Unprovoked 'one punch' attacks are now subject to harsh penalties in Australia unless the perpetrator is a woman in which case she gets off with a small fine as usual.

In actuality the original playing of the song had the roles reversed in which a woman played as the offending party

The only possible good that can come from this controversy is that people watch the clip from Neptune's Daughter, and then watch everything else that the beautiful Esther Williams was in - reset your standards to a time when there was a warily respectful mutual understanding between the sexes grounded in a realism about sexual differences.

In Neptune's Daughter, Betty Garrett was the actress making the move on Red Skelton. Garrett was a serial abuser by Current Year standards - her assault on innocent 105lb Frank Sinatra can be seen in On The Town

Ha, I knew this was coming. The first time I really listened to the song was a few years ago around the time the whole hype about Blurred Lines was going on, and I was thinking "man, I'm surprised feminists haven't taken an issue with this one." I guess it was just a matter of time

[–]rg57 1 point2 points3 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

It just goes to show how distorted things have become.

Back in those times, sex was regarded as negatively as it is now, except that the shame was on the person who caved in to advances, rather than on the person who made the advances.

So in order to maintain their honor, women had to make a show of brushing off advances, and appearing to be not interested.

We need sexual egalitarians to tell the tradcons and feminists both to back off, and let people simply enjoy each other without all the games imposed from outside. Now, some people LIKE the games. That's fine for them, and this song can be for them. But to impose it on everyone (or ban it for everyone) is wrong.

I'm not sure which way to vote. I rolled my eyes and said, "of course," but think it's stupid.

It's a pretty messed up song, but I'm not sure if it promotes rape. The dude is a little scummy, but not a rapist. It has been a while aince I've heard the song though.

I'm going to penetrate you against your will cause baby, it's cold outside. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

[–]omegaphallic 1 point2 points3 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

He's not being scummy. The song is about giving the woman a pretext to explain away having sex with him without having to take any kind of personal responsiblity.

Seriously do you think merely saying its cold outside magically compels someone to jump on your cock like so magical enchantment. It gives her an excuse to do what she wanted to do anyways.

[–]ThePigmanAgain -1 points0 points1 point 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

It's a suspect song but i don't think it should be banned. Hell, Amy Schumer actually raped a guy and i don't see feminists trying to get her banned!
