weird, because it’s not something no other race, not just black people, appeal to. especially because the “gaze” fits white, skinny men with brown fully hair. something that isn’t seen as features apart of other races. a man, especially one with a platform like jarvis, using his voice to defend black woman is just nice to see. it’s because most black men die to internalized racism say the most disgusting shit about black women simply to uplift white women.
I wanna scream whenever people don't understand that the male gaze is specifically a term to critique misogynistic filmmaking. The distinction matters because now we have people who think that real life women need to be criticized for "appealing to the male gaze," i.e. choosing to look hot to attract men, which is literally not a problem.
@@amani98001 girls: *have an opinion* Kevin: *races to Google images to attempt to halfass a roast about their looks* the chat: "oh Kevinnnnn 😭😭😭😭😭😭" bro was acting 15 to defend himself
Even the girl who said he has sanpaku eyes wasn't making fun of his appearance, she was just pointing out what women were reacting to. His eye shape is often known as having "bedroom eyes" because people find them seductive. The fact that he was almost shaking with anger while reacting to those women makes him seem unstable.
Ah, that helps me see how anybody was seeing those tiktoks as sexy, though it still doesn't come off to me as bedroom eyes. On him, it feels halfway to a Kubrick stare.
@@ganymedeanoutlaw 😂 "Kubrick stare". I agree. He set off my fight or flight response. But for the women who found him attractive, I think the heavy-lidded look was what did it.
@@ganymedeanoutlaweyes like that are only attractive when the rest of the eye shape is attractive like Maddie from euphoria. His eyes are too round and have too much upper lid for a man. He also just looks creepy so. Plenty of studies on “senpaku eyes” if u look them up
It just looks like the thousand yard stare. He didn't just catch a glimpse of an attractive woman, he realizes he left the oven on, faucet running, and his door unlocked.
I feel the same. The blank stare is so creepy. Like there's bad intent behind that and not in hot way. I feel like most people are gonna have more positive micro expressions flicker on their face. You might see someone you are interested in and get an excited smile on your face. Additionally micro expressions are very hard to intentionally do, like they happen unconsciously.
You can also tell how Kevin has the thinnest skin possible because his whole schtick is his facial expressions and how he looks, and when people discuss it and talk about it, he gets upset about people talking about his appearance and facial expressions? THAT'S YOUR WHOLE SCHTICK DUDE WHAT DID YOU EXPECT
It makes him seem like such a loser that he takes it so personally when a woman does not find his stare oh so attractive, it just comes off as entitled and childish. Like get over yourself duuuude, not everyone has to be attracted to you or be enthralled by your "Female Gaze" (Which I find extra gross as he's claiming he knows what every woman wants). This man is goofing if he thinks people believe he's gay. This is gross hetero dude behaviour.
@@atmywhitson Especially if they claim to be "the" something Like, this guy brands himself as *the* female gaze, one who pulls off the infinitely nondescript (I swear, the people talking about it are actively avoiding any explanation of what it is-) expression that no one else could...and is upset when people talk about it?
@@atmywhitson yeah but I mean it's one thing to be making content on like- arts and crafts and have the entire discussion be about your looks and facial expressions, and it's another thing to make content entirely about the looks and facial expressions. I can kinda see how someone in the first situation could be disappointed or upset or self conscious that people are talking about something you weren't trying to draw attention to. But when that's literally the content there's a lot less benefit of the doubt I can offer really.
the blatant racism when he was making fun of those black women's facial features. pisses me off when people think they can make fun of random people just because they got validation from a couple people online.
Okay the bar might be in hell, but seeing Jarvis get genuinely upset that Kevin was making racist jokes towards the black woman near the end when he hardly ever gets heated over anything makes me happy. Hardly anyone except other black women are ever on the black woman's side, so I appreciate him making a point about it.
Same. Which makes me realize just how disappointing humans and society are. It’s bittersweet. Nice to see it done but only illuminates just how infrequently it’s typically done. 🥲
I actually loved it too, which is so sad that the bar is that low that basic disdain for racism is commendable. But it really was nice to see Jarvis that heated about it sticking up for woc and women in general
Right same, i had followed him way before this because he used to make funny vids but i deleted tik tok while this was happening. so when last week i reinstalled it, i was horrified 💀💀
Kevin, to me, is the equivalent of "What if the Dream face reveal was a whole person." He's not ugly but also not hot. He's....Kevin. And that's okay. *HOWEVER,* his personality tips the scales into "gross" territory very easily. No one outright called him Ugly but his thin-skin heard "I'M BEING ATTACKED NY UGLY PEOPLE!! I KNOW I'M HOT CAUSE PEOPLE ON THE INTERNET TOLD ME SO!!"
not black (asian); showed my sister this kevin guy the other day and she said people probably like him because 'white girls will like any white guy who just sort of has nice eyes' lol
Oh I especially feel this, I don't live near many black people where I am right now. Sometimes it hurts cause it feels so isolating. Though I also just don't have any friends here in general which makes it worse. But it feels good to know I'm not crazy for feeling like I'm being treated differently as a black woman.
This dude screams "nice guy" energy. I'm sure the people fangirling over him is a nice ego-boost, but he can't expect everyone to have the same opinion. Edit: I’m not sure if people know that “nice guy” is not actually meant as a compliment. You can look up “nice guy” stories and find plenty of disturbing behavior from guys not getting their way.
@T N hey sorry, but I'm a little confused. I might be wrong, but to me it seemed more like he was just making fun of people in general and jarvis' two examples just happened to be black.
wait ok so, every black woman he automatically makes fun of their appearance (mostly black features),when he’s making fun of a white woman, he compares her to a celebrity…..ok
Him being gay was the biggest twist for me. This is the kind of dude that will hit you up on grindr and if things get even a little bit awkward in the conversation he will start shittalking you about how he didn't even find you attractive in the first place
Right?? Like I keep seeing that his age is 22. BRUH IM 22 and I’m still young enough that I sometimes get mistaken for someone in high school. AND HES BALDING LMAO
Kevin's stare is the look men give me while they're mentally undressing you, it's so creepy and unnerving to receive that look/stare in real life. I swear it's these kids who are not experienced who think that is the female gaze
To me, Kevin seems to have the most fragile confidence. He posts these idk thirst traps (?) and then when someone says they don’t get it he gets so defensive and mad
Exactly. And then he gets racist about it whenever he possibly can for some sick joke or attention from his audience. I thought I heard himself say he was Arab along with him saying he was gay which I guess makes him think it's okay to say these things??
Things I like about Kevin: He looks like the tragic hero in a classic Russian novel. Things I do not like about Kevin: Pretty much everything else I'm seeing here
tiktok's ability to completely butcher definitions of terms always amazes me. There's so much widespread misinformation on there. Also whenever someone does something they even remotely like they put them on a crazy pedestal, in all aspects. Then act like they're experiencing the ultimate betrayal when they turn out to be shitty after a someone does a minute of scrolling on their page. It's just insane to me how vitality works on there.
