Laura Mulvey believes that the world is imbalanced as it is male dominated where they appear to be the active figures and the females are passive figures. In music videos, they have created this fantasy of women being used as objects and desire. Therefore, this theory explains how its expected to see females in sexual representations such as wearing little clothing and suggestive body language in music videos as if the viewer are looking through a males point of view. The genres thats appear to show sexualised females the most are included in RnB, Rap and Hip Hop. Being a male, I agree with Mulvey's theory as it is becoming more clearer each day with the latests videos. Both genders seem to constantly use sexual representations in their videos more and more each day that it seems normal to see woman being shown as objects.
