Genre Convention

Pop
Aiming towards a younger audience of around 9-16 this genre utilises colourful and trendy clothing and costumes along with choreographed dance routines, which are often sexualised especially considering this content is viewed by society as inappropriate for their supposed target market. Furthermore it is generally manufactured around external appearances and 'Body Fascism'. 'Body Fascism' is the prejudice or discrimination of a group of people due to the way that they look or their weight which is further linked to fat shaming which is the intentional shaming of a person due to their body composition and weight.
