[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yeah women are complete hypocrites about everything.  The same women at work going on and on about diversity and emotional intelligence head out running in the morning to playlists full of talk about hoes, drinking, being sluts etc.  it's ...empowering or something[/quote]

You can be empowered, be emotionally intelligent, have a career, and still enjoy sex. Even rough sex, degrading sex, casual sex, sex with multiple men.

The key is consent. If you didn’t consent to sexual contact with a man, he has zero right to touch you, send you pictures, or talk to you sexually. If you say no, he needs to stop. [/quote]I absolutely respect those rights, but please don't play songs about it in front of my children [/quote]

Hate to break it to you, but your kids are gonna hear it anyway. And god help you when your sheltered child grows up and moves away.

I grew up in a very evangelical, Focus On The Family community where kids were sheltered and sex was seen as bad. Every single one of those kids ended up promiscuous after they left home, with many unplanned pregnancies.

Better to have open and honest conversations with your kids about sex. Sheltering never helped anybody. [/quote]Ironically, an open and honest conversation is what OPs dh started. The kids even got involved thinking about what the song meant, and maybe even the societal meaning.[/quote]

It wasn’t open and honest. Open and honest would be “as a woman, how do you feel about XYZ?” Instead he just went on the attack and did the dreaded “you people”. He wasn’t interested in hearing other perspectives, he was interested in bullying people and feeding his own ego. [/quote]I think you and I agree on the value of open discussion. But I don't think open discussion always has to be presented softly like you're saying. Sometimes it's confrontational, and that's fine.

Also, for the record, if my dd has multiple partners and unplanned pregnancies, I would not judge her. If she decided to become a stripper in west Hollywood, I would be be so disappointed. [/quote]

Good thing the song is about drag shows, not stripping. [/quote]
