Can anyone explain what 'male watching' exactly means? Is the woman supposed to stalk the male or is she supposed to have a crush on the male?

[Lisa Kay, Tinker Bell]

Ipshita wrote: "Can anyone explain what 'male watching' exactly means? Is the woman supposed to stalk the male or is she supposed to have a crush on the male?"

Any woman that watches and admires a male - or a specific part of his body. Maybe the heroine checks out the hero's butt? Or maybe you just like the guy on the cover?

[Lisa Kay, Tinker Bell]

Woohoo! Congrats, Ipshita!
