OK I’m showing my age but I have just seen some videos of this ‘musician/singer’, I’m completely stunned. How on earth are our kids supposed to have standards when this crap is being peddled as music.

In the olden days Madonna was a rebel, I feel so sorry for our girls as they see these ‘role models’ daily! Dreadful!

Does anyone remember Ain’t No Fun by Snoop Dogg??
Back in 1993!!!

@SaySomethingMan

I must be listening to the wrong ( or tight rap music). I’ve listened to quite a bit of rap and connect remember a single one where they wrap About their penis. Maybe I didn’t understand m,

Does nobody remember Madonna in the 80s and 90s?

Quite. I loved Madonna back in the day. Cone shaped bras, the erotica book and documentary, writhing about in her undies.

I was a teen and never once thought this was how I had to dress or act to impress boys. I was sensible enough to know it was a pop star thing and that when she was relaxing at home she was probably in a shell suit like the rest of us, 😂😂

If I wear a tight pair of shorts am I not a feminist? Am I only supposed to dance in a way that is unsexy to be a true feminist? I don't understand what people want.

No, because according to MN Feminism, you'd be dressing and dancing to be pleasing to the male eye 🙄

Basically expressing sexuality = internalised misogyny and upholding the patriarchy

The only way to do feminism right is to look like a dust bunny

Eminem rapped about raping his actual mother. Sort out your own before you lynch black rappers for discussing their dicks.

You're assuming that's MN approved in the first place - not a chance!Grin

LuckyAmy1986 · 03/02/2022 20:32

@VladmirsPoutine I don’t think anyone is pointing out those songs in a bad way- just addressing whoever said that they have never heard a male rapper talk about their dicks. No?

DickMabutt73962 · 03/02/2022 20:32

@VladmirsPoutine

She doesn't make music for you. If she was popular on mumsnet then she'd be making a mistake. When will white women learn to leave successful prominent dark skinned black women alone. She is not the first to do this; for some reason and I can't figure it out - seems she, Cardi B, Beyonce are always dragged on this site but Madonna was an angel. I wonder, I can't put my finger on it what separates those women. I just don't know what it might be.
You forgot Nicki Minaj who's also been mentioned in this thread 😩 but Madonna was a 'rebel'
LuckyAmy1986 · 03/02/2022 20:33

@bbgxd haha!! I used to listen to that as a teen. Listened to it fairly recently too Blush I definitely don’t belong here

That was my intention!

I like Kanye and it was the first song I thought of.

She’s horrible.

Absolutely classles.

@OhWhyNot

So what is being a feminist about

Do women have to act in a particular way to be feminists

Can you explain to me exactly how baring your bum in a music video designed to make money is feminist?
GlendaSugarbeanIsJudgingYou · 03/02/2022 20:44

I always end up listening to Trina after reading these threads.

Megan really isn't that shocking.

No-one’s lynching anyone by discussing sexist rep lyrics on a mumsnet thread - get a grip because that’s in incredibly poor taste.
VladmirsPoutine · 03/02/2022 20:49

Yup. Nicki Minaj too! I don't actually think the issue is white men sexualising black women in the slightest. It's white women. Always has been. It's something that really irks me intensely. I mean really it does. We see this type of thing played out again and again and it starts when black girls are very young - it's violence.

VladmirsPoutine · 03/02/2022 20:52

I think this thread is really irking me so I'll go find one on someone's MiL or whatever else because discussing these things on mumsnet is akin to and I've said this a million times going on a Polish vegan forum to extol the virtues of a bacon sandwich whilst writing in ancient Aramaic. It just doesn't work.

What now? The issue in a patriarchal racist society is not white men sexualising black women, but white women? White women are perpetuating sexism by committing violence against black women?

What a load of male-apologist woman blaming. Or are you just being hyperbolic for the sake of it? It does nothing for progressive politics to pretend women are the global oppressors. All it does is collude with the white make hierarchy to pretend that women of any race are always the scapegoat - always the ones to be blamed for male violence and oppression.

foxgoosefinch · 03/02/2022 20:58

*white make hierarchy.

foxgoosefinch · 03/02/2022 20:58

amijustparanoidorjuststoned · 03/02/2022 21:29

This is hilarious.

Women are allowed to express themselves however they wish. Remember they are not making music FOR you or your children.

Also remember - the more you bad mouth her, the better it benefits her. She isn't hurting anyone, so I'd keep schtum if I were you.

foxgoosefinch · 03/02/2022 21:48

She can do what she likes of course! That doesn’t mean that any of it is feminist. Margaret Thatcher did what she liked, didn’t make her a feminist Grin And we are allowed to say that.

The word isn’t just a synonym for “women”.

foxgoosefinch · 03/02/2022 21:50

And telling other women to “keep schtum” isn’t feminist either.