Same thing is happening in this comment section to an extent, people here are treating everything Jarvis says as gospel when Jarvis himself said some of these things are rumors/unconfirmed. As well as honestly over exaggerating how bad this dude is calling him flat out "a racist" when they see 3 clips from hours long livestreams with very little context. I don't like the guy but the people in this comment section are riot-like
He may not have had much actual self love before this, but he gives me narc vibes from the content he’s putting out and his reactions to criticism. The type to exploit people bc he’s unhappy with himself.
@@askinredroads5132 why is it uncool? Are you the thought police? Most narcissists will never get formally diagnosed because they think therapy is stupid, and because their extreme need for social validation and control means they’ll hide a lot of their harmful actions in private but you can still have a pretty good handle on whether someone has NPD by their specific dysfunctional behavior. If NPD was actually able to be controlled I would say you’re right. Generally, if you can get a narcs butt into therapy, all they do is learn how to manipulate better. That’s why I don’t feel bad about armchair diagnosing, because professionals don’t have a very good grasp of narcs in the first place. So there’s nothing to delegitimize. It’s a personality disorder, quite a bit different than a mental illness, and garners less sympathy from me. I have a narc radar from my years of observing, and it’s not steered me wrong.
@@kphoria1009 yeah it’s a disorder where to feel better and superior about themselves, they prey on other people, and intentionally harm them just for the sake of it. It can be almost identical to psychopathy, save for internal motivation towards how others perceive them. It’s a disordered way of living, but that doesn’t mean I need to coddle them because it’s a “disorder.”
@@tutererangihaeata3526 idk how to tell you this, but being the same race as someone does not automatically include supporting women from that group. Sexism is a different issue from racism, don't be a clown
Since the first time I saw this guy he gave me the heebie jeebies. Not only does he look like a 45 year old man but his eyes say “I’m gonna follow you into a dark alley after this party” imo. He goes from pretending to be a nervous awkward guy at a party to looking at the camera like he’s thinking about how he’s going to assault you later and the switch up is so creepy makes my skin crawl I don’t get why everyone is all over it 😭
LITERALLY SAME. the first video i saw of him there were idk a few, maybe a 100 comments about him being hit and all that and i thought they were jokes, like yk typical tiktok “SLAAYYY HAVE MY BABIES” comments about unconventionally attractive people yk. but then 4 or 5 more vids on my fyp and i began to question this “joke”….. then the whole “female gaze” thing started and it really hit me that they were serious. okay then….
When Kevin was trying to “roast” the 43 year old women by saying she’s lived “double his life” he’s only digging himself by admitting that he’s a 22 year old thats severely balding 💀
I never understood what was so sexy. I thought he looked like a serial killer or like he was about to sneeze. It’s literally just looking at a woman like you actually like her and the duet on the left did it WAY better than Kevin ever could.
The creepiest part of this whole ordeal wasn't Kevin himself, it was the amount of women who were adamant that he was someone so amazingly hot and talking about how they would cheat/leave their partners/husbands if they ever saw Kevin look at them like this IRL.
All I have to say is that if THAT is the look y'all find attractive, just date STONERS, the half closed eyes and relaxed grin is their norm. Date really high dudes.
I don’t trust men that can’t be mocked. Chat shouldn’t need to beg him not to make a racist joke. It’s so easy to laugh things off. He took the power of going viral and was lightning fast to use it poorly. Thank you for covering this, I didn’t know he was such a shitbag.
Kevins gaze always gave me more "Disassociating mid conversation while looking at a stranger and getting caught" Which feels oddly specific Also, I don't really get the use of the term "female gaze" outside of fictional men.
That's exactly what I thought he was doing. I don't even know what you're meaning by "female gaze" because I just know about it as the female "alternative" to the "male gaze". Both of these are all about the depiction of women in a piece of art, how much agency the woman has, the creator's intent, and the audience's perception.
I also thought it was him getting distracted by a woman's chest or something mid conversation, idk how this is supposed to be the female gaze I felt like I was losing my mind the whole video lmao
@@Belle-zq3xc exactly I was like isn’t he doing the same thing we don’t like the other guys doing? Looking at me a like a piece of meat? Is it supposed to be okay because he caught himself lmaoooo
i feel like everyone loved that the look in his eyes said “i’m lucky to have you” instead of the usual “you’re lucky to have me” cocky look. which was refreshing to everyone but then they throw in terms like “female gaze” and people start calling him hot (?), and now it’s a huge cluster fck
"How i stopped dressing for the male gaze" was a thing, like okay, you are now basing your wardrobe around men. Conservative Christians, school dress codes, and everyone who asked "well, what were you wearing?" are finally happy.
@@imsmolandangery4274 I'm pretty sure when people mean they stopped dressing for the male gaze they mean now they base their wardrobe on what _they_ think it's attractive and looks good on them instead of the stereotypical male idea of "hotness"
I literally thought the female gaze was just in storytelling media like novels and movies and stuff. It's a way of telling a story that appeals to women, especially sexual scenes. I'm so confused as to what people think the female gaze is in this context.
@@MarkelleRayneeSheree Male Gaze and Female Gaze are pretty much that, though it extends beyond just storytelling. E.G. A beer comercial that highlights an woman who is picked because she is attractive to the average man is appeal to the "Male Gaze" specifically because it is assuming the worldview of a male viewer. (Sounds a little tautological there, but whatever.) It is basically any form of media that "sees" the world in the same way as a man does. A super clear example is all those old Conan Style sword and sorcery movies. The men in them are all massive musclebound units, and the women (even the fighters) are all petite and conventionally beautiful. While both groups are wearing little clothing and are "hot" the way in which they are hot differs. The women look the way men would want their women to look, while the men look like the way men would want to be hot. So in either case the aspirational aspect of its worldview is directed towards the male viewer. Important Disclaimer: Male and Female Gaze or not inherently bad. The problem is not that the male gaze exists. It is always going to exist. The problem is that the male gaze is heavily *favored* over the female, which creates an imbalance in media. This is a big problem for media companies that want to pull more female customers into their fandoms. But yeah, it literally has nothing to do with the physical look of some ones eyes. This guy just happened to have soft, watery and non-threatening eyes. Which is not even a female thing? I know a lot of women with intense and confident physical gazes.
I personally have never understood why someone looking at you like they're trying to undress you is supposed to be sexy or attractive. I don't understand it, it makes me feel creeped out. If other people like it that's cool but I just don't, I see the same thing in all those story apps promoting werewolves love stories and the like.
Totally unrelated, but: One time I was talking with a white coworker about “the white gaze” and ways that black folks adapt to that scrutiny, and she had this puzzled look on her face the whole time. It wasn’t until the very end that she told me up until that moment she thought I was saying “the white gays”. 😐
Describing women as a code to crack is weird. Attraction is different for many people. And I’m glad you mentioned that a lot black women have different opinions and that white Women’s opinions are not a default.
The clever trick of white supremacy (as a cultural program/system vs individuals in hoods) is to make it seem like the white experience is THE human experience.
This female gaze is just men turning it to themselves again and it just feels like a mislabeled new version of the male gaze. It’s giving nice guy that will not make you feel safe if you reject him vibes

