Sex – Cheat codes x Kris Kross Amsterdam
Firstly, at 0:05 it instantly shows a close
image of a woman walking in slow motion wearing a tight dress. This straight
away is Implying something provocative and sexualizing the woman. At 0:10 it
then highlights this more, by having the woman bend over slightly to open the
door.
Next, the woman enters a sex ed class as
the teacher and the idea of the male gaze is clearly evident when the men are
shown clearly staring at the womans bum and presenting shocked faces.
The video follows on by having a sequence
of close up shots showing the teacher doing sexual things such as biting her
lip and the camera zooms into her bum again.
After this, the woman turns around and is
seen to be wearing a very low cut top which exposes her chest and once again
the students (who are all male) are zoomed into and show very pleased and
attracted faces.
At 0:39, the video steps it up even more,
and has the woman sitting on all fours on the table which is possibly recreating
a sexual position with a pencil in her mouth. This follows by having the
lighting go darker around the woman and boy
and her hair begins to blow while she seduces the boy by beckoning him
with her finger. This could be reflecting the boys fantasies and his mind of
what he wants the teacher for as he is then shown with eyes closed presenting a
face of being pleasured, though comes back to reality when the teacher is
writing ‘masturbation’ on the board.
What follows on
from this is all highly sexual and has slow motion shots of the woman putting
some white lubricant or sort on her hand which may reference semen. It also
then has close up images of her putting a condom on a banana which the woman is
all clearly doing to attract the boys, aswell as her suggestive and sexual
looks she is constantly doing. The men in the video then are shown with biting
lips and being attracted to the woman because of what she is doing. To a male
audience this would be seen as attractive, though to many women it could be seen
as over the top and unnecessary.
Also,
the video then goes on to have several almost sexual innuendos which are
accompanied by using foods and such to act out these sexual acts. The whole
time to the audience this is very provocative and has many times where there
are close ups of her with her finger on her lips and such which all to a male
suggest the woman is trying to look naughty to the men.
Furthermore,
there are many shots once again that show the men staring at the womans bum in
shock and pleasure. This then, suggests how the men can be so easily set into
trance by the women by something so simple. To the audience then, this could
show how women are in control and have sexual power over men.
Finally, an interesting point about this
music video, is that before the woman walks in at the start, the men seem so
bored and disinterested though once an attractive woman walks in they can’t
take their eyes off her and follow her every command without hesitation. Once
again, this reinforces the idea that women can take a hold of men so easily,
though to the audience this could seem empowering of women to some though degrading
also as it suggests that the only way men will follow women is through sexual
acts.
