Cahun's images reveal an unconscious experience where the conventional performativity of gender is contested. In contrast, Surrealist images for the most part, confirm cultural notions of "female." This can be seen in photographs by Man Ray such as Lee Miller (1929), where a focus is placed on Miller's neck and, as a result, the female form appears phallic.

[Catherine Bell], a professor at the University of Alberta's law school in Edmonton who specializes in Aboriginal and intercultural issues, said one of the biggest flash points in Aboriginal/non-Aboriginal relations will be the reclamation of sacred objects.
