I've never quite understood the lyrics of this song. To me I feel she is attacking 1970's-80's Radical Feminism. Later those who termed themselves "pleasure feminists" retermed radical feminist as "danger feminism" or "anti-sex". I also feel the song "Radical or Pro-Parental" is an attack on radical feminism. Possibly "I Like Fucking" might be too. I wish instead of criticizing radical feminism, she would focus on attacking patriarchy.
Part of the patriarchal structure is that it teaches us that only the pure, chaste woman is worth anything and wanted. Only the untouched virgin is desirable, while men do not have to worry about this standard.
@kcool134 I never really considered Courtney Love Riot Grrl material. She only moans into a microphone and complains on how heartbroken she is even though Kurt died over 10 years ago.
gee...where should i start...ok: lunachicks, gossip, peaches, keny arkana, chicks on speed, the slits, boyscout, rasputina, sleater kinney, tribe 8, huggy bear, spinerette, stars like tina turner, rasputina, yo majesty, le tigre 7 year bitch hole L7 team dresch bratmobile tegan and sara amanda palmer to be continued the problem is: the male-dominated, sexist music producers, magazines, labels ignore female musicians...they force them to be a sexy singer (only)...sad but true...
@Somethingreallycool Girls in Zimbabwe who are more worried about rape, aids, and food shortages to partake in female drama. Those girls probably have NOT experienced this.
@semperfidelis3100 These girls (by the way, MASSIVE generalisations on all sides here) are still able to have social lives, and y'know, actually talk to people. Sure, if you have rape, aids and food shortages to worry about, social situations may not be high on your list of shit that bothers you, but who are you to say that they have not actually experienced things? There's a fucktonne of girls in Zimbabwe. What gives you the authority, or knowledge to make that statement?
@williamjamesbrown She wasn't necessarily implying that, reading into it is a little bit defensive. Gender is the problem. It's not that women are more insecure than men or vice versa, PEOPLE are insecure and we should do our best to help each other and not worry about bullshit categories that we're placed in before we have a snowball's chance in hell of understanding them.
@Fanta666 Yo! It was childish if not worse for me to post that, sorry. It would be far more appropriate to unite against the chavs, though thats hardly my style. Haha. Have a good weekend.
I said I wanna come over You said ok just come over Your friends are all on the couch Your friends said lets walk around Ill pretend your friends are my friends And kinda try not to offend them But I wont let you see anything real Let you know, theres limits to-- I stopped talking an hour ago I stopped talking an hour ago I stopped talking an hour ago I stopped talking an hour ago
Its a predictable point of view This group dynamic caters to Its a particular point of view I think you know when it caters to you (and if you do know dont act like you Dont cuz its really annoying, and if You dont know, well, lets just say, Youre a lot lot stupider than I thought) Ill pretend your friends are my friends But I dont wanna hear you defend them In fact that kinda insults me and I kinda dont really wanna be here right
I said I wanna come over
You said 'ok just come over'

But she is, though.

This song is a "fuck-you" to that idea.

i once introduced myself to Janet Weiss as "the worlds's oldest riot grrrl"
for a time, i thought i might be the world's ONLY riot grrrl.
so it's nice to see the movement still has teeth...