I am honestly so confused. There are some people who have big eyes that have nice stare/gaze but I am so confused with the reactions with Kevin. •I don’t know why but depending on the videos,Kevin gives me creepy vibes!
What's weird is that the circumstance of his virality is so silly, not something to be taken that seriously. But then he turns around and treats it more seriously than everyone criticizing the platform's reaction to his one popular video. Also, "the female gaze" definitely isn't insulting the appearance of every woman who doesn't find him attractive, that's incel behavior right there.
i feel so dumb, i thought kevins whole thing was that it was satire and his fanbase understood that. i was fully convinced this was a bit and that he wanted to be an actor so this was a shocking revelation
@@MinorKey135 weird take but i hear you i guess, its not so much that i was giving the benefit of doubt as much as it was that i just do not care because at the end of the day he has no impact on my life
I’ve seen it suggested that some women saw him as a stand in for their partners. If your partner looked at you like that, it might be appealing. If a stranger does it, it’s creepy. I’ve also heard that it might be attractive because it’s fiction where people know they won’t face negative consequences from the look. Kind of like how people romanticise a lot of abusive tropes in romance fiction. So a guy in fiction looking at you like this might make you feel desired in a fun way, whereas a guy irl looking at you like this might make you feel desired in a more predatory way. I’ve also heard some women just have weird taste and we're all different. So I guess some women genuinely would find this look attractive irl. Idk. I personally don’t really get it either and part of me thinks a lot of women were just pretending to like him because that was the trend lol.
I’m straight and have seen less conventionally attractive men (and women) as attractive usually because of their personalities. This man has a trash personality and the videos he posted did not depict anything redeemable about himself. I feel like some of the people who find him attractive are those who obsess over serial killers or people trying to boost the confidence of someone they think appears modest.
@@genericname8727 I also have a theory that women probably tried really hard to find the attractiveness in him, and when you concentrate on the good things, it kind of becomes all you see. I’m demi so it doesn’t work for me, but even I could agree that the slight femininity of his features and sanpaku eyes might be seen as attractive.
Jarvis is usually such a forgiving and nice person, on his videos, that seeing he getting angry with the guy (for all the good reasons) feels extra meaningful.
Male gaze was specifically a Film theory concept (the audience is assumed to be male so top gun volley ball scene is homo erotic but women sensually playing in swim wear is straight, there are other aspects about how men and even objects are depicted) but the internet is allergic to using words correctly

