[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I'm sure she's very talented and a hard worker. However I have never liked vulgarity and her shows, as well as many, many others in pop culture, offend me. [/quote] Yep, her shows are explicit and we tell young girls of color to look to her and then complain they are viewed as sexual objects[/quote] This is insane. She's a grown woman. She sings about sexuality in a way that is empowering for women. I mean, are you some weirdo who has sex through a hole in a sheet and clutches your pearls about Madonna, Britney, Gaga, Alanis, Prince, Cyndi, and basically every other frickin pop star? Do you realize sex is part of life? Are you seriously trying to blame Beyonce for the hypersexualization of black girls? WTF is wrong with you? She has used her power to shed light on issues of racism and sexism and is contributing a rich volume of work to our culture. You don't have to like it, but your criticism is mindless. [/quote] I'm the first PP in the little thread above, and yes, I find most pop culture vulgar. This isn't about Beyonce in particular. And just because I find these shows vulgar, it doesn't mean I am afraid of sex, or whatever you are implying. I strongly disagree with you that these artists describe sexuality in a way that is empowering for woman - actually I think exactly the opposite. And since I'm not the other PP, I don't have any opinions on the hypersexualization of black girls. [/quote]
