Noah 26,941 Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 http://www.playboy.com/articles/ed-sheeran-has-a-toxic-masculinity-problem?utm_source=TWITTER&utm_medium=Playboy&utm_campaign=Playboy.com (Some Interesting Parts of the Article) 'Most women have probably encountered the otherworldly scorn of a male underdog. Yes, confident Bernie bros and fresh Deloitte recruits will definitely do chauvinistic things like introduce you to their moms only to ghost you and hit you up a month later for a 3 a.m. booty call. But underdogs—and by that I mean men who have never felt sufficient physically, sexually, socially or professionally—cut deep. When you date an underdog, he’ll gleefully go down on you for hours and tell you you’re the best sex he’s ever had—until you break up with him, after which he’ll call you a slut on Facebook. He’ll twist your words to prove you’re evil and post images with other women on Instagram to get your attention. In Ed Sheeran’s case, he’ll write reductive revenge songs that are low-key misogynistic while slurring in interviews about all the women who’ve been kind enough to **** him.' 'I actually tried to address this three years ago when his song “Don’t” hit the radio, but my editor at the time told me he “just wasn’t seeing it.” The rampant misogyny of “Don’t,” however, is plain in the lyrics. The first verse glorifies him calling a girl he just met “another mistake” and then goes into a long rant about being confused about her intentions, all because he can’t figuring out whether she wants to **** him or just be friends. (There’s no attempt to think that perhaps she wants to do both—or that a woman’s desires change over time.)' 'Let’s now consider Justin Bieber’s cheekily titled “Love Yourself,” cowritten by Sheeran. Before being approved for radio play, the song was originally titled “**** Yourself,” and Sheeran has admitted that it’s an angry letter to a girl who dumped him. In that song, Sheeran rips his ex for only sleeping with him for his money and fame, while again, saying he was unbothered by all of it “You think you broke my heart, oh girl for goodness sake / You think I’m crying, on my own well I ain’t.”' 'Considering that Pitchfork gave Divide a 2.8 rating and scathing review, it doesn’t seem like this record, or what will likely be a tour of stadiums filled with soccer moms and 15-year-olds, are going to boost Sheeran’s confidence. In the meantime, one pro tip I have to offer the future Ed is to quit trashing women. You may be a guy who likes to up his allure by making it known how easy it is for you to reject women, but honestly, most of us women just remember as the guy who sharted on stage. And no, that **** wedding song “Thinking of You,” which so cooly mentions how crowds “remember his name,” doesn’t make up for anything. The next time you feel like asserting yourself over a woman, here’s a word of advice: Don’t.' ⟡ ⋆ ˚｡⋆🦢⋆ ˚｡⋆⟡ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hELXIG 42,954 Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 Just in general I get this vibe from him of an underdog who noone paid attention to, who then became very popular and turned into a douchebag, but who still knows how to play the 'innocent nice-guy' routine when it suits his needs. I could be wrong, but it's what I feel. I'll be myself until they fūcking close the coffin. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