Nothing cures a bad day like using a racial slur, especially combined with watching people react to videos of you merely looking at a camera. Better than trying some meditation or talking to a friend to get cheered up.
But what can expect from a racist narcissist who doesn't even understand the basic meaning of the sociological concept he has butchered to create content (the male gaze and the female gaze, which he literally thinks means how men and women look at one another) or that fantastic Edgar Allen Poe comment?

Right. He's an ass. Straight up.
I thought it was funny how he thought calling her Lindsey Lohan was an insult when she's beautiful and talented
Narcissistic injury. He doesn't understand the concept of male gaze/female gaze as a cultural response, yet uses the term anyway because he thinks it just means "how men and women look at each other". He is also racist, didn't get the awesome Edgar Allen Poe joke and literally spent time live-streaming himself watching people react to his face, like a modern version of the tale of Narcissus except that Narcissus had actual depth to his character whereas this guy is just a narcissistic, racist bellend. The woman was perfectly polite but with all the points mentioned before considered, how could we expect him to be reasonable?
Also, I don't understand how this became so popular? These are just videos of him fumbling in front of a camera and then pulling a kind of smirk. Then again, from what I've seen of TikTok, not much creative though seems to go into what is produced (I've never been on there to be fair, and don't plan to either - these commentary videos show me enough to want to stay away).

Yeah it's not really giving "sexy" as much as it's giving "too many special brownies"
The fact that the definition of the female gaze is about what female creatives can bring to their work separate from the male eye, but it's been turned into 'this man has cracked the woman code and now all women find him hot' speaks numbers
I think this all starts with, like, people taking male gaze (= misogyny produces movies that turn women into something to be consumed by The Male Gaze) and turned it into ✨ Male Gaze ✨ = woman sexy in movie, so then, when creatives and thinkers actually try to come up with a term for works that seek to portray the subjects as all human and not as a set of Men and their Playthings, naming it The Female Gaze in opposition to the original male gaze, the crowds immediately latch onto the easiest definition which is "When Man attractive to Woman"
@@aristat what please simplify for me if you could
@@Sir-Taco People have misunderstood more complex film concepts/feminist critique of film (movies are made by men for men, the inherent misogyny in our culture results in a diminished and stylised representation of women as objects or an accessory to men)...so in this instance that's been boiled down to "this is what men find hot" conversely they've wrongly assumed the female gaze is the opposite and "this is what women find hot" and that's just not what those terms mean.
@@Sir-Taco I'm no expert on this but Maggie Mae Fish gave an example that resonated with me in Silence of the Lambs. Normally in film you'd see a woman as beautiful as Foster walking into that room she'd be the object 'cos she's a beautiful women, let's move the camera up and down her while the men (all the police officers in the funeral parlor) leer at her and the men in the room would be in on it as would the audience, there's no judgement of that and no empathy for her. Instead, we see her entering through the door from her perspective. For once it isn't Jodie Foster being stared at...the camera is her looking at the men all gawking at her and it diminishes them. You can see that they're either leering at her like pigs or are uncomfortable "why womz in FBI?". It doesn't glamourise her objectification or her strangeness or her opposition to the male and even more importantly it doesn't glamourise them. We saw what it was like from her perspective to be diminished by a bunch of creeps and sexist jerks and the end view was that they were in the wrong for that. It impacted me heavily at the time I was still a kid and I didn't know why but that's what it was. For once they were made to look bad for doing what most films do all the time to women. Enable misogyny and male primacy.

