#polygrapheyes

As well as voicing my opinions on certain issues on my blogs I will also be covering songs/media representation that shows them and allows to spread awareness on how serious the problems really are. The first post relating to this is on the song polygraph eyes by yungblud which is a very moving song to listen to. The song focuses on rape but instead of it being from a female perspective it’s from a male perspective yet doesn’t take away from the female’s narrative. It shows the shame that other males have for the grotesque behaviour men have which lead to issues like this. Because of this new angle it makes it that slight more powerful and I’m truly shocked it’s not as mainstream as other songs are. It’s a wonderful way to cover a serious matter that is straightforward and perhaps some can even relate to. And i am aware that it’s not just men that rape other gender identities do to but this song was documenting a story of a woman who was by a man. On top of that the music video also helps deliver the message as it’s very emotional and really shows the victim’s hurting throughout.
