Thank you, thank you, thank you for articulating perfectly why the song and the quote pisses me off so much and has from the first time I heard either.

I'm the whitest white girl who ever whited, and even I can see why it's a huge slap in the face to PoCs. And I don't claim to be even remotely educated about race in general or about the intersectionality of feminism, race, and class.

Plus...John Lennon of all people claiming to speak for women. Yeaaaaaaaah. How about no.

Merely pointing out that I'm NHF a whole lotta people trying to whitesplain to someone why they shouldn't be pissed off by that John Lennon quote.

This is a case of people ought to sit down and just fucking *listen* when someone points out the really unfortunate implications of shit like this.

I never could put my finger on why the quote bothered me as much as it did, nor could I ever explain it properly. Lotesse did and for that I thank her. I'm just boggled that people are jumping on her for it.
