Sandbox / Male Gaze Wick Check

Go To

I feel that recently Male Gaze has become, like Shes Got Legs, a bit ambiguous. According to the Laconic page it's supposed to be when a female's body is deliberately drawn attention to. But many of the examples I find basically amount to "We see many shots of her butt." and that's it. I would like to propose readjusting the trope to make it less for unintentional cases.

Wicks checked: Progress/Minimum Required.

    Correct use per trope page's description (X/Total, %) 
  • Checked Page: The example with the trope wicked, copied verbatim. Checker's personal comment
  • ...
    Other usage categories (X/Total, %) 
  • (Each category needs a separate folder depending on the alleged issue, like misuse, alternative interpretations of the trope, misplacements, potential splits, and etc)
    ZCE and Unclear use (X/Total, %) 
  • (Lack of context is also a valid reason to believe there is a systematic problem)
    Non-tropes, like a wick in an index page (X/Total, %) 
  • (Many prefer to test few extra wicks since this category is rarely useful)
    Unsorted 
  • Characters.DC Super Hero Girls 2019: Unbelievably, she has a big butt compared to her other friends. This is most noticeable when Kara is in her civilian identity either in profile or behind her.
