This song provides examples of stereotypical masculine and feminine traits. The theory I will be using to analyze this song is the sex-role perspective theory.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Stereotypical Masculine Traits\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>analytical<\/li>\n<li>competitive<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&#8221;<\/p>\n<div class=\"ujudUb\">Everybody&#8217;s laughing in my mind<br \/>\nRumors spreading &#8217;bout this other guy<br \/>\nDo you do what you did when you did with me<br \/>\nDoes he love you the way I can<br \/>\nDid you forget all the plans that you made with me?<br \/>\n&#8216;Cause baby, I didn&#8217;t<\/div>\n<div class=\"ujudUb\">That should be me, holding your hand<br \/>\nThat should be me, making you laugh<br \/>\nThat should be me, this is so sad<br \/>\nThat should be me<br \/>\nThat should be me<br \/>\nThat should be me, feeling your kiss<br \/>\nThat should be me, buying you gifts<br \/>\nThis is so wrong<br \/>\nI can&#8217;t go on<br \/>\nTill you believe<br \/>\nThat should be me<br \/>\nThat should be me&#8221;<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>The lyrics provided show that Bieber is being analytical and questioning their relationship and the relationship the girl is in now. Bieber is asking if the new guy in her life loves her the way that can, analyzing which relationship is the better relationship. This goes along with the idea of the masculine trait, competitiveness. Bieber is talking about everything that the girl is doing now should be with him, not her new boyfriend. Since he is competitive, he is asking if his love is as strong as Bieber&#8217;s because he believes he should be the one who wins the girl in the end. He is saying everything that they would be doing if the girl would have stayed with him.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><strong>Stereotypical Feminine Traits <\/strong><\/div>\n<ul>\n<li>yielding<\/li>\n<li>affectionate<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&#8220;You said you needed a little time from my mistakes<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s funny how you used that time to have me replaced<br \/>\nDid you think that I wouldn&#8217;t see you out at the movies<br \/>\nWhat you doin&#8217; to me<br \/>\nYou&#8217;re taking him where we used to go<br \/>\nNow if you&#8217;re trying to break my heart<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s working cause you know&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>These lyrics show that the woman is giving away under pressure or yielding. She is yielding away from being broken-hearted again by Bieber and gave up and decided to go into a different relationship. She is yielding away from the feelings she may have had for BIebr and going to a different individual. Secondly, Bieber is saying how he sees her at the movies with her new significant other. This shows that she is affectionate towards the person, even though this is not towards Bieber himself.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The next Justin Bieber song I will be analyzing is &#8220;That Should Be Me&#8221; from his\u00a0My World 2.0\u00a0album which was released in 2010.
