mistreatment of the gay community:
The music video focus's upon the ideas of the struggles you face in society if you are different and don't fit in with the crowd. The gay community is tackled within this music video and how men especially face many difficulties because of their sexuality. The stereotype of a gay man is reenforced through of how he is trying to hide from his true self by getting into relationships with women and then has to embark on journey of self discovery order to be accepted by himself and his family.This is a common issue that most gay men face due to the fact they don't feel accepted by members of society and can face bullying and abuse which is shown through the video. The idea of togetherness is seen throughout and is a key message to ensure that along as people stick together they can overcome anything. It is now becoming more and more common within the 21st century however people are still fearful of admitting their sexuality and the aim of this video is to promote the idea of harmony between all no matter you difference we are all equal individuals.
