Britney Spears: Post feminist and Feminist views!
Britney Spears as an artist regularly portrays a rather sexy and dominating attitude through her music and appearance. Focusing on her video ‘I wanna go’ I am going to outline the different feminist and post feminist views that may be raised throughout the video.
Feminist view:
-This view would state that the video is a typical version of a bad representation of females.
-The main artist throughout the video is seen to use her minimal clothing and flirtatious nature to get males attention.
-the female artist flashes the male police officer to prevent getting a parking ticket this objectifies women and their bodies.
-The language used by the main artist would not be accepted.
Post Feminist view:
-A post feminist view of the video would be that is represents women in a positive light due to the fact that she is seen to be dominant an strong
-The video suggests the main artist has power over the male gender, there is an example of this when she groped the male in the video, this would stereotypically be done by male to a female.
-There is then a scene where the artist is seen to gain ‘powers’ and take down the paparazzi who are all males. This again is a representation of female dominance.
