One main thing to point out with this song is that it is also a duet with female singer Carrie Underwood. I believe having both male and female parts is a big reason how it is somewhat confusing when thinking about the Sex-Role Perspective theory.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Link to song lyrics: <\/span><\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.azlyrics.com\/lyrics\/jasonaldean\/ifididntloveyou.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">https:\/\/www.azlyrics.com\/lyrics\/jasonaldean\/ifididntloveyou.html<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Feminine Stereotypes<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cI wouldn\u2019t still cry sometimes, Wouldn\u2019t have to fake a smile\u201d<\/span>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The female artist specifically sings this part which fits into the stereotype of a female\u2019s emotions being soft and fragile<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">What I find somewhat tricky about this song is that defining stereotypes completely depends on which artist sings what line in the song. This song is a very emotional love song that seems stereotypically fitting for a female artist but, even the male has \u201csoft\u201d lines within the entire song which does not reinforce the masculine stereotypes. There is no specific male part that is stereotypical because the whole song is him singing about how he is emotional for missing a girl and just thinking about her. This song does in fact fit the stereotypical view that a country song is usually about heartbreak and contains both a male and female going through the emotions. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The song \u201cIf I Didn\u2019t Love You\u201d by Jason Aldean was very interesting to pick apart while using the Sex-Role Perspective theory.
