Re: How is Blurred Lines rapey?

At what point did I say Thicke wasn't an asshole? I'm merely saying the song isn't rapey. It's kind of creepy and assholish. That is not the same as rapey

How is saying him saying he knows better than what the girl is telling him when it comes to consent not rapey?

When it comes in the context of him trying to convince her to sleep with him.

The entire point is that he has to convince her.

I think the criticism should be phrased as "Thicke is perpetuating rape culture". Much like people who say "she was asking for it" are not committing rape themselves, they're still contributing to incredibly unhealthy attitudes. I think that's what people mean when they say the song is "rapey"; they don't mean the guy in the song is an actual rapist, or intending to rape, but that his attitude is indicative of rape culture's influence. And we've all heard of the studies that showed that media and humor play a strong factor in how people perceived rape and its seriousness.
