Transcript

00:00If you are using your body to gather attention,

00:04if gathering male attention has become very important to you,

00:09then it is not a good psychological state to be in.

00:13And please remember, I am not saying this as an advocate of the male population.

00:19I am saying this as a friend of the woman.

00:23I am asking her, why is the male sight or the male gaze so important to you?

00:29If you want attention from people, if you want respect from people,

00:34why can't it be for higher reasons?

00:38Why do you want them to look at you because you have a sexy figure?

00:43Remember, if you want men to look at just your body,

00:48they would actually be always looking down at you.

00:51But if people, men or women, look at you because of your qualities,

00:56they would always be looking up to you.