The fact I genuinely like his content
Because I saw him for skits not the female face gaze
Tell that to half the people on TikTok
"The male gaze" and "the female gaze" refers to filmmaking techniques and other art-- the male gaze shows women whose bodies are pointed towards the camera in a way that would not be their natural posture, who are shot in sections of their bodies rather than focusing on their faces. It's about presenting the female body through the eyes of the spectator, the audience, who is presumed to be a man who is attracted to these women. The "female gaze" would be the opposite of that, a theoretical portrayal of women through the eyes of a female spectator. Language is fluid and I don't think it always only has to refer to cinematography, but a dude filming intentionally awkward thirst traps for women is not "the female gaze." That makes no sense. The male gaze is not just what men are attracted to, and the female gaze is not just what women are attracted to.
I think qoves studio has detailed videos with a concrete scientific perspective on male and female gaze. The logic behind it lies in evolutionary psychology.
Exactly!! Why a lot of people just dont investigate about terms?
I agree about the term but disagree about what this guy did not being the female gaze. In film the actress & crew are told to act/move/ shoot them in them through the male gaze" which is supposed to be what men find most attractive. Here he is acting/moving/shooting himself in the "female gaze" in a way supposed to be more attractive to most women.
Of course the 2 are not equal & most of thr discussions around the male gaze is negative. It often focuses in the predatory aspect & reducing a woman down to eye candy, where as this guy adds more depth to the focus character through his female gaze lense. However I I think he does a good job at highlighting the differences between what a lot of alpha males think women find attractive, compared to what a lot of women actually find attractive... Now the same could be said for the female gaze too, with diffeeent archytypes & tropes appealing to different men but I'm not gonna rehash old ground & this comment is probably already long enough!
@@NotAnotherKuromi i dont think either male or female gaze has predatory aspects. Its just the way people percieve it. Its weird that male gaze has become a synonym for creeping while science based channels explain them easily with the help of evolutionary psychology. Its no wonder that feminists are crying all over the video even though it has a neutral to positive stance on both male and female gaze.
I think you did a great job explaining these terms.
Thank you SO MUCH for bringing his racist jabs towards black women to light! I felt like I was in the freaking twilight zone for a bit on TikTok with people swooning over an entitled butthole that rants and makes fun of genetic features on people that don't find what he does attractive 😅.
Dude looked like he was in the middle of an awkward conversation, spaced out, then snapped back to reality
That's what I thought as well! Like he glitched for a moment and it completely went over my head that it was supposed to be sexy
He looks like those hyper awkward guys that “space out” looking at your ass. And then genuinely try to bs you that they just accidentally zoned out there.
that's the point. The implication is that he started thinking lewd things for a moment
That’s literally what I thought. I guess I’m the epitome of attraction when I space out in public and stare out into space.

as a queer (trans) man, WE DO NOT CLAIM HIM. I do not know how someone could not understand how making fun of someone's ethnic features is inherently wrong and harmful, especially when that person is part of a marginalized group.
As another queer (gay) guy I do not claim him nor understand how he is attractive to some 😭
As the same, saying we don't claim this obvious loser does more harm than good. His identity doesn't matter; this guy sucks, and everyone can agree with that. No need to resort to tribalism.
She literally started with "just a basic white man"? Is that ok then, or no?
Jarvis getting legitimately upset at the degradation of black women is exceedingly closer to capturing the female gaze than Kevin and his pathetic attempt to seem humble and approachable. I thought the Kevin thing was overblown on tiktok, but man those lives really sent me over the edge
I feel like I have seen 100 creepy dudes do those same looks on TikTok. EVERY TIME me and everyone I heard/known thinks it's creepy. Its a shallow way to look like a you are trying to look "sexy." But somehow when this guy does it people are saying it's sexy. I feel like it's this weird mental thing where the supposed context or labels change how you feel, not the actual content.
Also, it's weird that this is the female gaze. It isn't exploitative or demeaning in any way. You just look at a camera and bite your lip. Sure, people find it weird, but finding it weird isn't what they are talking about correct?
When you look at the male gaze in media it is explicitly demeaning. Only hiring hot "chicks" because they are hotter, making your looks your value. Writing in those woman without any character or nuance. Making them be primarily a secondary position that needs saving, or is treated like an object or trophy. Like a possession. Or practically enforcing that successful woman HAVE to be good looking. That is what the male gaze was. It's gotten better sure, I hope. All of that was only possible in the first place was because men were, and still are, in power.
The female gaze, what is it? Looking at people? Huh... After watching more of this video, I'm not even going to continue. Both "gazes" are not even close to be comparable. This topic will die soon, probably...

Sometimes it's fun to hype up a conventionally unattractive person. Sometimes you can be unattractive but there genuinely is some quality about how you carry yourself that makes you attractive.

Oh I especially feel this, I don't live near many black people where I am right now. Sometimes it hurts cause it feels so isolating. Though I also just don't have any friends here in general which makes it worse. But it feels good to know I'm not crazy for feeling like I'm being treated differently as a black woman.
This dude screams "nice guy" energy. I'm sure the people fangirling over him is a nice ego-boost, but he can't expect everyone to have the same opinion.
Edit: I’m not sure if people know that “nice guy” is not actually meant as a compliment. You can look up “nice guy” stories and find plenty of disturbing behavior from guys not getting their way.
100%
If you’re talking about Kevin, I personally find him more creepy than a « nice guy ».
I got creepy vibes, which were 100% confirmed by him consequently body shaming (black) women
@T N hey sorry, but I'm a little confused. I might be wrong, but to me it seemed more like he was just making fun of people in general and jarvis' two examples just happened to be black.
@@specter3660 Yes, I was talking about Kevin.
wait ok so, every black woman he automatically makes fun of their appearance (mostly black features),when he’s making fun of a white woman, he compares her to a celebrity…..ok
This guy is a weirdo. But the people who really hype him up tend to be palm coloured
yuppp I did not like that. And he said “whattt what did I do 🥺” weaponized ignorance with his new 3M followers.
i love white men /s
The audacity of him to do that with that hairline is astounding

