    I don't get to hear it that often, but as a "bass" type of girl, it's about time. Tired of hearing about all the girls in their bikini's (listen to country music). And thanks Legend1945 for your comment. We need more men like you.

    Here's something to argue about:
    Does no one have any trouble with their preteen/teenage girls singing about "Boys like a little more booty to hold at night"? Because young girls totes need to be singing about groping and sex, like, all the time.

    I'm going to agree here. I only have boys and I change the station when songs with questionable lyrics come on.

    I guess I'm just hopelessly innocent, because I just associated that with cuddling. o:)

    I don't think that this particular song is going to directly cause teen sexcapades. :wink:

    Every inch of you is perfect from the bottom to the top.

    Finally, a decent song promoting a healthy mental body image.

    Decent is a relative term here.

    You're probably right, but I was just talking to my middle son about being desensitized to things this morning. ;)

    Oh please, when I was a wee girl, I was singing, er rapping, "Push It". I'm pretty sure I had no clue what the heck I was singing at the time. I don't think it in any way influenced my sexual choices either, probably because, again, I had no clue and just liked the music. Sometimes a song is just a song.

    My DD understands its something grown people do, and not girls her age. But then I am a horrific mother who has frank open discussions about sex and lets them watch movies according to their maturity level (not their age).

    I like the song. I think it's interesting how people can create an uproar about a song like I saw on an MFP post a week or two ago. :p

    Or it could be a car bomb thread. Whatever.

    And now that song will be stuck in my head for the rest of the day lol.

    Also, whenever I see your username, I simply HAVE to say it in a Beastie Boy voice!

    Oh, this reminds me. When I was 11 (I think?), we did a school project for our reading class where we were supposed to do a performance related to one or more of the items we had just read. Well, one of the texts we'd read had a horse in it, so my group decided to do this epic performance with several songs, dances, a little melody we put together, costumes, the whole works. We even threw in a couple of extra books (Phantom Tollbooth was one of our toss ins).

    Anyway, two of the songs we chose to dance to were "Pony" and "The Distance" by Cake, which are both, um, suggestive. I think I was already out of high school before I realized that, not only did I dance to the song "Pony" in front of a whole classroom and our teacher, there is a video of all of this happening. I finally realized why our teacher could barely hold herself together afterwards.

    Oh, and we rehearsed the stupid thing in front of tons of people.

    So, yeah. We thought is was so cool how those songs worked out with the horse thing.

    I think the lyrics are quite reserved in comparison to kids singing along to lyrics like Christina Milian with ' dip it low pick it up slow roll it all around poke it out let your back roll , pop that thing, ima show you how to make your man go oooooh' or 50 cent and lil wayne with there lick my lollipop lyrics :open_mouth:

    Agreed.

    Love the song and would love to see her singing it.
    As far as lyrics go, there's always been the questionable ones, doesn't mean are kids are going to follow. I only recently listened to the words of Lou Reed - Take a walk on the Wild side which I grew up with...didn't turn me into a transvestite.

    funny story- one day, when I was about 32 years old, and singing along to Frankie Goes to Hollywood "Relax" something FINALLY occurred to me about that song. After what, 26 years of hearing it? And it's not like I wasn't the kid in trouble in high school running with the wrong crowd and with all the male friends who was always around nasty comments. Some people are just not very observant I guess.

    One day about 12 years ago I had the pleasure of watching what appeared to be a 10 or 11 year old boy belt out "it's getting hot in here, so take off all your clothes, I am gettin' so hot I wanna take my clothes off" as we were waiting in a crowded train with broken AC in the summer. His poor mother was mortified.
