She's anachronistic - her style and repertoire is digging well back to 19th C. Most people can't remember or value much about _any_ culture before the 1960s. Appreciation of her sort of musicianship (regardless of era) is not valued as much as it used to be.
Lol I'm a full on lefty and I adore Nelly and I know this song is ment to be ironic but being totally honest certain types of feminists does have do no sense of humour, some border on militant and terrifying lol so their is a grain of truth to this line of thinking
Any large group is guaranteed to contain some nuts and wack-a-doodles. Feminism happens to have some of the most, uh, _vocal and uptight_ as any. If it had (at least a quasi-comprehensible) cosmology and definite statements concerning 'what happens after we die", it would be a religion. Some consider it to be such already.
Amy McGraw-Pate "Assuming my emotional state", what the fuck are you talking about. Also, if I am not "funny's sole judge." Then why are you somehow by saying they are funny. Hypocrites...
Haha!! Hilarious and stupid, that women want equal rights with men. I mean, birth control? Fair wages? Freedom from sexual harassment on and off the media? PFFF!! Grow up!!
@@PumpedAaron The sad SAD truth is this: nobody has assurance of freedom from sexual harrassment. Not when the most rapes are performed in jail by males against other male inmates, every day by the 1000s. If you want to laugh at that, too - feel free, I guess.
She's so brilliant! What a performer.
Brought here by Sarkesian's Straw Feminist video. Very pleased!
Same!
Love Nellie!...Witty, with a great stage presence! Why she isn't more widely admired is a mystery to me. Too political for some folks?
I only discovered her two days ago, she is brilliant ! x

Those folks like to burry their heads in the sand.
"I'm Michelle Bachman and I approve this message"...her send-ups, layered...send-ups of send-ups. Spoofing perfection.
I love her.
The song is called `Mother of Pearl` !
I love this song. I am a feminist and vegetarian and just based on those facts people think I'm no fun. Jokes on them tho, I'm hilarious.
I like meaty tacos. Hope that was funny for you.
@Radio Ardilla Only if your mom is a cow.
Humour is subjective.
Sure took you a long time to admit and tell us that.. you are vegan and feminist. I hope it's a phase for you.
She's such a bad-ass!
Nellie, doll baby, you gotta get Melanie Safka to do Candles in the Rain with you then give the song to Tulsi Gabbard's presidential campaign!!!!!!!
What a Patty/Selma impression when she does the man's voice!
I support equality for women. Nellie Is cool.
Vegan and feminist. Fun at parties. 😐
Mockery counts as humor, right?
I dunno you’d be MUCH prettier if you smiled more
🤷♂️
Every feminist I’ve ever met has laughed right in my face.

However that statement can apply to pretty much any "group"

Okay, I've heard enough.

In the comments: smooth-brained feminists proving exactly what the song is talking about
cry more, moid
Lisssen, cephalic
Is this even Satire?
It's sarcasm.
Feminists aren't funny but I do laugh AT then.
Because they say so much bullshit it makes me laugh
Amy McGraw-Pate Calm down lol.

Odd. Usually Nellie McKay is pretty funny. i'm still waiting for the joke.
That's NOT FUNNY!😡
Maybe you don't understand the concept of irony
@@Jellyroll66 I adore irony, I'm just really bad at sarcasm & I posted my favorite feminist quote
@@falllinemaniac oh, right, I had no idea x
This is horrible.
