Why does that person need to give up this one, though? What does avoiding something you like actually do? Does it cause like... little microfractures in the patriarchy every time you resist the temptation to consume media you like but know has issues?

Because I lived that way for a while, and you know? I never saw evidence of those microfractures. I'm pretty sure the patriarchy remained as powerful as ever. All it did was make me doubt myself. That's not a very effective weapon, in my opinion.

It sounds like the OP likes the music and vocals, but doesn't like the lyrics. There is a world full of music out there, it's possible to find songs that bring pure pleasure without the annoyances. Some music I like enough to overlook the sexism, some I don't. What does avoiding something you like actually do? Nothing. What does avoiding something you like but also kind of hate do? Sometimes it brings peace of mind.

Okay, then I read it differently, as I said above. Probably wrongly, but I thought it was less "I love the beat and hate the lyrics" but more "I like the lyrics being snarky and fun, but then I go 'Wait, why is that "being a girl?" and feel guilty for laughing." And I don't think that's necessary. I don't think being aware should mean giving up stuff we like. I don't have any problem with "Whoa, that's so creepy I don't like it at all."
