Representations of Men and Women



In this video we see a clear representation of women through camera shots and angles.
There are cutaway shots of women in bikinis and we see a peep hole effect where the audience are teased with images of these women.



In this Madonna video it can be argued that she almost objectifies herself - controlling how much the men see at her show. However it can also be seen that she is empowering women through the fact that she is the dominant person controlling how much she allows them to see.
