In the era of new media,our lives are constantly being engulfed by visual images.This is especially true in the phenomenon of webcasting with the gaze mechanism as the core.For a long time,traditional camp scholars such as Mulvey and Sophie have pessimistically believed that women are inevitably exposed to the gaze of men's hot,anticipation and even discipline,and their social status is secondary.His research accurately portrays the frustration and depreciation experienced by women under the Phallocentrism order,which has important and vigilant insights into the living conditions of contemporary women.However,it ignores women's subjectivity and initiative level to a considerable extent,and regards them more as "passive others." The view that women are usually passive,actually ignores their trivial,daily,and cautious practice of resistance.In the past,livestream research involving a gender perspective usually discusses the tragic encounters of female anchors in large lengths,but there are only a few tacit reports about women's initiative,constructivity,and resistance,and a positive perspective on the issue of women's survival.Academic research is almost in a state of lack.Therefore,the author chose to use live-broadcast girls as the research object,and used the research methods of in-depth interviews and literature reviews to conduct a three-month investigation and research on this group.Finally,the conclusion is as follows: Although the live broadcast girls on the Internet are inevitably placed under the gaze of men's hotness,anticipation and even discipline,they follow the circuitous way of survival of strategic players more on the live broadcast platform.Actively "being stared" in order to gain influence and monetary rewards and rebuild subjectivity,showing a positive "resistance" meaning.
