#albeit VERY different approaches#doechii weaponizes the male gaze to disarm the viewer while talking about how dangerous she is. she is NOT the opp you want#it also articulates ''people underestimate me. they underestimate and objectify black women''#she uses the jackhammer correctly in over 100 degree heat in the desert. she's putting in WORK just like she is in her bars#there's also the ''i have to censor my own fucking chest because of societal norms'' and we cannot ignore that. the censoring is her doing#in this way. she also paradoxically holds agency in saying ''no. i won't let you see my breasts''#also i'm not an expert on blaxploitation films but doechii is absolutely pulling from those as well. esp with her Mandigo reference#CHANMINA on the other hand says. ''i am going to subvert every expectation you have of japanese women''#''you don't want to respect women who are larger. who wear makeup. who are pregnant. who are sex workers. who have tattoos.#you want us to be passive and quiet and conformist. and i reject this premise. women can do whatever they want.''#it rips the male gaze to shreds#flashing video
