1. Do you even know what a role model is? If she contributes as to why (young, in some cases not even teenage) girls are twerking where their butts shouldn't be twerking, at the age they are twerking, talking about having *** in nearly all the songs she releases frequently, how does that make her a good role model? That's like saying Wayne is a role model because he made his way from the streets to making his own money and is successful or are you gonna tell me that I'm wrong?
What about the songs that empower women that Beyonce makes? Are you just going to refute those songs simply because she makes sexual music? Come on...
You clearly still don't know what I'm saying. As a musical artist, she emulates pop culture. Which is twerking, and all of that carrying on. As a woman; which you seem to not realize she is. As a woman, she is respectable and would make a good role model. As a woman meaning her music career aside. As a woman who is married before bearing a child, she is a good role model for young black women in America. I don't see how you can even disagree with this Lol.
Lil Wayne is not a good example because being sexual is not the same as shooting and murdering and drugs. Lol. Not to mention as a man, he's still a dirt bag. Beyonce is the opposite Lil Wayne when we get back to the basics of a respectable human.
And before you bring up the "it's the parents responsiblity to make sure their child isn't exposed." What about the parents who do and the ones who still find a way to listen to it? It's played on the radio so frequently that it's impossible not to hear. Not only that, they (the young females) could have a friend that listens to her and could have her check the music and videos. If you can agree that Wayne is a good role model than we can agree that Beyonce is as well. Had the music not exist in the first place, there would be no influence to be given, it's quite simple
I wasn't going to say this in the first place Lol.
2. Names are meant to hold meaning, hence them having etyomological roots. Using your example, why would I want to name my child (dirt) after something that is considered to be negatively frowned upon? Not only is it dumb, it's unnecessary unless you'll agree that Shaquandeeshna isn't a dumb name
You said it yourself. Hold meaning. Whose meaning? Is everyone supposed to get the same meaning from the same words? When I say Fiends, you think one thing and I think another. You say dirt as something that is below you, someone else might say dirt as something that is part of a personal experience for them.
Now obviously I'm not talking about the literal definitions, I'm talking about personal definitions, which we all have.
3. Never said pop culture wasn't sexualized back in the day, I'm well aware of Madonna. I said it's not as nearly sexualized as it is now. Kids back in the day were not doing the multitudes of sexual activity found in our culture now. There is a significant difference of sexuality found in music compared to today and the frequency at which is displayed
Which is how explicit it is, as I already said Lol.
