True, in one sequence the woman does a lot of sexy gesturing but she's looking right at one guy who SHE presumably wants to attract. I also don't object to videos BY women showing women enjoying some sexually oriented experience like "My Side Of The Bed" by Susanna Hoffs or "I Touch Myself" by Divinyls especially if, like these songs, they are in the context of a one-on-one relationship. The stuff I don't like is the David Lee Roth type of thing which shows a succession of large breasted women in bikinis doing chest presses sort of displaying themselves for anybody who might happen by. Certainly there's too much of that going on.
