      roni thacker I don’t think the actual color of a black womans vagina is A. Any of ur (or my) business and B. Important to the video?
      Pink symbolizes a lot of things! For example, the Lesbian pride flag is pink and this video is obviously about the Love two women have for each other. It’s also the color of the pussy hats worn during the March For Women and it’s a color that’s been, adopted ? By the feminist movement.
      Maybe I’m interrupting this wrong, but maybe pynk means more in the song than the color of a vagina, but refers closer to sapphic love?
      And even if the song is about pink vags the women in it are still shown dancing/jumping/smiling/etc. in a way black women aren’t presented in most media.

Idk I just like hot people lol) and it makes me really happy. It’s saying that it’s okay for me to be a sexual being, but that I am still more than that, if that makes any sense? It doesn’t make me feel dirty like when I get catcalled or when someone stares at my body. Idk if I’m making any sense lol but hopefully someone sees this and gets it. 💜

      Pancake 77 i I said a more modern cover the songs trying to be futuristic. then it's with that same old political b******* that every other f****** artist is doing getting political going feminist and lesbian acting like it's something new when people like Freddy Mercury and the Village People and a lot of other artists throughout the 80s been done that a long time ago. Basically everything's been done this isn't shocking this isn't new this isn't life changing get over it. It's cheap it's stupid and a woman's vagina and her sexuality is not her strength. Also only white women have pink of vaginas so there's a lot of white appropriation

      Janelle Monáe's alleged "artistry" is laughable, to put it mildly. She'll never be big, because she just doesn't have the talent to attract a wide audience. She can only appeal to her tiny group of immature fans who are foolish enough to confuse outrageously vulgar behavior with meaningful art. Taylor Swift, to name one example, doesn't need to wear labia pants in order to get attention.

      I thought the pants and pushing the girl through it was a little too much (a little too obvious and silly for me...), but other than that it wasn’t that bad. I think some people aren’t gonna like the booties and the sex cell panties and all the _generally_ inappropriate things (not normally seen and obvious to what they’re trying to talk about). Definitely wasn’t expecting this to be about vaginas though lol, but it is very obvious. Many people will just see that as obscene right off the bat because of that lol. Not really sure how you guys are surprised actually 🤔
      Also, people might not like that it’s sexual. Like, all of these women are attractive and similar looking (general image of sexy for a girl) and they put sex cells on the panties lol, but vaginas are also reproductive cells. Like they’re made for reproduction, not for little girl panty time. Just a thought lol

      It's because it's not about sexual exploitation, it's about sexual liberation. This video is amazing and beautiful because these women aren't being used like product placement, and sex (and sexuality) isn't being sold, but celebrated.

      @@hbtv3765 I don't think it necessarily SHOWS the issues women have to deal with. The video allows women to claim being "sexual" without it having anything to do with men. It is about women, for women, and is not to corrupt our minds (to others who have said that, not you). I just think that some people may feel particularly challenged by the video, and yes, that can be the point, but it also is simply there for anyone who is a female.

I am so glad to hear that people like him are fighting back. It definitely proves her point about the struggles a lot of people face on a daily basis and I am also glad that she speaks out against this problem. Same goes with other topics like race, sex, religion, etc. I am definitely more informed now.

      First Last Lol. It's not because someone is queer than she's portraying it or talking about it. I said it was up to interpretations because if you pay closer attention to the lyrics it's simply a girl talking about another girl's vagin. Really, you can read it like they are having sex and she's enjoying it and talking about how gorgeous the vagina of her partner looks OR it's just about two straight women enjoying artistically their mutual womenhood/vaginas (considering it is still such a taboo to talk, portray in a glamourous, ordinar way this genital, it's a great message of women empowerment) OR it can be both. See, Up to interpretations. Eitheir way I'm in love with this song.

    Me encanta el significado que tiene PYNK en esta Joya de canción 💕 "Pynk es el color que nos une a todos, ya que el rosa es el color que se encuentra en los rincones más profundos y oscuros de los humanos en todas partes... Pink es donde nace el futuro."

      I have never met one person that hates black people, women, or queerness in this day and age. Of course there are very few and there always will be but they get ostracized as they should. And I’ve lived all over. The problem is the people that probably side with you, have a problem with entitlement. Which is why I feel bad for them. Because they blame their problems on anything but them instead of doing something about it. But as for the song, it was super sexy and better than most music I hear as of late but that’s not saying much.

      +Lilly Stark you're very privileged to live in a place where hatred isn't well-accepted and abundant but don't assume that our experience is the same as yours.

    • @baileystark7629
      @baileystark7629 6 років тому

      Isadore Weiss I won’t assume anything because anything is possible. But generally speaking, that experience is the same if you live in America. The problem comes to human psychology. Someone like you, or the socially far left, saying “Your privileged” is indirectly backing the mindset of “I’m not privileged.” This concept often sprouts from insecurity due to a lack of understanding of oneself at some point in someone’s life. That then leaves you vulnerable. You can take two actions, put your energy into your passions and developing as your own person. Or band wagon onto an existing rhetoric or idea that may or may not be true to satisfy your innate desire to fight for something. Problem is that that innate desire is so strong a lot of times that you’ll believe and perceive things a certain way just to fit a rhetoric that you adopted to feed that hunger more quickly as opposed to developing as a person and following your passions. It’s like instant gratification for that hunger that doesn’t satisfy in the long run. And then you get tricked into thinking that instant answer to your hunger is your passion. That is all based in psychology, but they don’t teach that part.

      cnscm2614 idek. I'm gonna speculate: using curse words?, being constantly pornographic? (To clarify eating a banana in a suggestive way is pornographic while seeing a naked body in doctors photos or admiring the lighting isn't pornographic.) Like they focused more on party/friendship thingys. However, there were more porno shots with like saliva & such. So... I guess OP admires the foreplay while being sex-neutral (meaning not sex-negative or sex-positive. The former shames people for being sexual, the later shames people for saying no to sex or encourages hypersexuality.)

      There's so much wrong to unpack in both of your comments, I can't even.
      In a video about celebrating femininity & gayness by a talented Black woman, you have to shit on white dudes? If you "know so many that like it", why were you unsurprised? As previously stated, it was NOT Elon. But, why, bc Ben is male? White? He's not, he's Jewish, and his wife is Moroccan. Your entire, racial bullshit was completely unnecessary. But its "woke" to hate on white dudes, especially on poc/lgbt stuff... Irony is missed by the foolish.
