The only reason I found myself to be shocked was that it is currently on Youtube and hasn't been taken down yet but yet rihanna's S&M was taken down entirely and Britney's Criminal music video had an age lock on it..... and there wasn't any nudity!

Um......I like the beat. :blink:

Just repeat to yourself, "It's just a show. I should really just relax."

On the one hand, there are positive elements to this video. Not all the women here are super young which goes against the belief that only young people should be naked. Not all the women are slim which goes against the belief that only slim people should be naked. Not all the women are super attractive or surgically enhanced or covered in make up which goes against the belief that women should look pretty and perfect at all times. And all these women have pubic hair (a full on bush in most cases) which goes against the belief that all women should be shaved down there, even though they're adults so should have hair there. So, that stuff is at least positive.

But...at the end of the day, it's just trying to be shocking for the sake of it and that's when it becomes exploitation and I don't like that. I definitely didn't like how this is supposed to be a feminist video and yet these women were molesting an unconscious woman. There's nothing remotely feminist about that and there's something really wrong with you if you think it's somehow acceptable or a turn on because it's women doing the molesting. Let me get this straight - if it was men molesting women, you'd all be up in arms but because it's woman on woman, it's ok and fun and feminist? This is where it can be very frustrating to be a feminist who believes in the traditional values of it and wants to see women get on in the world. We won't move ahead if we keep putting forward the idea of women being mistreated as some kind of erotic fantasy. Men don't feel the need to do this to themselves, why should we? Ultimately, there's no progressive message in this work as it just falls back on using the same old formula of objectifying women. Just because they're not the most photogenic and acting rough around the edges doesn't mean this is any different from the mainstream media's way of objectifying women. Any p**n video where women are mistreated will have images like this on it. I don't get how it's pro woman at all. Being naked in itself isn't some sort of battle won for women. "Yay! We're naked!....Now what?" What does it achieve?

Yes, Peaches does have political and social messages in her work but that doesn't mean we should like it or think she's putting these messages forward in the best way. She's been making songs like this for 20 years now. Shouldn't making all this explicit stuff feel so overdone to her now? How many times can she sing about vaginas and how great they are? How many songs can one make about such a topic before it becomes not shocking and just tired? I think that's why I wasn't enamoured by her album - she just puts down the same "shocking" concepts over and over and all she can seem to do is shock. She's done it so many times that it just feels like re-hashes of her old work. Give us something different, a new way of looking at things.
