Sexism in the reggaeton
Most of the youth (myself included) listen regaeton. The large majority of them, if not all, talk about women, about the necessity and the desire of the singers in have sex with them. Summarizing, the songs talk about women as if they were a sexual object, as if they were a mere hobby.
I admit I listen this music, not the letter, buy by the rhythm. Also I have to add that this rhythm imitates the rhythm that carries while sex is practiced. The women dance it doing very provocatives dance moves, moving above the ass and the hips exaggerated, to the beat of the music. This way of dancing I think it's very pathetic and ridiculous for the woman herself, the simple fact that a woman is exposed in this way seems to me demeaning. I agree that women have to feel comfortable with their bodies and we should feel It, but here to be exposed as a sex toy...
Why these songs only speak of women? Why not speak also of sexual attractiveness of men? I think here would cross a barrier too ignored. In our society it is labeled to everyone, and this time men would be the satisfied and women would be the complacent.
Now i'm gonna show you some reggaeton songs. Judge for yourself...
