Thank you for reading, kb.

To clarify, when I say “Brahmin Erotic Gaze”, I am referring not just to how Brahmins look at the object of their desire, but a system of looking and touching developed in Brahminism that is about caste power. So when you say “dalit erotic gaze”, I can only ask is there an equivalent system of looking and touching that is about Dalit power? Is it a power-resistant gaze?

To me the revolutionary resistance to the Brahmin gaze is an anti-caste gaze, which is emancipatory for women and men, sexually, socially and politically. What that looks like and exemplifies, I believe can only come from a feminism emerging out of anti-caste/Ambedkarite foundations.
