Wannabe Parody

[(Anonymous)]

Am I a terrible feminist for thinking the Wannabe Parody wasn't that... great?

I liked them showing different girls, and I LOVED the message. But it just wasn't that amazing, especially as you could literally miss the written messages with a blink of an eye, which I did at first because I blinked. I dunno, I just didn't find it as empowering as everyone else seems to.

You were a terrible feminist long before that parody came out.

It's lazy. I wouldn't call it a parody. They are just dancing to the actual song. It is just a really boring video. They could have changed some words or something.

A much better parody would be something like the Bad Romance: Suffrage video. Which was taken down on youtube (because youtube is an asshole). But that won't stop Schooltube from keeping it up! http://www.schooltube.com/video/1e9258174ff647078e58/

AYRT - Yeah, exactly.

Oh, I saw that one. It is CHILLING. And that's the sort of thing I expect, not dancing around happily past a sign that says "end child marriage."

Honestly, on a rewatch I definitely see what you mean by literally missing the messages. The one about child marriages was on screen for like 2 seconds.

That Suffrage video was really well done! Thanks for linking to that. :D

As for the Wannabe Parody.... It seems too broad? And it felt a lot like "here's a bunch of hot ladies twerking in various 'ethnic' costumes, oh and also #wannabe!" Like, how is this video helping with any of these issues that get two seconds of screen time? Is it just raising awareness, and if so, is this an effective way to raise awareness of these issues? Especially since these issues only get a brief mention without any statistics or further info? If this campaign actually has more concrete goals than to get people to watch a cutesy video or make their own videos then what are they?

idk, it just seems very much all flash and no substance.

What is it? am I a terrible feminist for not knowing?

Re: Wannabe Parody

[kaijinscendre]

No. It isn't that amazing. https://youtu.be/sZQ2RUFd54o

I've seen it now. You're wrong.

I'd be happier with less skinny women, but the messages are kinda vital, so no, you're objectively wrong.

Re: Wannabe Parody

[kaijinscendre]

The messages (except for the last one) are on screen for all of 2 seconds at a time. If they wanted to actually convey their message they should have kept the writing on screen long enough for people to read.

The messages are great, the video sucks.

Can people quit starting questions with stuff like "am I a terrible feminist?" "am I a bad person?" etc. It's obnoxious.