If someone told me I looked like I was about to get addicted to absinthe and write poems about ravens I would be so flattered.
HAHA ME TOO!!
I mean, Poe was talented. This man is not.
Him being gay was the biggest twist for me. This is the kind of dude that will hit you up on grindr and if things get even a little bit awkward in the conversation he will start shittalking you about how he didn't even find you attractive in the first place
You’re literally describing a “Nice Guy” lol which he deff gives off creepy NG vibes
This is a thing with gay dudes too??
i dont think hes actually gay, i think he is just 'trolling'. what a loser guy
@@PinkPanda-Zx this is a human thing. No one is entitled for a relationship or sex
@@PinkPanda-Zx it's a thing with guys in general tbh💀
His gaze gives me “I’ll lock you up in my basement” and “I’ll remove your organs”
Yes I agree with you. this Kevin guy gives me creepy vibes, I am honestly so confused on why some people are infatuated with him.
Yup. Even a Kubrick Stare is more expressive.
it's giving Dahmer tbh
he looks like a homunculus made out of dust, grease, and a toothbrush
i've gotten creepy vibes from him from the start and seeing these videos is letting me know that i can trust my intuition
Love how he tries to mock that woman for being double his age when he LOOKS double his age
Right?? Like I keep seeing that his age is 22. BRUH IM 22 and I’m still young enough that I sometimes get mistaken for someone in high school. AND HES BALDING LMAO

@@HaylieJYapsMy dad is literally 50+ and looks 25 years younger than he does…. His face is lowkey disturbing
Kevin's stare is the look men give me while they're mentally undressing you, it's so creepy and unnerving to receive that look/stare in real life. I swear it's these kids who are not experienced who think that is the female gaze
He's literally just avoiding eye contact and then looking at the camera.... go girl, give me nothing
jarvis they're called lesbians, not "female gays"
😭
bruh 💀
Lmaoooooo😭😭
or just... gay
this is good
To me, Kevin seems to have the most fragile confidence. He posts these idk thirst traps (?) and then when someone says they don’t get it he gets so defensive and mad
Exactly. And then he gets racist about it whenever he possibly can for some sick joke or attention from his audience. I thought I heard himself say he was Arab along with him saying he was gay which I guess makes him think it's okay to say these things??
The second lady on his stream barely got 2 words in before he had a meltdown 💀
Things I like about Kevin: He looks like the tragic hero in a classic Russian novel.
Things I do not like about Kevin: Pretty much everything else I'm seeing here
tiktok's ability to completely butcher definitions of terms always amazes me. There's so much widespread misinformation on there. Also whenever someone does something they even remotely like they put them on a crazy pedestal, in all aspects. Then act like they're experiencing the ultimate betrayal when they turn out to be shitty after a someone does a minute of scrolling on their page. It's just insane to me how vitality works on there.
Same thing is happening in this comment section to an extent, people here are treating everything Jarvis says as gospel when Jarvis himself said some of these things are rumors/unconfirmed. As well as honestly over exaggerating how bad this dude is calling him flat out "a racist" when they see 3 clips from hours long livestreams with very little context. I don't like the guy but the people in this comment section are riot-like
Kids on TikTok speak with such confidence while being totally wrong. It’s wild.

You can tell that Kevin wasnt a confident person before this whole situation
He may not have had much actual self love before this, but he gives me narc vibes from the content he’s putting out and his reactions to criticism. The type to exploit people bc he’s unhappy with himself.
kevin is those people that get their first taste of confidence and then overdo it until that's their only personality left
@@askinredroads5132 why is it uncool? Are you the thought police? Most narcissists will never get formally diagnosed because they think therapy is stupid, and because their extreme need for social validation and control means they’ll hide a lot of their harmful actions in private but you can still have a pretty good handle on whether someone has NPD by their specific dysfunctional behavior.
If NPD was actually able to be controlled I would say you’re right. Generally, if you can get a narcs butt into therapy, all they do is learn how to manipulate better. That’s why I don’t feel bad about armchair diagnosing, because professionals don’t have a very good grasp of narcs in the first place. So there’s nothing to delegitimize. It’s a personality disorder, quite a bit different than a mental illness, and garners less sympathy from me. I have a narc radar from my years of observing, and it’s not steered me wrong.
@@nsjs17 personality disorders are still disorders
@@kphoria1009 yeah it’s a disorder where to feel better and superior about themselves, they prey on other people, and intentionally harm them just for the sake of it. It can be almost identical to psychopathy, save for internal motivation towards how others perceive them. It’s a disordered way of living, but that doesn’t mean I need to coddle them because it’s a “disorder.”
Your unabashed support and defense for black women just won my heart. Thanks for being you, Jarvis.
Black guy defends black people, yes so uncommon
@@tutererangihaeata3526 idk how to tell you this, but being the same race as someone does not automatically include supporting women from that group. Sexism is a different issue from racism, don't be a clown

