The Voyeurism theoy is based on the belief that in some media there is a notion of looking. Sometimes, this can be portrayed in a sexual way, especially towards women.
Women can often be portrayed as objects or they are presented as being shown just to look at. This theory is also applied to some music videos as some objectify and sexualise women. An example of this Katy Perry and Snoop Dogs video, California Girls. Katy Perry in the video is shown sporting a two piece bikini and long with other women and also shown completely naked (whilst lying on 'clouds'.
It's been that bad that some videos have been completely banned, cut and censored for extreme cases of this presentation of women. I have not used Voyeurism in my music video as this theory doesn't apply to my genre of music or any indie band videos.
