Dear Future Husband - Meghan Trainor

In the music video "dear future husband" it represents women as being quite dependent and needy of men this is shown through the audio code "tell me that I'm beautiful every night" and another which says audio code which says "buy me that ring" this suggests that women need the attention of men and want men to spend money and provide for them. This reinforces gender stereotypes as typically women are represesnted in the media like this. Creating the ideology that women are incapable of providing and making their selves happy. The Audience of predominantly women may feel quite angry that women have been represesnted in this way as it suggests that women just live off of their husbands and don't earn their own money. This is a quite regressive representation in today's media.

Another way women have been represented would be as house wives. This can be seen through out the music video as the muse en scene shows Meghan Trainor wearing a red and white check apron and going round her house doing multiple house chores. However some may argue that it is not representing her in this way as she is wearing leather and is doing her house work very badly. This both subverts and reinforces gender stereotypes as at first glance you think she is being the stereotypical house wife but when you actually look deeper in to In she is saying she can't do all the things that is expected of her. This creates the ideology that women shouldn't be expected to do all the house work.
