Popular music...Women & Sexiness
Todays popular music is all about misogyny, matrtialism, and murder. In most hip-hop music it refers to women as being bitches and disrespects women. In music videos the women are always extremly skinny and beautiful. You never see bigger or not so good looking women in a music video. Younger girls may look at these videos and think this is the only way to look and try to look like the women on the videos. I believe music videos is one of the sources that make younger girls feel so inscure about there bodies and go to dramatic lengths to be more like the women they see in videos. Also the way women are refered to as, like bitches, younger girls may watch this and think that is okay when a man refers to them in that kind of manner. I believe that popular music can suggest a lot of bad things and people can take them as a good thing and try to work towards what they see and hear in poular music.

You wrote in your last post that hip-hop was all about "misogyny, materialism, and murder," so if popular music focuses on these things, are you saying that all popular music is hip-hop? Country music is certainly very popular. Would you put that into this same category?
