I didn't know they did anything else!

All I can think about with this is that I kind of wouldn't mind if someone made a fun kids' movie about Rosa Parks or Jane Goodall, even if they did totally distroy their personas by making them oppressively feminine. It would be a trade-off to see women accomplishing cool shit that has NOTHING to do with boyz because

At first I thought maybe it could work if the female was kind of the opposite of Ted where she wasn't even looking for love but it found her. That is how my life kind of went so far - it'd be so relatable! But you know how that would turn out - lady who thinks she don't need no man proven wrong trope.

I has a lot of weird experiences growing up, but this is the spookiest. Once when I was in high school, I auditioned for the school play. I was practicing my monologue a few more times before I had to leave for the audition. As usual with these stories, I was home alone.

:). You should never be afraid to trust your gut when it comes to people. We all pick up on subtle clues in the body language and vocal intonation of other people. Just because you can't articulate exactly what you don't like about someone doesn't mean you are obligated to "give him a chance".

Society! Our culture systematically objectifies and dehumanizes women, and you can't have any kind of "real" relationship with someone who isn't human. With all this in the background, I think in order for men to be able to relate to women as people they need to be taught. So it's not that people are teaching these

Because those guys don't think of women as people who have feelings similar to their own. They think of women as some manipulative other species that want something from them and they should get sex out of it to make the transaction "fair".
My little bro is of this persuasion. Granted, he has had his little squishy

I always thought it was alluding to drug use. You know, "taking a hit"? So either the person in the song wants a hit of drugs or maybe it's that she wants a "hit" of that addicting, drug-like sex.

Boobshots? Lesbian cheerleaders? Is a 15 year old basement child running this account?

Tina is the new Lisa Simpson!

Hahaha right? This can't possibly have worked more than one in a million times. I don't even know what I would do if a guy said this to me. I would probably just stare at him like he was someone's misplaced toddler.

Seriously. This part, "one bride was murdered every hourover dowry demands in 2010. In 2009, a report by Action Aid found that the ratio of girls to boys in some Punjab villages was about 300 to 1,000" just made me squint. I mean, with a gender ratio like that shouldn't they be happy just to have a wife? But no.

Awwwe IT DOESN'T KNOW WHAT AIR IS!!

Haha I started thinking the same thing. Or the spider could symbolize the dark, sexual urges that creep up on young women. I think if I ever have a kid and I read them that nursery rhyme it's going to go,

Ugh YES. To even accept it as ironic, one has to assume that we live in a post-racist America. Spoiler alert! We don't.

I KNOW!!! You beat me to it. It drives me crazy because satire is awesome. Blatant racism and misogyny is not.

"It's satire, it's comedy, we didn't mean any harm by it," Anselm added.

Ugh that's dumb. She's not related to the Muffin Man.

Once my brothers and I moved out my parents were like, "BACK TO DRINKING!! CHEERS!" And they seem way happier.
