If this was the Aussie entry the lyrics would be slightly different. "Don’t touch my bongos. You bloody drongo"

Kicking off about Israel yet Czech Republic has lyrics in it about a girl f***ing a guy at a club, Sweden 2017 having the 'look so freaking beautiful' lyric in a song all about chasing after women and not to mention Poland with the we are Slavic girls being overly sexualised...
Think someone just either has a problem with Netta or is trying to do the typical 'I hate a song cause bj like it' thing |

You bloody drongo" (Might be clearer for Tombo) I like the Aussie version, shame it isn't the actual song  I just don't like the line and it doesn't fit well in the song and sounds out of place. Maybe the songwriters don't know much English vocabulary or colloquial phrases. I've not heard those other songs Cameron but I don't find them problematic tbh based on your descriptions. |

It conveys the message perfectly. You're barely backing up your frankly incredibly stupid point and it's coming across as being contrary for the sake of it
Don't like the song fine, but what a silly thing to pick at for it.

QUOTE(Tombo @ Mar 21 2018, 01:52 AM) They could have just had completely different lines for that part of the song But the point is she's not (nor is any woman - or man!) something for this particular man to just play with. She's not a toy, she's a person. If somebody started touching you inappropriately, I think you'd find the word "stupid" quite nice compared to what you'd deserve to be called!

Yeah, given that situation I would think it is appropriate to call some one stupid. I have had it done to me and it wasn't nice |

If you wanna talk sexist lyrics, look at the biggest songs of the decade - Blurred Lines especially

so do you think this song deserves more criticism for sexist content then ‘blurred lines’?

Songs with women prancing about next to rappers in underwear. Vs You stupid boy. On far more famous and international songs. Hmmmmmm. |

QUOTE(jjake @ Mar 21 2018, 08:06 AM) so do you think this song deserves more criticism for sexist content then ‘blurred lines’? Yes definitely, it was the song of the year and just a case of SJWs going loco and university ‘safe space’ culture rolling into the mainstream media QUOTE(ionderella @ Mar 21 2018, 09:24 AM) you could've also just not chosen to post your initial 'this is sexist!' claim but you did so sorry you feel so uncomfortable I posted it cos it does sound sexist and it is just a ridiculous lyric QUOTE(Liаm @ Mar 21 2018, 01:41 PM) I'm sorry but you genuinely must be taking the mick? The song is basically about rape yet it's "stupid boy" which is sexist... How is the song about rape? I don’t get that meaning from the song I thought it was about an obese girl taking pride in herself and trying to feel good despite her size Usually skinny girls get picked for this sort of thing (I am not hating or being sizist, just posting a fact) This post has been edited by Tombo: 21st March 2018, 01:52 PM |
