I watched this video to the end and found that every participant behaved exactly like a robot and was not enjoying this video. Including the babe dancing in the background. I mean really. Sex machine?
Boisterous pandering to guys who see themselves much greater than they are, and rightly so, based on the video! All they have to do is just be nice guys and girls will love them!
IOW, they don't have to stand on their heads and scream "I want your pussy!" A major turnoff!
Girls know guys want that 24/7. Don't turn guys and women into robots.
Both men and women want sweet people to be with. Just sayin'.

Comrade Pammy, I literally searched "Sexmachine" on youtube and chose the first video. James Brown isn't exactly what I would call high culture, I wasn't choosing the video based on the finer points of choreography and the overall message it was sending.
Also, I didn't make the bloody video! Bitching at me is like bitching at a store for the mistake that the factory made! Even if I did, it was the early 70's. Music videos didn't come into their own and didn't have good choreography yet. Had to wait for MTV for that. If you don't believe me, just look at the artistry of the average Billy Joel music video. They're like mini movies!
Ironic, seeing as how MTV just seems to show nothing but reality shows nowadays. When I was a kid, even though they had started to latch onto the reality show craze, MTV still played a yuuge block of music videos every day. Not that I actually watched them, VH1 always played the better music and the better videos, in my humble opinion.
Now I'm led to ask "Do they still make music videos anymore?". It seems like what passes for a music video nowadays is nothing more than a live video plus lip-syncing and minus an audience. They aren't the huge, bombastic, creative productions they once were.
