I decided to write my essay on this image after having our in-class discussion. this photo holds so much meaning than someone just looking at it for the first time. at first, without reading the description I used my previous knowledge from Bergers episode 2 on how women were perceived during those times. “I am your worst fear” is directed towards men and “I am your best fantasy” relates to how women are men’s desires. in actual reality, you can say men feared women to a point that they would hate to see any women having more power over a man and also the myth of how men are supposed to be the “dominant” ones. after doing some research I realized she protesting for LGBTQ rights. this made sense to me in the way that men love the idea of seeing two women sexually involved, but hate to see them in an actual relationship and not with them. many lesbian coupes get degraded in public when groups of men want to see two women sexually involved and they get aggressive when you oppose it. a lot of LGBTQ couples get targeted for being different from the rest of society. I feel that this is a very important topic and is recent in today’s society.
