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.

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.

Not the PP, but this is a woman Michelle Obama called "a role model for us all"?  Here are some lovely lyrics I'm sure you're sharing with your kids.  Because you know, role model.

"Driver roll up the partition please
Driver roll up the partition please
I don't need you seeing 'Yonce on her knees
Took forty-five minutes to get all dressed up
We ain't even gonna make it to this club
Now my mascara running, red lipstick smudged
Oh he so horny, yeah he want to f*ck
He bucked all my buttons, he ripped my blouse
He Monica Lewinski'd all on my gown"[/quote]

Beyonce is singing this song about giving head to her husband. Not some random man. 
Her husband. 
In a limo on their way to a club appearance for show. 
Her husband.
She is a wife, singing about the good, the bad, and the ugly in her marriage. 
There are worse things people can do than refer to their marital sex life.

Wow.  That you're justifying those lyrics being sung and emulated by young girls - oh, and MICHELLE OBAMA and her DAUGHTERS - is just unreal.  I don't care who she's singing about.  Would you want your young daughters (if you have any) singing along with this??  [/quote]
