Laura Mulveys Theory


Laura Mulvey

Laura Mulveys theory is that in most music videos, men are portrayed as more dominant and the women are objects. We nearly always are watching from a males point of view, meaning we are always judging the girls through a male stand point as the girls are normally always dressed to appeal to the male gender.

Pitbull - hotel room service is a good example of this, The girls are all dressed in very revealing clothing. the camera starts of with a shot of a woman's behind . the whole video consists of girls being dismembered by the camera while Pitbull is look very classy and in a suit as if he is the boss, the more dominant one.
