Is this the “female gaze” you guys speak of?

[MasterEscapist]

I was hanging out with a female friend I’d known since middle school a weekend ago. our relationship is purely platonic because she according to her “just doesn’t see me that way” but she made a comment that left me thinking.

As we were waiting for the elevator I removed my glasses to clean the lenses with my shirt and she said “you really need to get rid of those glasses bro, you look more attractive without them, plus they make your eyes look small”.

I’d add a lifefuel flair instead but I’m friendzoned so I don’t really think this counts as lifefuel. However I think her comment helps since it gives me perspective on how other women might perceive my looks. Is this the female gaze or something else?

Yeah it’s brutal. wouldn’t the looksmax be to simply forgo the glasses and switch to contacts? I think she’d still give some mental gymnastics even I stopped wearing glasses, lmao

Depends on the glasses for the amount of looksmin. Chad can get away with it you can't.

I mean.. not too comfortable posting a pic of myself on here but to give you an idea, two years ago I met up with this girl from bumble at her college dorm, we cuddled a bit and she said i was “pretty” while caressing my hair and straddling me. Kind of emasculating comment but whatever. Maybe I am cutecel
