This seems to me to be a video, much like my name's WOMEN, about the objectification of women. The screaming, bleeding electrical socket in the beginning is likely to be a reference to a woman losing her virginity, to the loss of innocence. The men are fox hunters because they are chasing after women as objects, prizes, and not as people.
I agree with the plug-in cord part and the fox hunting thing. I, too see it as losing virginity, losing innocence.

This is my personal interpretation :

Sexy little things
The plug-in cord resembles losing innocence, then the cord is connected to eyeball machine which rotates, maybe it interprets that after a woman loses innocence, people will 'approve' her existence. I see the laughing people voices as the usual people's opinion about how shameful you are if you're still virgin in this age (sorry, in my country this thing is a very strict thing to talk about).

I notice the whole black and white thing and interested of the fact that maybe it is connected to A BEST 2. The thing I realized is that the women who walks around and turns her back and walks again, is showing her white side in black background and do the opposite. I don't really know what does this means but I think of being inconstant about things or being different from her surroundings despite of the A BEST 2 theme. I also see the fox hunting man prancing and dancing between the horses as the concept of unable to decides or acts. He holds the horse whip in hand (he's ready to choose and ride a horse), but instead picking horse, he played in the middle of those horses.

The woman with tattoo of her face in her hand means that even if women cover their face with 'masks' they still show their true form or in other words they are shallow (did I put it right?). There are more men than women in the sofa and in the box, imo it means that men are overpowering women and that a small number of women is dominated with much more number of men.
The giantess probably resembles that despite of the usual stereotype of women being weak to men, actually they are more powerful than men themselves. The last Ayu who threw the guitar suddenly is self-explanatory

"No one can read
A woman's mind and the sky of what-is-it "

I still cannot interpret the other models and the two lips though.
I will post my other interpretation of other PVs later since I'm in college right now
