Nexplanon Video Analysis

Decent Essays
I chose to pick the prescription drug Nexplanon. The generic is Etonogestrel Implant. It is birth control in the form of an implant that is placed in the upper arm. Nexplanon provides birth control continuously for 3 years. Since the Nexplanon is mainly only implanted into females, the video’s target audience was a female audience. The makers of the video used women who appear strong, independent and have no space for a pregnancy in their busy lives. The video tries to get into the heads of the target audience and make them think about whether, for the next 3 years, pregnancy is a part of their life plan or not. They use different female characters in different scenarios. For example, there is one female who just got a new job and is not thinking

    Science is emphasized in the Plan B One-Step drug advertisement by analyzing women through the use of the macro level. The macro level is interested in scientifically stopping pregnancy by providing women with an emergency contraceptive that can stop fertilization from occurring (Haase, 2016, p. 15). Thus, the ad does not identify women as more than biological beings through a holistic a. In keeping with the importance of science in this ad, many of the terms used are medically and scientifically based. This is done to create a divide between health care providers and female consumers (Love, 1994, p. 19). By doing so, physicians are able to maintain the authority and power over women.…

    Coming in to this course, I did not know what to expect due to the fact that I have never taken a women and gender studies course. Now that we are at the end of the course and I am able to reflect on what I have learned, I believe that the topic that I was most interested in and learned the most about was reproductive rights. While reflecting on what I have learned regarding reproductive rights, I will be discussing: the dangers that women experienced without forms of contraceptives, important people who aided in the fight for legal contraceptives as well as the creation of a birth control pill, and the battle to legalize contraceptives. First, there were many dangers that women experienced during the time when forms of contraceptives…

    Although the video was a bit slow paced, I enjoyed watching it. It was very informative and encompassed many aspects of BioTherapies. I enjoyed listening to Dr. Taylor discuss trepanation. One of my favorite television series, Teen Wolf, featured a man who had drilled a hole in his own head and I can vaguely remember that term being used. Now, I actually know what it means.…

    And there’s a big impact on that socioeconomic status where there’s this role of husband and wife. It’s a real-life problem in today’s society. The husband is going out being unloyal and the wife knows that but because of society, the wife is supposed to forgive the husband for his indecent acts even if it hurts her. I think the artists want to show that this is a recurring problem in today’s society and he has done it quite well with the lyrics and the video showing pathos, ethos, and…

    As casual and premarital sex has become socially acceptable today, birth control has become an essential practice in our society, and the demand and the need for birth control is only rising. A birth control pill is the most commonly used contraceptive method in the United States today. What makes a birth control pill outstanding among all contraceptive methods is its failure rate; less than 1 out of 100 women will get pregnant each year if used properly. It is the lowest failure rate among all contraceptive methods besides sterilization. With its effectiveness and convenience, a birth control pill has won its popularity over the past few decades.…

    In the text of the song, Thicke is making the argument that women need to be domesticated to protect themselves from their fragile, dumb, animalistic nature, yet this music video only seems to provide evidence that it is actually the men who have much to learn in order to prevent their animalistic nature from taking over as it does in the music video in the form of a predator versus prey scenario. These older, financially stable men are seen preying on these innocent, child-like women who supposedly can’t care for themselves which supports the notion that the men are actually the problem and they should be kept far away from any woman rather than being the dominant protector like Thicke is attempting to convey they should. Unfortunately, though, the popularity of the song itself and the video proves that Thicke’s perception on gender roles is one that is supported by many people. The notion of men as the protectors of women has been present for a good portion of history, but with feminist movements becoming more and more present and talked about it is sad to see the big players in pop music, such as Robin Thicke, Pharrell Williams, and T.I., supporting the domestication of women which thus supports the loss of women’s rights. When young, impressionable girls and boys heard this song on the radio or…

    Pregnancy is a beautiful thing for many individuals. For some it is a dreadful accident that was never intended to happen. In many instances pregnancy can be avoided by taking the necessary precautions to prevent the birth of a child. Although these individuals like to believe that birth control will one hundred percent prevent you from getting pregnant, but this is certainly not the case. The one true form of contraception from pregnancy is abstinence, but today abstinence is being seen less in individuals in their teen years to the time they begin to settle down.…

    Lyrics like “My persuasion can build a nation” and “You will do anything for me” cast women in an inactive role even though they are supposedly in control. Rather than actually building a nation or doing things for themselves, these lyrics imply that women simply “persuade” others (presumably men) to do their bidding. This focus on passiveness comes from emphasized femininity, which stresses compliance and inaction for women (Williams Lecture, 10/20/15). The video also presents traditional stereotypes for men. The men of the rival group are dressed in military garb and wield weapons, representing the glorification of violence associated with hyper-masculinity.…
