Every goddamn day I wake up and wish that I was born a man. It's not normally something I tell people, but since you had the fucking gall to go 'hurrdurr u jus jelly', I'd like you to know this. You are lying because you are jealous of her.Īlright madam, there was no need to make this personal. That's the double standard, and that was the point I was trying to make. I think that line of thinking is in itself sexist, because nobody criticizes men in this way when they make similar choices. My disagreement is with criticizing these women in a way that accuses them of promoting sexism (the patriarchal bargain part). Liking or not liking these women's work is not the point. I'm just not into the whole booty shaking, twerking thing. Yeah, I'd probably agree with you that it's gross and icky. I didn't like the J-Lo and Iggy Azalea 'Booty' video either and wished I hadn't seen it. I've never seen the Anaconda video, and I don't want to. And if the video had been full of guys shaking their asses, I would have thought it was gross and icky too. But I also have the right to have a negative reaction to it.
She has the right to do whatever she wants. Does this mean that I'm shaming her, or that I think she shouldn't be 'allowed' to make a video like this? Hell no. I think it's gross and icky, and I don't want to watch it.