Male gaze- objectification
Female gaze- treating women like human beings. Being desired as a person not an object.
Since the first time I saw this guy he gave me the heebie jeebies. Not only does he look like a 45 year old man but his eyes say “I’m gonna follow you into a dark alley after this party” imo. He goes from pretending to be a nervous awkward guy at a party to looking at the camera like he’s thinking about how he’s going to assault you later and the switch up is so creepy makes my skin crawl I don’t get why everyone is all over it 😭
He looks like he’d roofied my drink 😭
Remember that tiktok was just full of serial killer fangirls, that's probably who's going crazy for this.
LITERALLY SAME. the first video i saw of him there were idk a few, maybe a 100 comments about him being hit and all that and i thought they were jokes, like yk typical tiktok “SLAAYYY HAVE MY BABIES” comments about unconventionally attractive people yk. but then 4 or 5 more vids on my fyp and i began to question this “joke”….. then the whole “female gaze” thing started and it really hit me that they were serious. okay then….
Same. He has murderer eyes
YES!!!
When Kevin was trying to “roast” the 43 year old women by saying she’s lived “double his life” he’s only digging himself by admitting that he’s a 22 year old thats severely balding 💀
RIGHTT buy some minoxidil my love
😭😭I’d didn’t even think about that. That’s hilarious 😂

@sharletwitch THATS WHAT I THOUGHT!!! Dude i don’t understand why the chat was like “oooh brutal” like wtf, Lindsay is so gorgeous.

Kevin strikes me as the real-life version of that one guy on tiktok who does the uncomfortably accurate socially awkward “nice guy” impressions.
UR SO RIGHT
THATS what it was, thank you
THIS KILLED ME BRUH HELLLLLPPPP
Link??
is it the dude with the freckles who was like “jennifer…pepperoni pizza”
I never understood what was so sexy. I thought he looked like a serial killer or like he was about to sneeze. It’s literally just looking at a woman like you actually like her and the duet on the left did it WAY better than Kevin ever could.
To be fair, women have been going crazy for serial killers for years so that checks out 😂
@@pe7e Mostly white women if we're being honest
I thought it was joke, like it was ironic or maybe they just liked his personality 😅. I’m surprised to find out that it’s actually a real thing.
He look like he is taking a mugshot because he committed war crimes in armenia
He looked high as hell imo
The creepiest part of this whole ordeal wasn't Kevin himself, it was the amount of women who were adamant that he was someone so amazingly hot and talking about how they would cheat/leave their partners/husbands if they ever saw Kevin look at them like this IRL.
and the fact that he could easily take advantage of that power

and mine craft ofc
I don’t trust men that can’t be mocked. Chat shouldn’t need to beg him not to make a racist joke. It’s so easy to laugh things off. He took the power of going viral and was lightning fast to use it poorly. Thank you for covering this, I didn’t know he was such a shitbag.

Kevins gaze always gave me more "Disassociating mid conversation while looking at a stranger and getting caught" Which feels oddly specific
Also, I don't really get the use of the term "female gaze" outside of fictional men.
That's exactly what I thought he was doing.
I don't even know what you're meaning by "female gaze" because I just know about it as the female "alternative" to the "male gaze". Both of these are all about the depiction of women in a piece of art, how much agency the woman has, the creator's intent, and the audience's perception.
Thank you for putting it into words, that’s what I thought too 😂
I also thought it was him getting distracted by a woman's chest or something mid conversation, idk how this is supposed to be the female gaze I felt like I was losing my mind the whole video lmao
@@Belle-zq3xc exactly I was like isn’t he doing the same thing we don’t like the other guys doing? Looking at me a like a piece of meat? Is it supposed to be okay because he caught himself lmaoooo
i feel like everyone loved that the look in his eyes said “i’m lucky to have you” instead of the usual “you’re lucky to have me” cocky look. which was refreshing to everyone but then they throw in terms like “female gaze” and people start calling him hot (?), and now it’s a huge cluster fck
I too love when my husband stares at me as though he has suddenly had a stroke.
wait, there are people out there who think the male gaze is a LITERAL THING like the way a man gazes at a woman??? I'm gonna cry
"How i stopped dressing for the male gaze" was a thing, like okay, you are now basing your wardrobe around men. Conservative Christians, school dress codes, and everyone who asked "well, what were you wearing?" are finally happy.
Is it not the assumption in media that the spectator, the camera, and the protagonist from who's eyes we watch the woman, are all men?
@@imsmolandangery4274 I'm pretty sure when people mean they stopped dressing for the male gaze they mean now they base their wardrobe on what _they_ think it's attractive and looks good on them instead of the stereotypical male idea of "hotness"
I literally thought the female gaze was just in storytelling media like novels and movies and stuff. It's a way of telling a story that appeals to women, especially sexual scenes. I'm so confused as to what people think the female gaze is in this context.
@@MarkelleRayneeSheree Male Gaze and Female Gaze are pretty much that, though it extends beyond just storytelling.
E.G. A beer comercial that highlights an woman who is picked because she is attractive to the average man is appeal to the "Male Gaze" specifically because it is assuming the worldview of a male viewer. (Sounds a little tautological there, but whatever.)
It is basically any form of media that "sees" the world in the same way as a man does.
A super clear example is all those old Conan Style sword and sorcery movies. The men in them are all massive musclebound units, and the women (even the fighters) are all petite and conventionally beautiful. While both groups are wearing little clothing and are "hot" the way in which they are hot differs. The women look the way men would want their women to look, while the men look like the way men would want to be hot. So in either case the aspirational aspect of its worldview is directed towards the male viewer.
Important Disclaimer: Male and Female Gaze or not inherently bad. The problem is not that the male gaze exists. It is always going to exist. The problem is that the male gaze is heavily *favored* over the female, which creates an imbalance in media. This is a big problem for media companies that want to pull more female customers into their fandoms.
But yeah, it literally has nothing to do with the physical look of some ones eyes. This guy just happened to have soft, watery and non-threatening eyes. Which is not even a female thing? I know a lot of women with intense and confident physical gazes.
The gaze is more of a “I’m high and just dropped my pizza rolls” than anything else.
Or kinda like I'm high at walmart can you tell oh wait you're high too
THAT'S why he oddly reminded me of one of my ex-boyfriends! xD Thank you!

