Your opinion on the representation of men in music videos?

lizzie-xm · 01-26-2010, 10:25 PM

hey all, just wanted to get your ideas and thoughts about how men are presented in music videos, especially in heavy metal music videos.

Like do you think that they are characterized or stereotyped in a aparticular way??

This isnt just random thinking, its for my media coursework, and i need your opinion for my primary research. Thanks loads xx

i get that feeling every single time i open a 'first guitar' thread.

should we wait a few days before actually having legit discussion on this so as to not do another person's homework?

then again men in metal videos always look super tough and extra angry. it's the only way to show the world how metal one truly is.

As you have the exact same IP address as Kimmage & Shanz23 who also happen to be asking us to do their homework i'll leave this thread to explain yourselves before I ban the lot of you.

uhhh...they are all related and share a common interest in the portrayal of either sex in their respective stereotypical music genres?

it could happen.

look the reason why we all have the same IP adress is because we are at school. We are not having people do our bloody homework what we are doing is gathering primary research on the opinions of people with regard to our essay questions. This is a requirement of the course that we have to carry this out you can look at the A2 AQA Media outline. We are taking the answers and analysing them. So it would be appriciated that you not ban us and re-open our threads please and just let people answer the damn questions.
