Chips are "Plant-based" no matter how you cook them
Donald Trump needs kicking out of a helicopter
I'm personally responsible for all global warming
The Carry On Collection.
Absolutely Disgusting!
Destined to be mine
Every night I wait to see
In the dark, watching
Stalking your every move
I know when you're all alone
All alone
Legs spread open
Bruised flesh, lacerations
Skin stained with blood
I'm the only one you love
I feel her heart beating
My knife deep inside
Her crotch is bleeding
Fucking her harder, harder"
Lovely little ditty.

It’s catchy.
I can't help about the shape I'm in, I can't sing I ain't pretty and my legs are thin
But don't ask me what I think of you, I might not give the answer that you want me to

In other news. If you were driving down a narrow road and everyone else was driving in the opposite direction and flashing their lights at you would you even consider the possibility that you were going the wrong way?

The 2 main verses both end with something confirming the girl is absolutely keen to stay:
"Maybe just a half a drink more..."
"Well maybe just a cigarette more..."
And I'm sure any of us could actually go line by line through the whole narrative, but I really can't be arsed.

Oh, c'mon. That's straight out of the siraxeman playbook - refer to everybody else's comments as "claims" but ignore the ones containing actual evidence of it that they're all based on!
I mean - the culture was different back then wasn't it, so that's alright.... isn't it ?
There's a definite double-standard on the forum when it comes to sexism. You get an A+ when it comes to rallying around to fight the good fight against the slightest attack based on race or sexuality, but a depressing proportion get a D- when it comes to even grasping how something could be seen as being sexist or predatory, let alone argue against it. Perhaps that's just down to the fact that the forum is 99.9% sausage ?

I don't think Emp is a racist though- he just said a racist thing.

I find it offensive.
Personally I don't particularly care about the writer's intentions, and any under-grad lit crit ponce will have been deafened by their "intentional fallacy" klaxon with any such discussions.
However that doesn't really matter because even under modern culture reference points you still have to go out of your way to interpret it is "a bit rapey" when you take the text as a whole. Unless someone deliberately creates a dark version of the song. All of the traditional ones are quite clearly not rapey in the least. So at most you might want to be sensitive about the contexts in which you played it.
Also, whilst the author's intentions don't matter particularly for interpretation, the historical context does. It's called hermeneutics, and is something that is vital to properly understanding anything, really.
Comparing it to overt racism is a false equivalence, because the whole "flirtation game" is still a thing today, and that's basically that "Baby it's cold outside" is. Whereas today we've (largely) moved on from thinking that people are inferior purely based on the colour of their skin. I still wouldn't want the racist texts of history banned, though; just rendered obsolete and irrelevant, and therefore of no interest other than as items for academic study.
