Male Gaze
The Male Gaze is feminist propaganda stating in a characteristically shrill manner that the world is created through the patriarchal lens of the straight male. This basically means that the disgusting male scum shitlord is exclusively catered to in the media with gratuitous ass and titty shots, and that progressives and other degenerates really don't care for it at all, to the point that they are, once again, fully prepared to bitch and moan ceaselessly about yet another nonissue.
The phrase is mostly used by "progressive" gaming "journalists" and also crybaby critics who, as a paid profession, record and splice themselves bitching into video gaming content, footage of which they stole from other YouTube users, and post it back up on YouTube for fun, profit, and feminist asspats.
History
Coined by some lesbian feminist film critic (believably enough, that's her actual job description) named Laura Mulvey in the 70's, to explain why she would clutch her pearls about movies showing too much skin, entirely due to morality and totally not her own insecurity. The phrase started catching on with other women who were insecure about their bodies; i.e., damn near all of them. By the time video games became popular enough for the fun police to take notice, the phrase started to be used broadly in those circles as a strawman argument to make men feel bad about their original sin, male privilege.
