    This is why I listen to classic rock and country music. Both genres don't care what shape you are as long as you have a vagina and don't look like a foot.

    Crap! I'm 0 for 2. Now I can't listen to classic rock or country music.

    Maybe I should switch to the blues?

    A blogger I follow wrote a similar assessment. She now gets death threats from Meaghan Trainor (Trainer? I have no idea.) fans on the regular. They're quite vicious.

    Beezies need to lighten the frak up... it's not that critical..

    Aren't those the wrong lyrics? Here is what I came up.. I thought it was more for normal girls?!!

    Yeah, it's pretty clear, I ain't no size two
    But I can shake it, shake it
    Like I'm supposed to do
    'Cause I got that boom boom that all the boys chase
    And all the right junk in all the right places

    I see the magazine workin' that Photoshop
    We know that **** ain't real
    C'mon now, make it stop
    If you got beauty building, just raise 'em up
    'Cause every inch of you is perfect
    From the bottom to the top

    Yeah, my mama she told me don't worry about your size
    She says, "Boys like a little more booty to hold tonight."
    You know I won't be no stick figure silicone Barbie doll
    So if that's what you're into then go ahead and move along


    Did I miss something?!!

    Yes, like, the entire OP. Did you even read it?

    OP wrote parody lyrics to illustrate a point.

    First off.... 100% agree. Why can fat people hate on skinny chicks? Unfair.
    I think it's a catchy tune. It makes me want to shake my size 2. I tend to not take everything in life so seriously, though. I am sure there are several men who are more attracted to "curvy" girls than they are to "skinny" girls and that's okay. Just like it's okay for a "curvy" girl to sing a song to other "curvy" girls about the things her mother told her to build up her self-confidence and know that even though she isn't "skinny" she will be able to find a man who appreciates what she has to offer physically. A great song would have been one in which the mother tells the girl how much men value wit, humor and intelligence over looks. Or better yet, that we should appreciate ourselves for who we are and not look for validation in how much men are attracted to us as women, but apparently we aren't there, yet.

    Second) I also find if catchy and shake my booty

    Third) FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS HOLY CURVY IS A SHAPE. A SHAPE not a size. You can be plus size and curvy or petite and curvy.... it's all about the hourglass shape. The 10 inch difference between bust-waist-hips.

    hehe...she said "10 inch"

    Hahahahaha! And no matter what your body type embrace it, be the most healthy self that you can be and don't let the large or small dress size get you down. Even when I was 50 lbs lighter and pretty much anorexic I still had a bootay...I've made peace with my backside.:drinker:

    The OP finds the lyrics offensive and thus wrote other ones saying that they would not be accepted, so why should the original lyrics.

    She doesn't once tear down anyone in that song. Are you mishearing lyrics or do you just interpret things in a certain way so you can rant?

    Any girls that sport a generous booty should be proud. That is so womanly.

    Blurred Lines was a hit song about date rape. There's another song out by a lovely gent who brags about putting molly in women's drinks and having his way with them without them remembering.

    But you ladies keep right on being outraged if someone called you fat/thin. The struggle is no doubt real.

    Yeah, not really caring for those songs either...
