Scarlett Johansson’s regret is a direct criticism of Hollywood’s <\/span>gender double standards :<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

  • “Feeling I Had to Measure Up” <\/span>:<\/span><\/i> Her<\/span><\/b> admission suggests that the motivation wasn’t just professional, but rather <\/span>gendered pressure<\/span><\/b> to prove that an actress could be both <\/span>functional strength<\/span><\/b> and <\/span>desirability<\/span><\/b> as required by <\/span>the Male Gaze<\/span><\/i> .<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
  • The Transformation:<\/span><\/b> Her liberation came when she changed her training philosophy to <\/span>“performance-based, not aesthetic-based<\/span><\/b> ,” placing functional strength over extreme leanness.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
