This video is not about Beyonce. It's not even really about this song. My point is NOT that she shouldn't have made this song because of X, Y, and Z.

My point IS: Oh, Look! X, Y, and Z exist and this song is a great tie-in to a discussion of feminism.

If you've watched some of my other videos, you would be able to sense the sarcastic tone. Relax.

I agree partially, but I believe that Beyonce made Run the World because when an icon at her caliber makes an empowering song, it's not because she is trying to deceive her audience, it's because she is trying to change the outlook that women and young girls have about themselves in our society. She wants them to believe that they can run the world and that we women possess the strength and wisdom to do so. And just to make a correction...She says "None of these Niggas can fade me" not B*****es.

I think the title of this song is misleading. Beyonce saying that "girls run the world" is more of a comparative battle versus statement to the boys are better than girl and girls are better than boys statement and she is trying to empower women and girls in a misandrist way. It's like a mix of negative and positive.

I think that this issue could have been addressed without using Beyonce's video to boost this young woman's point!

But good video nonetheless!

Please!!! This is a joke! Get a life!

You, lady, have read wayyyyyyy too much into a simple song.

Feminist don't hate men they hate women and want to be men. Men and women are not equal, nor are we the same if we were one of us is irrelevant

daaamn this indian (feather) chick got westernized (feminist) as fuck

[ZerbuTempAccount]

I agreed with the start where you said it would be better to have an egalitarian run society. However, I stopped agreeing with you when you began to spout feminist propaganda (false statistics, the wage gap, etc...) later on.

She knows it's just a song!!!!!!!! She is using it as a way to make a point - a very good point - in an amusing way.

[Kaeka92]

Bitch it's just a song get over your self!!!

[ChockedBazooka]

Now isn't it interesting that Ne-Yo passed "Irreplaceable" on to be sung by Beyoncé cause it could've been regarded as to chauvinist if a man sung it... it takes more than a Youtube comment to decipher what kind of existing prejudice made his recording label decide that but it shows that pop artists don't act on shaping new opinions or a new understanding, but they feed on what's already there. Run The World = feminism made trendy.

I love you.

Way to completely miss the point, idiot.
