Masculinity

 

masculinity is Less of an issue than it was in the past as artists like lady gaga constantly challenge the conventions of this.

The male gender have very little “self-pride” in comparison to women this means the distance between the two genders when it come to a music video is great. For example gaga is the most extreme female artist out there in my opinion, and she hasn’t exposed nearly as much as most male artists the most extreme currently is the song by Robby Williams in rock dj. 

Men are often seen to be the dominate sex and so are often portrayed like this until recently when both Rihanna and lady gaga have had male dancers. And in Gaga's video the male dancers were in female clothing.

Men represented in positive way so not brought up

One thing however men are judged much more harshly for being feminine than women are for being very masculine. This is only not true when glam rock is involved, glam rockers are overtly feminine or masculine, however their extremely open sexuality counteracts the feminine or masculine character.
