I Respect Women

feminists i think look at things too closely in regards to how women are portrayed in society particularly in television and advertising. advertising is exactly that and is only intended to sell material goods or services. sex sells as a reasonably intelligent person you should know this, so that leaves the question for the manufacturer ‘do i advertise without sex (potentially less sales) or with (potentially greater sales)?’. in this case it is only logical to undertake the former option with the promise of greater sales (although not guaranteed). i am by no means a sexist but i believe that feminists are very bigoted in their beliefs, hardly recognising the injustices that can also befall men. men and women were not made equal, or rather that women and men to society are not equal, women often complain that they don’t get paid enough and this is true. women can practically make men do as they wish through the use of sex (they can throw themselves at men often with success, but in most instances men cannot throw themselves at women), women are often a determinant of whether or not i can get into a nightclub, and on that subject it is frequently men that buy women drinks and not the other way around. i respect women and have grown to understand them having two sisters and a mother, but feminism is a very narrow point of view. my objective was not to make you follow a belief but to simply broaden your views on the way women are portrayed in society and shed some light on how men suffer injustices just like women do.

Background

This post about sexism in advertising and the following comments is all the context you need. I hope you find listening to this as therapeutic as I found “writing” it.

EDIT: Apparently I need to make it clearer, because I’m beginning to get hate comments. I DID NOT WRITE THESE WORDS. An anonymous commenter left this message on one of my blogs, and I am MOCKING THAT COMMENT by turning it into a very serious (READ: NOT SERIOUS AT ALL) song. I am somewhat surprised that I need to say this, but I guess irony and sarcasm are sometimes easy to miss on the internet.

Recording

I recorded it basically in one go as soon as I’d figured out the chords and played it once through. And then I put some awesome harmonies down, too. Yeah, dude. [ETA: Yeah, that was sarcastic!]

Please, feel free to share! But link to this post rather than directly to the mp3, thank you!