I personally have never understood why someone looking at you like they're trying to undress you is supposed to be sexy or attractive. I don't understand it, it makes me feel creeped out.
If other people like it that's cool but I just don't, I see the same thing in all those story apps promoting werewolves love stories and the like.
look up zayn in 1 direction
Totally unrelated, but: One time I was talking with a white coworker about “the white gaze” and ways that black folks adapt to that scrutiny, and she had this puzzled look on her face the whole time. It wasn’t until the very end that she told me up until that moment she thought I was saying “the white gays”. 😐
This is hilarious

Describing women as a code to crack is weird. Attraction is different for many people. And I’m glad you mentioned that a lot black women have different opinions and that white Women’s opinions are not a default.
The clever trick of white supremacy (as a cultural program/system vs individuals in hoods) is to make it seem like the white experience is THE human experience.
yessss well said 😂
as a women, kevin makes me feel more like a lesbian rather than bisexual
This female gaze is just men turning it to themselves again and it just feels like a mislabeled new version of the male gaze. It’s giving nice guy that will not make you feel safe if you reject him vibes

I am honestly so confused.
There are some people who have big eyes that have nice stare/gaze but I am so confused with the reactions with Kevin.
•I don’t know why but depending on the videos,Kevin gives me creepy vibes!
What's weird is that the circumstance of his virality is so silly, not something to be taken that seriously. But then he turns around and treats it more seriously than everyone criticizing the platform's reaction to his one popular video.
Also, "the female gaze" definitely isn't insulting the appearance of every woman who doesn't find him attractive, that's incel behavior right there.
the way he just screamed WHAT DID I DO?!? grace me the ick so badly
i feel so dumb, i thought kevins whole thing was that it was satire and his fanbase understood that. i was fully convinced this was a bit and that he wanted to be an actor so this was a shocking revelation
No same, i truly thought it was all a bit lmao
literally im shocked that so many people are finding this attractive... even me and my shit taste in men can see that this is absolutely ridiculous
I don’t know that giving that benefit of the doubt is wise. To me if it’s actually a (worthwhile) bit, then that should be apparent in the work.
@@MinorKey135 weird take but i hear you i guess, its not so much that i was giving the benefit of doubt as much as it was that i just do not care because at the end of the day he has no impact on my life
i'm pretty sure it is. but im guessing most people here aren't on tik tok but most of his stuff is just satire and kind of cynical.
as a lesbian this man has perplexed me for weeks. I genuinely couldn’t tell if all the straights were gaslighting me😂
I probably like men and I also don't get it.
I think they may have been gaslighting themselves but as a pan girlie I’m not limited to this so I may just be wrong?
I’ve seen it suggested that some women saw him as a stand in for their partners. If your partner looked at you like that, it might be appealing. If a stranger does it, it’s creepy.
I’ve also heard that it might be attractive because it’s fiction where people know they won’t face negative consequences from the look. Kind of like how people romanticise a lot of abusive tropes in romance fiction. So a guy in fiction looking at you like this might make you feel desired in a fun way, whereas a guy irl looking at you like this might make you feel desired in a more predatory way.
I’ve also heard some women just have weird taste and we're all different. So I guess some women genuinely would find this look attractive irl. Idk. I personally don’t really get it either and part of me thinks a lot of women were just pretending to like him because that was the trend lol.
I’m straight and have seen less conventionally attractive men (and women) as attractive usually because of their personalities. This man has a trash personality and the videos he posted did not depict anything redeemable about himself. I feel like some of the people who find him attractive are those who obsess over serial killers or people trying to boost the confidence of someone they think appears modest.
@@genericname8727 I also have a theory that women probably tried really hard to find the attractiveness in him, and when you concentrate on the good things, it kind of becomes all you see. I’m demi so it doesn’t work for me, but even I could agree that the slight femininity of his features and sanpaku eyes might be seen as attractive.
Jarvis is usually such a forgiving and nice person, on his videos, that seeing he getting angry with the guy (for all the good reasons) feels extra meaningful.
agreed
agreed kevins a weirdo
Male gaze was specifically a Film theory concept (the audience is assumed to be male so top gun volley ball scene is homo erotic but women sensually playing in swim wear is straight, there are other aspects about how men and even objects are depicted) but the internet is allergic to using words correctly
