I was thinking more of this on my long drive home today..yeah yeah...I need a life...lol
But really, no one forces anyone to listen to music, watch a show etc. What ever happened to just switching channels, turning something off, scrolling past something? It is as if we lost our push button fingers or something...
I am sure there are so many things I am unaware of and wouldn't need to know about just by telling Alexa to skip or pulling out my earbuds...am I wrong? What ever happened to listening and watching what you found funny, silly, cool, or were just oblivious to?
Makes me wonder if whoever sat around and just picked out this song just to piss people off and rile them up one way or the other...
And kinda like when our parents told us not to look, we did...I would never have looked at this song if nobody had posted it...sheesh...we are turning into mindless sheep I think...scroll past if you hate my post...
I am all for the MeToo movement and No means No...but, to be honest, I never really paid much attention to the lyrics until they blasted this all over...my first reaction was that it was a flirty song...
I think the one woman said it best: we can't look at the past through the lens of today...I would probably listen to it as an instrumental piece...it is a catchy tune...but just as we make changes to other parts of our lives, I would let the song die out
Its a song about a boy and a girl. She came to visit and he asked her to stay. No forced sexually? I don't get the outrage.
I don't hear anyone being coerced or denied their freedom to choose in that song.
