I`ve found a good documentation which deals with the images of pop music videos and its influence to our views on sexuality or gender roles in general.

Dreamworlds 3, the highly anticipated update of Sut Jhally's groundbreaking Dreamworlds 2 (1995), examines the stories contemporary music videos tell about girls and women, and encourages viewers to consider how these narratives shape individual and cultural attitudes about sexuality.

Illustrated with hundreds of up-to-date images, Dreamworlds 3 offers a unique and powerful tool for understanding both the continuing influence of music videos and how pop culture more generally filters the identities of young men and women through a dangerously narrow set of myths about sexuality and gender. In doing so, it inspires viewers to reflect critically on images that they might otherwise take for granted.

is it just "sex sells"...? imo these music videos are kind of education for children or teenagers and i think its not the best influence at all. im not prudish but these images are like a soft porn. and its not just the videos; songs like pokerface from lady gaga are about oral sex (poke her face)

or the song "if you seek amy" from britney sounds like "F.U.C.K. Me" (or I only hear what I want to hear Smile

)

what do you think about it? Question

i will be watching them tonight..yes it is soft porn..i am always horny after a saturday morning of music videos (joking guys)

im not prude either but poker face is blatant..kanye sings it i think..its always the sex..put it this way..its more of a shock when you see a vid that doesnt have skin and tit in it eh?

its all about lowering our levels or morals..so we accept anything..always pushing the young ages up and through..exposing to them in anyway they can
