The internalized male gaze is the act of depicting women in f.ex. movies and literature by hetero sexual men. Every woman is influenced by it everyday, because they have this male voyeurism inside their mind. Since the rise of kinks ( everything can be a kink/ many kinks are normalized) and the oversexualization of woman, there’s no space which isn’t influenced by it. Everything a woman does could cater a male viewer, which is in the basic form, what society to this day forces on women. This whole process is for the majority more on a subconscious level.
The line between the free will and the internalized male gaze is fluent and many woman can’t tell the difference anymore between ‘what do I like?’ And ‘what attracts men?’, because it’s been taught to them through movies, through their parents and the media that they should please men.

The way hollywood is showing Megan fox fixing a car in the transformer movie is a prime example of the internalized male gaze, since she can’t even repair a car without being sexualized.

When you and your significant other go into a room and take off all of your clothes but you don’t do anything. You just stare at each others naked bodies, you don’t even make out.

Lowering your gaze is simple: avoid looking at the opposite gender, the past of others they don’t want you to see, things that incite jealousy, and things that anger you. This concept can be applied in many ways, but it’s a command in our deen: "O believing men, lower your gaze." Think of it as keeping your head down and getting to work—don't focus on others; focus on yourself.
