This song isn’t only about like beauty standards in society it’s also about sexual assault and how as young girls we get taught that “boys will be boys” and if he’s mean to you he likes you, the “that’s my bad that’s my bad no one taught him not to grab” are my favorite lyrics cause it goes to show that woman are blamed for sexual assault like “what were you wearing” but men are given an excuse like oh “he wasn’t raised like that, boys will be boys, he’s a man he couldn’t control himself, etc.) it’s one of my favorite songs on the album bcs of that
" Oh, it's not my fault! My friends dared me to " or " Oh, I didn't mean to, I wasn't sober/I was drunk" ( both words * sober and drunk * mean the same thing but, I was including both because their both things they say ) I want to let everyone know that I am aware that men are also raped and that there is a big amount of men that are ashamed of what other males do and are fully in support of females getting the rights they deserve but, I made this comment because...well...I'm honestly not sure why I made this comment, it just felt right but still, I don't think that anybody should feel guilty because of what somebody that was the same race or gender as them or even in their family/bloodline did something to somebody that was cruel and, the fact that people do feel that way, makes me sad and I feel very bad for them, also anybody, no matter what gender or race they are that does something bad, like rape, sexual assault, abuse or even robbery need to be put in jail, but I'm sure you all knew that already.
Honestly they always get the “well he’s a guy it’s expected” when we get “you’re a lady, you need to be better”. When a girl is harassed or assaulted the question is always “what was she wearing, what was she doing out that late at night, or why was she being so friendly”. I remember once I asked my brother if he saw a girl passed out at a party would you take advantage of that? He said straight away No I’m not a monster. If we raise boys to respect women in any circumstance, and hold them accountable when don’t; instead of giving them the “boys will be boys” green pass the world would be a safer place for women
Finding out that women shaving their armpits/legs/vag was a beauty standard set bc razor companies wanted to sell to a wider demographic is what lowkey stopped me from shaving. I still do it if I'm gonna wear shorts or something, but we really need to question why certain standards are set. Most of the time it's to make a profit.
both parties are definitely NOT responsible for assault but i see what you guys are trying to say... "putting yourself in a dangerous situation" isnt taking responsibility for the assault since the situation shouldnt be dangerous to begin with. men shouldnt be thinking about a woman showing skin as something "promiscuous"... i think u missed a point in how sarcastic melanies lyrics were but i am glad u are still discussing the topic and bringing awareness to it
i agree, i think women (and anyone in general) should be able to wear whatever they want without having to worry about how a man will react to them or if they can manage to keep their hands to themselves. instead of women having to "choose wisely" abt what to wear, men need to learn to control themselves and have the basic decency to let them be
You can't really control how bad people behave. "Teaching men how to behave" doesn't solve the problem, as there will always be r*pists who know what they're doing is wrong, just like how there will always be criminals or p*dophiles. People just need to learn to defend themselves or just stay away from dangerous circumstances as much as possible.
But it’s kinda common sense. You should cover yourself because there are r@posts out there and you should be strapped because there are killers out there….
melanie saying "it's my fault cause i put icing on top, now the boys want a taste of the strawberrys shortcake" is literally a critic on you guys' point of view that both people have the fault in a sexual assault situation. it's not the victim's fault, never. women should be allowed to "put icing on top" without boys sexually traumatizing them
Honestly, how she kept her composure at the end there is amazing to me. Mr. Beard just said the exact opposite of what the video was against. It was spotlighting how girls are told they are responsible for assaults on their bodies due to how they dress, rather than people calling out the pieces of shit that assault them. Boys and men should be taught to control themselves-It shouldn’t be that girls should be taught to not dress in a way that would tempt them. Anyone that victim-blames is every bit a monster as the one that did the assault.
The lyrics it's my fault, it's my fault cause I put icing on top, cause the boys want a taste of the strawberry shortcake are sarcastic and the lyrics got sent home because my skirt is too short these lyrics are pointing out how in our society we put blame on young girls and women and what they are wearing for getting sexually harassed or how in schools when girls wear skirt and shorts that are not even revealing much get sent home because teachers and the principals claim that it will distract young boys and male teachers
@@fosminclorinwomen shouldnt have to feel like they are walking on eggshells all the time. why do they have to be cautious of every single thing around them because of a mans actions? its their fault for not keeping their hands to themselves. (this goes for both genders, also i know im late)
When she said “it’s my fault” that’s literally verbatim what they tell girls “it’s your fault why were you there? It’s your fault you should have been wearing more clothes” to the point we literally start thinking maybe it was my fault
I love y'alls analysis! I am constantly looking for Melanie Martinez content, and the way you really dissect the lyrics and meanings behind it, it feels like an essay on one of my favorite English class topics! Thanks for putting this content out there!! I love it so much!
