Not to judge you, but this media is not really targeted at men, like my mom couldn't tell you what she had for dinner last night but you ask her about Billie Eilish, she'll start rattling off, my mom is a 50+ year old woman and Bill is like 19 or something
I'm not promoting these videos by any stretch. In fact, the second video is totally anathema and I have rules against viewing it myself, however, I figure most people are 18+. These videos should be age-restricted.
Secondly, art is art, which means it up to the individual audience to interpret the meaning of it. For example, Billie Elish video about the snake represents debt with me. If you have allot of debt the interest can squeeze the life out of you and you feel you can never get out of debt and enjoy the vastness of financial freedom. That's my interpretation of the video. Do I care about the lyrics or what she is trying to say? Not really. Obviously if I did, I'd probably not enjoy the video or dismiss it as another Stacey singing BS about Chad because I'm not going to care if I already feel overlooked right?
Your mother and my mother are totally different. I would never show such a video to my mother or she would think something is wrong with me. That video is almost like pure evil to have a snake go around your neck like that. You would think the girl is possessed or has allot of demons to do a stunt like that.
However, to say the videos are not artistic or have some resonance in my own memories of my ex-gf of summer-2012, would not be easy for me to dismiss it as some modern feminism in art. I don't interpret it that way and just enjoy the video. In fact, it feels like my folks are nosing around if I play that video and I hide it from them.
Both videos are like pure evil. One video has an Anaconda snake going around a girls neck that could kill her? The second video depicts women committing suicide. Did these women make a deal with the devil in exchange for fame or something like that? Aren't these videos just evil?
