- - - - Defense: It was published recently so the data has to be recent and relevant to the time period in which we are looking study. It's relevant to my article because it talks about women and their treatment in different genres of music which is what my research is about. Both authors work under a university, and as professors of music and media, they have to be well versed in what they're teaching and writing about. The information comes from old and new sources and the data hasn't shifted dramatically which means the data is consistent and reliable.
    - - Connection; This article and the K-pop article both talk about the male gaze and how it results in women being looked at as objects which is severely harmful to the women musicians while also being harmful to the people in society because these images, artworks, lyrics, etc. are statistically harmful to women.
  - - - Argument: For black women, they were always underrepresented either by their gender or by their race, they were never included in both. If they wanted to be recognized as women, white women were always the subject for feminism or femininity. In order to be recognized as black, it was always the black men who were being shown. Black women were just ignored and ostracized. When they finally weren't being ignored they were being used and abused for their talents. They were underpaid if paid at all, and had to work and live in horrible conditions. If they couldn't make it in the music industry, they worked factory jobs and were ridiculed for working there. There was never a place they were welcome or could relax. if they did something, they got hate for it and if they didn't, they still got hate for it. It was a gruelling cycle where they always lost. Men and white people always came out on top.
        
        Connection: Like in the K-pop article, men are the ones who benefit from the system. Black men got the recognition and a larger amount of freedom with their careers, while black women weren't even being treated like they had a say or a career. In K-pop women have no control over their image, their lyrics, their outfits, their diets, etc. while men have much more freedom to contribute to their group.
  - - - Argument: I want to talk about how women are forced to feel and look young. The infantilization is not only damaging to the ones experiencing it, but to the ones looking up to a woman in the industry. They are trained that aging is a bad thing and that they need to look young and innocent to have value, to have beauty, and to be wanted in the industry. It's dehumanizing and gives them the value of an object or collectible. The male gaze in Korea is centered around 16-25 year old girls? Weird. I want to point out that many older men could be watching a minor dance provocatively or sing provocative lyrics about men (since that's what most of their concepts appear to be out). It's weird and quite frankly perverted to have minors dancing on a stage to please a male audience or to primarily cater to a male audience. I also want to talk about how like the Western industry, women in K-pop don't get much say as to what they get to do, amd they get hated on easier for their actions as well.
  - - - Defense: While this article is a little old, it still holds significance as jazz is still a male dominated field and it's a tough genre to get started in so most of the information still holds up. This looks more to the opposite side of things where part of the audience feels women and black musicians have an advantage but the data disproves this opinion. It was written by a professor who teach jazz history, jazz theory and more at a prestigious university.
        
        Connection: Women are seen as a novelty and are constantly objectified to make their appearance seem more regulated by men.
- - - - Defense: This article is quite new and is only dated a few years back. It is an Oxford student run newspaper site and is an organization site that has a prestigious university attached to the website. There were many studies and research points cited in the article and many examples were given to back up what was being explained.
  - - - Defense: This was written by a woman who cited many different studies many quotes from women in music who shared their stories. It was written really recently and is extremely relevant and crucial to the development of the research.
    - - Connection: Women are consistently sexualized in so many ways in the music industry.
  - - - Defense: It was written really recently and there are tons of citations from other studies and research to back up what she's saying. You can look up the writer of the article and can also contact the website.
  - - - Defense: It was written pretty recently and has many citations that go along with the material. It was written by a woman in college who is getting a music industry studies degree so it was written by someone who knows what they are talking about. It was published into a commons of scholarly articles
