| It's really a date rapey song. "Say,what's in this drink?", "the answer is no", "I really must go". Surprised it hasn't been scrubbed out of existence. |

Oh, I totally agree, OP. the song cracks me up with its blatant lines.
Even fourty (thirty?) years ago when it was recorded, wouldn't it have been considered scandalous? |

| It's definitely a rapey song. Many have thought the exact same thing over the years. |

+1 the song is hilarious. Apparently being charming now = rape. |

You honest to God think 'what's in this drink' refers to a drug, rather than a girl talking about the weakening of her own will? You'd think you libbers would get her feeling this way, given women feel its ok to disrespect themselves anytime they get horny by having meaningless sex. But of course, being a libber, you go straight to your man-bashing 'he's forcing her' logic. Sigh. |

"Baby, It's Cold Outside"
I really can't stay - Baby it's cold outside I've got to go away - Baby it's cold outside This evening has been - Been hoping that you'd drop in So very nice - I'll hold your hands, they're just like ice My mother will start to worry - Beautiful, what's your hurry? Father will be pacing the floor - Listen to the fireplace roar So really I'd better scurry - Beautiful, please don't hurry Maybe just a half a drink more - Put some records on while I pour The neighbors might think - Baby, it's bad out there Say, what's in this drink? - No cabs to be had out there I wish I knew how - Your eyes are like starlight now To break this spell - I'll take your hat, your hair looks swell I ought to say no, no, no - Mind if I move in closer? At least I'm gonna say that I tried - What's the sense in hurting my pride? I really can't stay - Baby don't hold out Ah, but it's cold outside I've got to get home - Oh, baby, you'll freeze out there Say, lend me your coat - It's up to your knees out there You've really been grand - Thrill when you touch my hair Why don't you see - How can you do this thing to me? There's bound to be talk tomorrow - Think of my life long sorrow At least there will be plenty implied - If you caught pneumonia and died I really can't stay - Get over that hold out Ah, but it's cold outside Oh, baby, it's cold outside Oh, baby, it's cold outside This song is not about date rape! It's definitely about a woman have a drink or two in order to lose her inhibition and be able to tell herself "Well, at least I TRIED to say no".... from the days when women weren't supposed to want to have sex. |

| Yes, it's a rape-y song. But people get very upset when one points this out. |

I thank you for never again using the word "rapey." It implies there are varying degrees of severity with rape. It's sort of like the phrase "brutal rape" -- all rape is brutal. Suggesting something is a a "little rapey" is patently offensive.
Thank you again for abolishing that word from your lexicon. |

A guy trying to convince a woman to sleep with him is not rape.
