A friend of mine showed me this video because they found it hilarious and immediately I thought of the Politics of Sex class and in the end instead of laughing along with him, I found myself appalled by music video. There are no words to the song since it is techno and yet, it shows women in a sexual way, but adds humor by making them all have faces of men and one who is really ugly. Why do some people find this kind of "sexual" humor funny? What is the point of sexualizing women in this way?
