wow, are women not ashamed that their gender is portrayed like this?

pen, iqqi, comments?

now guys, notice something about this video, its what ive been talking about. notice how the guy is treated as this dumb guy who is like a dog, just dangle a treat in front of him and he'll come. more and more women are seeing men like they do pets, as accessories to their life, like a chihuahua or a new handbag.

and the sad thing is this stuff sells.

and not only that, but the GOOD girl gets tossed aside at the end. basically telling guys 'the b*tch is the girl you want."

i can't believe we peddle this sh*t to young people. it's worse than if we forced them to smoke.

apparently this is a popular song also. i mean, wtf is going on. the guy is singing about how its normal to be suicidal when your chic dumps you.

man the younger generation is f*cked in the head.

I clicked on it, but as soon as I saw what song it was for I immediately hit back before the music could start. I hate that song! It's the most annoying sh!t EVER. It makes me want to crash my car into a tree.

Having said that... I think its a joke. Avril is always trying to be the anti pop chick, and the video is pop chick to the worst degree, times a billion. "She's so whatever..." I am pretty sure she is trying to be cheeky.

She looks awful, as well. Paris and Britney style doesn't suit her.

Anyways, I found something that might be more to your liking. It starts off slow... but just keep watching.

I also hate that sean kingston song. but i love his take you there song.

We can go to the tropics
Sip piña coladas
Shorty I could take you there(I could take ya there..take ya)
Or we can go to the slums
Where killas get hung
Shorty I could take you there


Lol. You gotta give the guy props. He offered to take the chic to the slums where killers get hung, lol!

In that beautiful girls song, I am pretty sure he is being full of sh!t. Either that or he should definately kill himself.

Then again... now he is wealthy, has status, and can be a good provider, so he should be able to get a nice quality woman... right STR8UP?

 

[joekerr31]

haha. hilarious in the end how the guy hits on his friends girl.

i think i never was plugged in to the matrix because i grew up on stuff like megadeth.

'whaddaya mean i ain't kind? just not your kind."

still amazes me how the heavy metal commentary of the 80s is just as revelant today as it was back then.

 

[KontrollerX]

Man I hate Avril Lavigne.

What a fvckin phony.

Music chicks to me that seem real who have music worth listening to are Gwen Stefani and Bif Naked.

What are you guys talking about?

"notice how the guy is treated as this dumb guy who is like a dog, just dangle a treat in front of him and he'll come. more and more women are seeing men like they do pets, as accessories to their life, like a chihuahua or a new handbag."

Go look at Motley Crue's "Girls Girls Girls" and you'll see the same, but with different genders.

It goes both ways gents.

thats the point! when men are now treated the way bimbos in a motley crue video are treated, you can bet your bottom dollar we are hitting new lows and the matrix is growing even stronger.

Joker i have posted this stuff up before.

The suicide song got to number one in the UK and nearly ALL girls play it. (I think the young guy is a master DJ and knows how to play them TBH about it, I think he knows EXACTLY what he is doing)

Yes, women are over inflated in the western sphere.

Also what you missed about the first video:

The GF has feminin traits, the singer has maculine traits, hence the feminine is made to look foolish, whist the masculine female is made to look positive.

That Sean Kingston song makes me want to fvcking vomit.

That kid needs to pick up some B.I.G and 2pac CD's and learn about the concept of money over b!tches.

The irony is that Avril is married. You wont see her out with a flavor of the week boy toy that gets disposed of when she's tired of him. Unlike other pop stars

Well I guess the reality is that most "love songs" EVER written (at least when a man sings) are completely AFC.

This kind of sucks because I loved many of those songs growing up. I still like the artists themselves, but half the time when I hear a song like that I used to like, I just have to turn it off now. It's like turning your back on a friend.

I did not realize the full extent of the Matrix.

This is why I listen to lots of house and dance music now. Keeps me in a good mood without any flowery lyrics over it.

I can just imagine some poor school kid walking up to a chick now and singing "suicidal" or passing her a note that says "suicidal". Yikes.

There is no irony, when you condense it:

Feminine Girl:
Geek, glasses, acts girly around the guy.

Can be found in MOST CHICK FLICKS about HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS.

Masculine Girl:
Dominent, brash, abusive, offencive, materilistic (dress style, different wardrobe (stage, clips), geek girl has one set of cloths).

CAN BE FOUND IN MOST CHICK FLICKS, when SHE CONFORMS, CONFORMS<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

And she is selling a typical western PACKAGE, that is been CONSUMED, hence MONEY!

No IRONY at all.

Welcome to 'MODERN DAY AVERAGE WESTERN WOMEN'

Keto, dont jump on this HAS ALL WOMEN.

Yes your off ignore

well the truth is that these 'kids', and avril is still a 'kid' in my eyes, aren't even writing these songs. nor are they the ones coming up with these video ideas.

this stuff is created by 'producers'.

the problem with the media, and i've mentioned this before, is that its totally out of touch with reality. and its one thing to have a little 'escape' from reality, but what the media is pumping out in huge quantities is the notion that 'reality sucks, but hey, this fantasy is awesome.'

its the halo effect. they take a song that sounds good, pair it up with some shallow dysfunctional way of thinking, and suddenly the dysfunctional way of thinking seems 'good'.

i mean, look at britney spears. if you look at her videos you'd think this chic has it all. but in REALITY she's an overweight, divorced single mother that most of the world laughs at.

build em up tear em down, its the hollywood formula.

so all these 'pop stars' pumping this sh*t out, will wake up one day to find out that the beast they fueled has turned on them and they will become the butt of the jokes.

Its all kids sh$t as far I'm concerned. I remember when I was a teen you had dudes listening to slayer or king diamond and all these metal bands talking about satan, blood, 666, and all this crap.

Music is always going to be a bunch of weird fantasies, its what the kids want.

The wholesome stuff is out there but its not selling. see: boring.

But yes, over time whats acceptable has gotten more and more liberal.

 

[bsthatcher]

Hmm... always thought the song was catchy, never took it seriously though.

Why?

It's Avril. I mean, c'mon, you know she's just words. She's got the punk attitude but you know beneath it all, she's just talk.

She's not like some femi-nazi. Being Avril, it's almost tongue-in-cheek.

(By the way, my age should be showing in my posts, don't know why it isn't)

 

[penkitten]

i think avril is trying to be like pink, making fun of the pop stuff, like a joke video kind of thing. the only thing is , kids my daughters age, have learned the lyrics on the bus ride home and this does them no good, or me....

 

[KarmaSutra]

This tops to the pops sh!t is stuff I wouldn't feed a skunk ape. Pure foolishness and worse it promotes mental retardation.

I'm proud to say I was raised on Rush, Boston, The Doors, Led Zeppelin and now Tool. Music to expound our consiousness.

 

[KontrollerX]

Amen Karma.

Same here man.
