Chrystalina Evert Love Or Lust Analysis

Improved Essays
The video, Love or Lust?, with Jason and Chrystalina Evert is about them explaining how we as a society are blinded by lust. They go further in depth about how young people are pressured to have sex for all the wrong reasons. They also reassure the audience by telling them that it is never too late to practice chastity and doing so can lead to a happy life that is full of love. I agreed with almost everything that was said in the video. One point that struck me was when they said girls are seduced through their ears and guys are seduced through their eyes. This struck me because I have experienced this and have also seen this done to others. I’ve seen many of my friends believe what guys tell them and decide to give themselves to them. As

    This documentary "Dreamworlds- Desire, Sex, and Power in music Videos" tries to explain how the popular culture influences contemporary music video and how this is affecting today’s culture. “Dreamworlds” insists that these narratives and cultural attitudes have shaped these music videos into sexualizing women, and filtering the identities of both men and women into “myths” about sexuality and gender. The subject group in these music videos tended to be mostly about women and how they are misrepresented and used in popular culture. Overall I agree with the film message that these music videos are misleading and only demonstrated with one point of view in which the audience can see through.

Artists often use figurative, metaphorical, and poetic elements in their songs to help develop the overall message. The use of figurative terms in a song leaves the interpretation of the song broad and allows the listener to have their own meaning of the song.…
