The veiwer
Page 52: "Women are depicted in a quite different way from men - not because the feminine is different from the masculine - but because the 'ideal' spector is always assumed to be male and the image of women is designed to flatter him."
Page 52: "Then notice the violence which that transformation does. Not to the image, but to the assumptions of a likely viewer."
ie: Men cannot handle being viewed as a sexual object, it is seen as violent. Therefore, must always maintain the role as the viewer.

Naked vs Nude
Page 51: "This nakedness is not, however, an expression of her own feelings; it is a sign of her submission to the owner's feelings or demands."
Reminds me of how some men make really public marriage proposals to socially submit their partner into agreeing.
Page 51: "In his book on The Nude Kenneth Clark maintains that to be naked is simply to be without clothes, whereas the nude is a form of art."
Page 51: "It is not suffienceint to answer these questions merely in terms of the art-form, for it is quite clear that the nude also relates to lived sexuality."
