Why is your daughter listening to Kanye west? Maybe instead of worrying about her music you should worry about raising an antisemite

I get it: censorship is wrong. But somewhere in the middle:

- can someone explain the value added to your teen’s life by listening to the “N” word (if sung/spoke by a BIPOC) shouted at them? All I am seeing here is a hate-word and a double standard.


I only let my daughter listen to N-word shouted by white and indigenous people.

Personal preference.


WHAT?!

nothing says wholesome like “knee deep in the passenger seat and you’re eating me out”

Why not have an honest conversation instead of embarrassing yourself to your daughter?

It's fantasy fiction. Apply the same standard you apply to books and movies. Music is just weird because it feels more personal because the audience who likes all the pretty songs likes to sing along sing along and he likes to shoot his gun but he knows not what it means---wait, where was I?

This can’t be a real post.

What 15 year old listens to music through car speakers? Or, not through headphones generally? I call bs.

I try not to censor music or books for teenagers but I have told my kids to be smart enough not to play Kanye and other misogynistic music in front of me- and also to think about what those people are saying about women.

My 12yo listens to a lot of rap I don’t like. I’m not gonna totally censor what she listens to but I’m not going to listen to it either. You are the adult, tell her she can’t listen to it in the car.