Another good Melanie song where she talks about bodies and compares bodies to cake (lol weird it happens twice) is her older song Cake. It's a bonus track off her first album, and one of my faves. Super underrated.
One of my favorite songs. Love the fact you guys are talking real things. My sister and I created a little choreo to this one and holds a special place in my heart.
At 14:50 I’m not sure how but you both completely threw the entire point of the song out the window. Literally the entire song is saying it should not matter what a women or man has on they should never ever be touched without consent. To hear you say “it’s a two way street” and “ both party’s are responsible” is pretty fuckin disgusting honestly. I hope next time you take the time to think about your words before saying them.
love the melanie videos!! although, at 14:20 i disagree. just like melanie said "instead of making me feel bad for the body i got, just teach him to keep it in his pants and tell him to stop." why do women have to present themselves differently just to avoid getting into a dangerous situation? why not fix the source (men)?
The whole purse on the table was much like victim blaming and I felt sick just hearing. She says "it's my fault" in a sarcastic way bc it's what ppl say to woman that got abused, "why was she's wearing?". The clothe doesn't lure people to abuse you, otherwise babies wouldn't get abused too. The "beards" really got off the top with the whole analogy and talking about how woman put themselves in danger by wearing skirts. You're most likely to be abused at home than by a stranger, those woman in pajamas were putting themselves at risk too? By existing? And the "brains" seems like actually not have one if she thinks woman are at fault for being abused bc of what they wear. The only one to blame is the abuser and the system thag raise them. How about think about "no one told them not grab"?
Thank you soo much for touching on this topic. That whole conversation was beautiful and needed. Especially when you touché don’t the Asian community. When I got into Kpop and Asian dramas, I realised that colourism is not just a black community problem, it’s everywhere. I loved this.
while you guys don't react to other melanie songs i keep coming to watch your already released reactions i never get tired it's pure perfection i love the fact that you understand everything
When Melanie said “just teach him to keep it in his pants and tell him to stop” she means guys aren’t always taught not to touch women when they don’t want to be if they had been taught sooner it could’ve been prevented
I can’t wait till you see the rest of the videos one of my favorites is “The Principal”. I’d like to warn anyone that listens or sees the videos of this album. Orange Juice 🍊 mentions EDs.
could you guys react to Joshua Bassetts trilogy he posted a bit ago? It's the most mature response in my opinion, and really insightful. The order to watch it is Crisis, secret, and set me free
I agree with everything the guy said at the end. (Sorry I don't know his name). Yes it's a two way street but, us girls have to set some boundaries with ourselves and others for our own protection. Not saying guys have nothing to do with this, ofcourse they 100% do, but that's just my opinion. There's alot of evil out there.
Yeah, cause this world will never be a perfect place where no bad ever happens and everyone is conscious of what they're doing. That's the sad reality that the human specie (along with most animal species) has two different sexes and one is weaker than the other.
I love your Melanie Martinez reactions ♥️ Could you react to Marina, please? You guys could start with the videos of the Electra Heart era, they tell a story. Electra is a character that represents the archetypes of woman in society. Btw, Melanie was inspired by Marina when she created her own character, Cry Baby.

Sorry. This was a little harsh. My point still stands though.
Yh but she also adddd to it was disapointkng
The lyrics it's my fault, it's my fault cause I put icing on top, cause the boys want a taste of the strawberry shortcake are sarcastic and the lyrics got sent home because my skirt is too short these lyrics are pointing out how in our society we put blame on young girls and women and what they are wearing for getting sexually harassed or how in schools when girls wear skirt and shorts that are not even revealing much get sent home because teachers and the principals claim that it will distract young boys and male teachers
Also that's what the imagery is as melanie as a cake and the boys are lacking self control and is devouring the cake
I'm sorry? The victim of any sort of assault is NEVER to blame and NEVER holds any of the responsibility for it. Check your man. Seems misogynistic.
