\"\"<\/p>\n

Music is seen as an expressive tool where individuals can express their emotions. We often use music for many different purposes e.g. aesthetic appreciation or religious worship. However, music is often a battlefield for gender and inequality issues. Gender stereotyping is not a new phenomenon in music. During the 1980s, the majority of women in music videos were dressed sexily (Gow, 1996) while men\u00a0 are seen as masculine figures and carry hegemonic masculinity.<\/p>\n

How Males are portrayed in the songs sung by artists <\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/strong><\/p>\n

When listening to music, especially songs sang by female singers, it comes as un surprising that men are portrayed as having all the power. The lyrics \u201cI\u2019ll be a\u00a0 fearless leader and I\u2019d be an alpha type\u2019\u2019 (The Man, Taylor Swift), shows that the\u00a0 image of a top manager in society includes a successful man with a strong\u00a0 masculine presence (Acker, 1990). Messner (2000) supported this view stating that\u00a0 men usually hold position e.g. head coach and assistant coach.<\/p>\n

Male are also seen as more privileged than females, as they are usually \u2018\u2019ranking in\u00a0 dollars, and getting bitches and models\u2019\u2019 (The man, Taylor Swift). This shows that\u00a0 men are like free spirit animals who constantly search for dreams and living the best\u00a0 of their life (Hyden & McCandless ,1983). And, lyrics \u2018I\u2019d be just like Leo in Saint\u00a0 Tropez\u2019 (The Man, Taylor Swift) shows that men are like playboys, and Leonardo\u00a0 DiCaprio (fun fact\u2026 Leo has a reputation for flirting with different girls, he always\u00a0 takes his girl friends to have fun in Saint Tropez).<\/p>\n

Aside from that, men are portrayed as capable of breaking women’s hearts (shame\u00a0 on them\u2026.). This is demonstrated in lyrics “How’s your heart after breaking mine?” (Taylor Swift, Mr. Perfectly Fine), the female singer was devastated after being left by a guy. Similarly, another lyric \u2018\u2019Pretends he doesn\u2019t know that he\u2019s the reason why you\u2019re drowning\u2026.\u2019\u2019 (Taylor Swift, \u2018I know you were trouble) conveys the same\u00a0 message. Men being a heartbreaker can be linked to Click and Kramer (2007)\u2019s view\u00a0 that women are perceived to be the ones who constantly have their hearts broken\u00a0 and wish for shooting stars.<\/p>\n

How females are portrayed in the songs\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

If men are usually seen as powerful and masculine? Does that mean women are\u00a0 being seen to having the same characteristics as well??<\/p>\n

Well\u2026 the answer is probably not. Women are typically portrayed as fragile and\u00a0 weak in songs sung by female singers, as they tend to break down more than men\u00a0 after a relationship ends. This is evident in lyrics \u2018Everything that I do reminds me of\u00a0 you, and the clothes you left, they smell just like you\u2019 (Avril Lavigne, when you\u2019re\u00a0 gone). This showed that women were unable to let go of the men and she still\u00a0 believes that the clothes he left smelled like him. Therefore, women are seen as\u00a0 weak and needy (Lisara ,2014).<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Other than that, in songs sung by male singers, women are viewed as objects that\u00a0 are constantly being view by men. Sexual objectification occurred through body\u00a0 representation e.g. sexy clothing, body parts (Flynn et al, 2016). This can be seen in\u00a0 lyrics, \u2018\u2019Missing more than just your body\u2019\u2019 (Justin Bieber, sorry), \u2019Everyone else in\u00a0 the room can see it, everyone else but you\u2019\u2019 (One Direction\u2019s What makes you\u00a0 beautiful). These lyrics have shown that man has missed the body of the female he\u00a0 is speaking of ,and it also indicates that a woman\u2019s body is still meant to be touched, even if the man doesn\u2019t deserve it due to his mistakes. Once again, female is being\u00a0 seen as object more than male artists (Flynn et al, 2016).<\/p>\n

However, women are not always seen to be portrayed as weak and sexy figures.\u00a0 Songs that are mostly sung by female artists themselves try to fight against\u00a0 marginalization and push for equal rights as well as empowering women (Nwabueze,\u00a0 2019). Lyrics \u2018\u2019I don\u2019t need a man to be holding me too tight\u2019 (Kesha, women) \u2018\u2019She\u2019s\u00a0 on top of the world, hottest of the hottest girls\u2019\u2019 (Alicia Keys, Girl on fire) showed that\u00a0 women can live a better live by themselves. This is in consistent with Nwabueze\u00a0 (2019)\u2019s findings that women are seen to be able to rule and bring positive changes to the world. Yet, we can also argue that only songs sung by female artists are able\u00a0 to portrayed woman in a positive way. \"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

To our future<\/strong>☺<\/p>\n

Men and women are portrayed differently as we live in a world where certain\u00a0 activities are classified as masculine or feminine (West & Zimmerman, 1987).\u00a0 Therefore, we can see that gender is socially scripted and that men and women\u00a0 must perform a set of performances in order to fit into society.<\/p>\n

I think it is crucial for us to achieve gender inequality in our society as young adults\u00a0 always listens to pop music. Music will influence their perceptions of relationship, sex and gender roles. As a result, the music industry has a big impact on gender\u00a0 construction. To achieve gender equality, I believe more female composers and\u00a0 singers as well as more positive lyrics about women are needed.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

(<\/strong>life is not only about competition; it is also about\u00a0 collaboration between men and women, therefore, men and women must be treated\u00a0 equally)<\/p>\n
