Case in point Jimmy Fallon did a music room cover of the song and it makes you love this terrible song that is a step back for female empowerment. “My name’s Paul and that’s between y’all.”īut the song is catching on and damn if it’s not catchy and cute if you turn your mind off. So the song is inspired by his wife and that is between him and her on how they express themselves and her comfort zone with hair pulling, being called a Bitch and so on.
Gradually over our marriage, I’ve turned her into a bad girl.” “It has this she’s (Paula Patton) a good girl, but she wants to be a bad girl.’ It’s very much about my wife. Robin Thicke himself has gone on record HERE saying to Howard Stern What we actually need is more real female empowerment. I don’t want to have guys chasing me saying “you know you want it.” If it’s implied that the song will empower women to be more adventurous in the bedroom, I thought that’s why we have Fifty Shades of Grey, Game of Thrones…the list goes on and on. I don’t want to be a prostitute or an object in a music video. Empowerment is giving the ability or permission to do or be something. “it’s kinda female empowerment when you look at it.”įull article here As a woman, who can read lyrics and watch a video it’s not empowerment. I will also ask this question – when is degrading a person fun?Īnswer: when a catchy song is playing behind the video.
They could have made a real statement about how women’s bodies are beautiful without it seeming like sexual harassment, objectification and discrimination. I find it embarrassing that self-called “perfect guys” choose their platform of fame and press to degrade women and look like they are having fun doing it. Men are always gonna want to follow them around.” I’ve always respected women.” So we just wanted to turn it over on its head and make people go, “Women and their bodies are beautiful. What a pleasure it is to degrade a woman. People say, “Hey, do you think this is degrading to women?” I’m like, “Of course it is. Because all three of us are happily married with children, we were like, “We’re the perfect guys to make fun of this.” Bestiality, drug injections, and everything that is completely derogatory towards women. We tried to do everything that was taboo. Robin Thick himself even said in GQ Magazine “The song is about how a girl really wants crazy wild sex but doesn’t say it - positing that age-old problem where men think no means yes into a catchy, hummable song.” “The nudity might be fine if the song was called, ‘Let’s All Have Some Fun,’ but it’s called ‘Blurred Lines,’ and the subject itself is enough to make some female music fans uncomfortable,” Tricia Romano (Daily Beast), who called the song “kind of rapey,” wrote. The tune is not just disparaging to women, but could be seen as rape-y. “That man is not your maker” the ONLY line in the whole song that can be seen as female empowerment and a case that Thicke himself points out in almost every interview to defend the song.
“Don’t need no papers” When I hear this I think of breeders – again animals and not even human, or women kidnapped and sold into slavery. “Let me liberate you” You mean be a woman’s pimp? “But you’re an animal, Baby it’s in your nature” Okay so I was right women are being compared to feral cats, animals, not even human. “Tried to domesticate you” Are women feral cats roaming alleyways needing an owner to domesticate them?
