Miel 15,009 Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 The Swine performance, like the song itself, is really exploratory in terms of the nuances of being in an abusive dynamic, and also recovering from it. She was exploited by a pig, but sometimes felt like she became a pig herself. The dirty one dirtied her up, so to speak. As @ShockPop states, it's about reclaiming that autonomy- but not necessarily in a pleasant, clean, or good way. "My *** felt like trash."

Sandia312 23 Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Well written! agreed headline doesn't jive with the moments you picked (I understand headline was changed by someone from what you originally wrote). But the content is good. The writing is done well. As for the moments themselves... it's your opinion, your thoughts. Not everyone will agree. But I enjoyed reading it. Hope you're not taking all the negative comments to heart. And, hey, the point of journalism, and creative writing, is to provoke thought. By those measures, I say job well done!

I don't know why the editor changed it. And I haven't. I have come to learn GGD has diverse opinions. Besides, it'll better help me in the long haul. I don't think they are wrong either, I guess I just don't see the point with #8 as others do. I really appreciate this comment! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
