I think it's catchy and all, and I respect whats it trying to do, but the whole "skinny bitches"
part kinda makes me roll my eyes. Nothing turns me off more then a "body positivy" song filled with catty mean-girl bullcrap.
Like, can we just once have an actual "body positivy" song that doesn't relay on insulting and pitting other women against each other? I don't ask for much.

[(Anonymous)]

That's the main issue I have with it, too (aside from that the music is just not to my taste).

[(Anonymous)]

The entire skinny bitches part:

I'm bringing booty back
Go ahead and tell them skinny bitches that
No, I'm just playing. I know you think you're fat
But I'm here to tell ya
Every inch of you is perfect from the bottom to the top

It's still body positive.

[sarillia]

Doesn't she still make sure everyone knows that guys totally prefer bodies like hers? I still get a competitive vibe from it in between all the "you're all perfect" even if the bitch comment was taken back a moment later.

[(Anonymous)]

That's certainly the impression I got.

Then there's "You know I won't be no stick figure silicone Barbie doll" like your only options are "have booty" or "be fake." That's not body positivity. There's no way she can know 100% of the time who came by their bodies through implants and lipo and who came by them naturally and yet she's going to get judgemental and call women fake anyway.

[(Anonymous)]

Literally no human woman is built like a Barbie, though. Even slim women don't have those proportions.

[(Anonymous)]

Oh, the eternal absolution of the "I'm just playing!" line again...

[(Anonymous)]

I'm bringing white back
Go ahead and tell them niggers that
No, I'm just playing.



I'm bringing straight back
Go ahead and tell them faggots that
No, I'm just playing.

too late and it'd do you some good to be creative

...wtf are you even trying to say with this? Are you rolling fucking dice?

I'm seriously trying to illustrate a point. Saying something insulting and then saying "nah I'm just kidding" is passive-aggressive bullshit. You aren't just kidding, you fucking mean it, and you're trying to not get in trouble for it.

[(Anonymous)]

productive discussions won't come out of inflammatory examples like this

you might have a point, but it comes off as weak trolling because of how you presented it

[(Anonymous)]

>not knowing please excuse my dear aunt sally

[(Anonymous)]

What?

[(Anonymous)]

I'm not necessarily looking for a discussion, but I see your point.

[(Anonymous)]

You're doing a terrible job of making a point, and you need to reverse the groups you use in your examples, because fat girls are not the group with societal power in this duo. Your examples don't work because no one needs to bring straight or white back, those are groups that already hold privilege and power.

There are women who get told to kill themselves for not being skinny enough. It impacts employment, it impacts health care, it invites massive amounts of harassment in public. Things you get for being non-white and non-straight, though not in the same way or to the same extent-- fat is still far less likely to get you killed.

[(Anonymous)]

We should be allowed to insult anyone who, by complete accident, has societal power. It's positive to insult them and it will totally help things.

[visp]

This. It's not so much "uplifting" as a bunch of Regina George 'sorry-not-sorry' "I'm special because boys think I'm pretty and everyone else sucks." The entire song is based around what she's not and why she's sooooo much better than those "fake", "silicone," "barbie doll," "size 2," "ain't real," "photoshop," "stick-figure," "skinny-bitches-no-I'm-just-kidding," types.

Also, would it have killed them to add more bass to the song?

[(Anonymous)]

Very much agree but it also might be cathartic for some to have a song be insulting to all the girls in their childhood and adolescence who called them fat. I get the feeling that's where this song came from. So I'm not saying it's good but I can also empathize with it being a woman of size myself.
