 Pink dramatizes gender-based violence in this music video. Tags: gender, health/medicine, inequality, violence, domestic violence, gender violence, masculinity, partner abuse, power relations, sexualizing violence, 00 to 05 mins Year: 2009 Length: 3:53 Access: YouTube Summary: What do you think of when you hear "gender-based violence"? While the term gender-based violence is primarily associated with men inflicting violence towards women and girls, it is important to analyze why the reversed scenario—women inflicting violence towards men—is often disregarded. Pink's video "Please Don't Leave Me" is a stark example of the way that gender-based violence towards men is perceived as somehow less serious than men inflicting violence towards women. This video is centered around Pink's various (violent) attempts to prevent her partner from leaving. She keeps her partner as a prisoner in her house and relentlessly begs him to stay. It is important to note that gender-based violence disproportionately affects women because of unequal power relations between men and women. For instance, women account for 85% of domestic violence victims in the United States. Questions to consider alongside the video include: Why is it that we do not see a problem (or see less of a problem) when a woman physically and/or emotionally abuses a man? Why do some people perceive gender-based violence against men as humorous? Might this affect the number of men who report gender-based violence? What are some examples of violent actions and/or language in this video? (e.g., "I can cut you into pieces," "You're my perfect little punching bag.") Does Pink try to make violence sexy? Is sexualizing violence problematic? Would people be more critical of this video if the characters' genders were reversed? It may be helpful to clearly define gender-based violence so that students can critically analyze the video according to accepted definitions of what qualifies as gender-based violence. Gender-based violence of any kind is unacceptable and should not be used as a form of entertainment. As a society, we should actively speak out against images that work to normalize violent behavior.

I watched the music video and was appalled. Violence of any kind toward any gender should not be portrayed as cute, loving, or somehow twisted to be an endearing trait to pursue. 5/27/2022 04:46:03 pm
I love pink and I've been listening to her music for a long time and the song I never really saw the video till now and really watchd the whole thing. I was also quite offended and Disturbed. My comment is if this video had roll reversals, would have been allowed to be made or played that's just the truth. It doesn't change my view of pink I just questioned her artist decision on this one. Maybe she didn't think the whole thing through. 5/27/2022 04:47:39 pm
I'm saying the video would NOThave been allowed to be made OR PLAYED

I suffered from what they called peripheral artery disease (PAD). I have been suffering for years, Me and my wife searched for a medical cure, and then we came across a testimony of a man who suffered the same and was cured by Dr Chief Lucky. So my wife and I contacted Dr Chief Lucky via an email and thank God he replied. I explained what was wrong and he sent me herbal medicines that helped heal me completely.

I just want to say Thank You to everyone who supported me through the years. My name is Manuel Franco, New Berlin, Wisconsin. My story of how I won the Powerball lottery of $768.4M is a bit of a tale. I have been playing Powerball tickets for 6 years now since I turned 18. I bought my first ticket on my 18 birthday. I was feeling very lucky that day because I had contacted Dr. Odunga Michael to help me with the winning Powerball numbers. I really had that great great feeling that I looked at the camera wanting to wink at it. I only did a tiny part of it and trusted him. He gave me the numbers after I played a couple other tickets along with it for $10. I checked my ticket after the winnings came online and saw the numbers were correct including the Power play. I screamed for about 10 minutes because it felt like a dream. I had won $768.4M. You can check my winning testimony with the lottery officials just with my name search. Thank you Dr Odunga. Well, his email is [email protected] and you can also call or Whats-app him at +2348167159012 so you guys can contact him

My herpes cure testimonial. I was once a victim of the herpes virus with many epidemics on my body, I also have cold sores, I was cured of the virus thanks to the help of Doctor Afrid the herbal medicine man. I have come across most of his testimonials from patients on blogs and social media pages who have recovered from various illnesses. I contacted him with his email address which he answered and asked me a few questions and the preparation method I paid for, he sent me some herbal remedies and with his prescription I have drank herbal remedies for 2 weeks and the outbreaks on my body were cured after concluding herbal medicine, I went for the test and my result was negative with no virus on my blood. You can also be cured, contact him on his official email; [email protected]. or add him on WhatsApp +2349153512788 He said he had a herbal remedy for diabetes, cancer, fibroids, high blood sugar, hepatitis, HIV, heart disease and liver disease.

I am amazed by Dr Ogbo herbal remedy. I Have had herpes for over 6 years with frequent outbreaks. Sometimes average 2-3 times per month. Before one breakout could end, the next would begin. Nothing has helped me. I came online in search for a possible way to see how I can fight this virus so I found Dr Ogbo here online after seeing a lot of testimonies of how he cured herpes and other diseases with natural herbs so I decided to give it a try, I only took his remedy for two weeks and I was completely cured. I recommend Dr Ogbo remedy to anyone suffering from herpes that wants to be completely cured too. email: [email protected] and for quick response Message him on his whatsapp number +2348110968476
