House music sexist to women?

It's a j/k.... it's gotta be


Why it's no doubt that if someone thought this way about house music (while ignoring rap....which is the most derrogatory and sexist to women)then they are most definately:

moustache wearing
2 left foot dancing
gun toting
cross dressing
hairy legged
tone deaf
hermaphrodites with a biatch complex


they'd have to be to hate house music

I thought this was 'bout drugs.... what you got for me to snort/smoke/ingest/enjoy.

Go figure.

Meh, they tried to ban filesharing too, and it only got bigger.

Who knows? Maybe this could be good for the music.

"One thing is for certain however," she concluded. "When those sexist hatemongers Push released 'Universal Nation' they weren't referring to the kind of Universal Nation that included a gendered or lesbian perspective, that's for sure."



oh i didnt notice this before...


i pitty stockwell residents who dig "house" that will have to suffer if they get their way...

Wow, this has got to be one of the stuipidest thins I've read, anywhere. Granted, I can see that a lot of dance music has a lot of sexual innuendos and connotations that may not be pro-woman, but then again, take a look at hip-hop, pop, and any other mainstream music genre, where the objectifying of women is strongly apparent. A proposal for a ban is just ridiculous. Not to discredit feminists, but if this is the best form of argument that they can take, it really does not say much for their intelect levels when it comes to forming some logical and plausible solution for any given problem. It seems that more and more, the only way they can spread "girl power" is by demeaning and belittling some other form of society. Pathetic if you ask me.

Looks like some feminist group got pretty desperate to get their name in the papers.

That article looks very satirical to me, I don't think it was meant to be taken as anything more than a joke.

I'd say that (IMO) dance music is the least sexist of any genre. It's always been about being open and accepting.

well that and the freakin' fact that more than whut, 70% (???) of the songs DONT HAVE WORDS in them!!!

if they they do, they are also often non-sensical vocalas

Is this some belated April Fool's joke? This is the most ridiculous thing I've read in ages.


Posted by milos on Apr-07-2005 16:26:

dance music: sexist? no. dance music: sexy? yes!

either way, i think that story was fabricated.

ITS FUCKING GAY PEOPLE THAT STARTED THIS MUSIC FOR GOD SAKE!!!

Meet her at the love parade is sexist??? Does she even know what the Love Parade is? The ONLY house song ive ever heard that is sexist and promotes violence is "beat that bitch with a bat". Even the examples shadow wolf provided were booty bass dance music and not house music.



I was about to post the exact same thing. In fact, it's that statement in the article which made me think the whole thing was either a joke, or the writer had absolutely no idea what they were talking about.

"The beats and samples that constitute the heart of dance music are inherently misogynistic," she claimed. "As a musical genre 'Banging House' does nothing less than promote violence against women in the home. On a wider scope it all points to women as domestic subserviants- the term House itself is nothing more than a nasty masquerade for Kitchen as far as I'm concerned, and do you really think the "Hoover" samples used universally in hard house are a co-incidence? And even the basic recorded format is typical of the male obsessed domain- the music is all recorded onto '12 inch' vinyl. Surprise surprise."


AHAHAHA

Oh man someone find this woman's contact info so I can tell her to go back to the kitchen and cook me a steak.
