ALGAYDO 32,745 Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Good. This whole “I’m not really gay/bi but imma sing about it in a shallow, superficial way in order to get sales and streams” is annoying af lol sure the song was meant to be a light, fun song, and Rita herself is Bi, but that doesn’t excuse the fact that they tried exploiting both gay/bi women but also straightbois’ fetish for lesbians lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enigma 7,182 Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 You’re all in for bicuriosity but when someone talks about it without making an official coming out it’s suddenly not ok ? I’d rather have them do this than fake that they’re bisexual only to make people shut up. When Charli did the exact same song about boys you didn’t blink an eye. But now that it’s about girls they should make a whole pledge of allegiance to the LGBT community ? For people who say homosexuality shouldn’t be a big deal that’s sure as hell ironic.

babyboo 965 Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 5 hours ago, JesseBabe said: I personally don't think Rita owed anybody an apology for HER story. And why is it bad that not everyone in this song identifies as part of the LGBTQ community? Should we not be able to promote bi-curiosity without it turning into this huge ordeal? It's a fun, light hearted pop song about experimenting. I don't think it was made to be taken THIS seriously by some people. Wait are u the one who's in a lot of satc clips comment section on YT?

Baduizm 551 Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 As a lesbian, I can understand how this song might offend some. But I really choose to recognize the song for what it is, a fun summer bop. I like to get drunk and kiss girls too... The apology seemed heartfelt and i hope those that were offended can accept it! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ummm they weren't saying you've never been discriminated against... They said your experience will never be the same as sapphic women and sapphic women of color. It's true that people of different sexualities, gender, and race will not experience the same thing, even though we are all under the umbrella of LGBT+. We don't live the same lives. You sound like people who deny white privilege just because they have experienced hardships People have differing experiences, it is how it is.
