This seemed really familiar to me and then I remembered every Disney movie. The princess is connected to nature and animals, and the prince finds her.
I find it interesting that it's noted "that there is no gender-neutral term to convey the idea of a person who achieves gloire." (p.181) Great man is the highest level of success, so even people who don't identify with the male sex or gender want to reach that level but aren't able to. There should be a new word/s for a person reaching a high level of success created by the marginalized people! Then there will be great people other than just the cis-male.
I see that there's this double standard again for female artists. A soft touch to painting and an artificial/decorative style was seen as feminine. Where as a strong touch of and a natural/truthful style of painting was seen as masculine. But if you painted too soft your skills were completely dismissed and on the other hand if you had a "masculine" touch to painting it was praised. Labille-Guiard was labeled a man because of her painting style.

It's interesting how they mention film theory, because I'm taking a film class right now and we talked about how the person facing or not facing the camera evokes different emotions. A person is in profile when they are looking at the frame from the left or the right, so half of their face is visible and the other half is not.This makes it seem as if the person is unaware of being observed, or lost in his or her own thoughts.

I think it's important to note that this writing is coming from a female perspective instead of a male.
