I don't even really like the song that much, but that's not even why

It's not "about rape" but I think we all need to accept that it is a bit rapey.

Female: "I really must gooo"
Male: "But bae it's hella snowing"
Female: "I still wanna go hooome"
Male: "Nah you'll die in the snow srsly"
Female: "I totally can't staaay"
Male: "My penis is waaaarm"
Both: "and its coooold outsiiiiddde"


He's one step away from pretending that his Netflix subscription has expired and c'mon baby what else will we do we don't wanna get bored?

Occasionally when I read while logged off I'll see LT's posts and I automatically cast as "Captain Obvious" in my head... My subconscious feels: It. just. works.

I did make him an avatar (inadvertedly) when I was playing around with graphics during Christmas. I never posted it because it was right before I went on hiatus. :spin: It's very fitting for the season...

LT only likes avatars with large breasts. You're going to need to photoshop some boobs onto that grinch.

LOL.... I guess. My late husband wanted that as the first dance at our wedding.

I could have chosen anything currently in the charts with an "explicit lyrics" warning. It's all nonsense...

I think the problem is that some people don't understand that just because they think it's a tired rapey Christmas song, they don't have the power nor the right to dictate how others should view it.

Choosing what I listen to without anyone sticking in an oar.... that's means so much to me.

When you think of the things happening to women in the world right this minute, I don't think it's helpful to waste time and emotion over something so very trivial.

The worst trolls are "stealth trolls" imo, because they tend to be more emotionally manipulative and "feign ignorance" with the purpose of gaslighting. I wouldn't consider LT/Alf to be stealthy at all.

Tbh, even as a child, I always found that song quite creepy. It still sounds sinister to me. “Hey whats in this drink?!”

Crimson Dynamo 03-12-2018 11:46 AM

I find it pretty disturbing that most female pop stars cant do anything on stage except simulate sex, and often if not all the time with male black or ethnic dancers

I literally pulled off the first LIttle Mix vid on you tube and they were at it after 20 seconds

Its beyond pathetic

:umm2:

This was playing in Sainburys when I was shopping earlier, can`t say I paid too much attention to the lyrics before, seems pretty tame compared to some of the song lyrics these days, but creating a fuss seems to be the thing to do these days

Why do you have such a big problem with women being sexual? :umm2:

USA radio stations stop playing 'Baby It's Cold Outside' due to predatory MeToo tones
 
https://www.cbc.ca/news/entertainmen...side-1.4931867


https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...-concerns.html


Back in the 1940's
it was fine. But USA Radio stations
have taken it off the Air in 2018

https://i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2018/12...4041013354.jpg
The MeToo group saying loads of women
have been drugged
and raped.
No wonder South Park in 2014 used Bill Cosby
trying to get Taylor Swift to drink up his doped drink



Sign Of The Times.

arista 08-12-2018 03:08 PM

Yes I need to be merged, please.

Alf 09-12-2018 01:30 PM

Another publicity stunt, for the number 1 spot?

First the pogues Fairytale of New York song and now this ! :facepalm:

Definitely fuss over nothing ! both songs are tongue in cheek and people need to chill out .

And exactly there's far worse songs out there with explicit lyrics that can't be listened to by kids .

arista 09-12-2018 04:53 PM

In a Way it shows the Damage the MeeToo
group can do.


Sadly times have changed

Withano 09-12-2018 05:21 PM

What are the worse songs that keep getting radioplay?
