Hi class! This song, "E.T." by Katy Perry featuring Kanye West deals with the themes we were discussing about gender. While it does not fit completely into "MEN as ANIMALS" and "WOMEN as FLOWERS" it uses the same themes: a powerless woman and a man with total agency. Pay attention to the lyrics as it adds another common theme: that women want to be powerless.
If you'd like more detail I wrote a blog post about this song a couple of weeks ago here: http://smartiepops.wordpress.com/2011/02/21/katyperrykanyeet/
