Robert J. Corber opines that “Miraim represents the sexually “deviant” woman demonized by cold-war political discourse because she refuses to restrict her sexuality to the privatized space of the nuclear family. The subject of her own desire, she circulates freely among men. She returns the male gaze rather than submitting to it passively and refuses to function as an object of Guy’s desire and his alone. The scenes in which Bruno follows her at the amusement park are constructed in such a way

Anita praises America including the material pleasures of the country and the freedom which one, especially women have in the country.

biological, organs, reproductive and environmental factors. Whether the person is male or female, they have their own sense and physical idea about the sexual identity. Have you ever given much basic idea to your own insight, desires, or way of life as a sexual being? Most people haven’t thought about that.
