You don’t think WAP is a classic? Same old formula: Sex, shock, and a modest amount of actual talent. Put it in a slick package of production. If you can upset a lot of parents, sales increase 10%. Then again, maybe it’s an elaborate parody. That would make it art. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

I think WAP is wrapped in a great marketing package. As a song, I think it's the female equivalent of songs that some would argue epitomize the concept of, "Toxic Masculinity," had it been written from the male perspective, not that either side is any stranger to self-contradiction, mind you.

For me to accept parody, I would have to accept that the musical, 'Artists,' involved are intelligent enough to comprehend parody as a concept.

Means nothing. Look at Black Panther. Unwatchable and huge hit. Awful movie, The acting was a joke as was the story. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Black Panther was a cultural phenomenon. If some angry old white Trump fan didn’t like it, that’s totally understandable. No one cares. “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

Absolutely untrue. I hate any movie that has horrible acting and a stupid story. Gunsmoke? I have not seen an episode of Gunsmoke since the late sixties. The problem is most people don't know bad acting if it's staring them in the face. Just like most people don't know crappy food when they eat it. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |
