Voyeurism

By Sonia De Abreu

What is voyeurism?

“ In clinical voyeurism is the sexual interest in or practice of spying on people

engaged in intimate behaviors, such as undressing, sexual activity, or other activity usually considered to be of a

private nature.”

Examples

In many music videos the main focus is on girls and the thing men love most, their midriff, chest, bottom and close up of face and orgasmic facial expressions. The act of looking at

these things gives the feeling of sexual pleasure and makes people want to see more of the music video. It demonstrates

to the viewer the status of these artists by illustrating that they can get any girl they want, and these girls are not far from perfection with everything in perfect shape and form which is exactly what men like to watch on television. This

lures in an audience making a song much more interesting. It is very hard nowadays to find a music video that doesn’t focus on at least one of these body parts. Most genres do and this

could be arguably what makes them successful.
