According to the movie, Dream Worlds II which emphasizes desire, sex, and power in music video, women in music television inhabit a fantasy land or "Dream World" where the norms of femininity are nymphomania and dependence on and subservience to men. In this dream world, women outnumber men, attraction is instant, and sex happens spontaneously and without courtship. All men are promised sexual gratification, including the viewer. .
This dream world explicitly ties up in the fantasy life of heterosexual males. The heterosexual male fantasies of seeing women in their underwear, looking down women's shirts and up their skirts, and engaging in casual and erotic touch with multiple women are played out in plot lines and camera work in the dream world. These sorts of "stories" about women's sexuality, while undeniably successful from a marketing perspective, have major consequences in the real world. They encourage men to think of women primarily as sexual objects without subjectivity and encourage women to value themselves only if they can attract the gaze or advances of men. The dream world also often turns women's bodies into objects dismembering them with excessive focus on just one part of the body. This highly dehumanizes women giving them a message that they"re just a pair of legs or breasts and not human beings with real emotions. Therefore, women become very susceptible to violence. Men get the message that women are basically nothing and after all it's okay to push violence on just a mere object, right??? .
I undoubtedly agree that the media shapes our perceptions of reality. If it didn't, there most likely wouldn't be as many rapes, women wouldn't be or feel so devalued, and most likely wouldn't worry so much about how they look in the presence of men. In a society where women are constantly portrayed as sexy, wild, nympho-nothings, how could our reality remain undistorted?.
The media is teaching women from a young age that if we can't attract a man and satisfy his every need, we are nothing.
