I’ve noticed that female artists like SZA and Chxrry are not allowed to be cathartic in their music. People take everything they say so literal and it honestly undermines the artists’ intelligence. Similar to how men fail to read sarcasm from a woman..

it’s not “socially conservative” to be uncomfortable with millions of people seeing you naked what are we even talking about?

Negro Libre@NegroLibre1Nov 3

It's kind of weird as a Millenial to see how social conservative this younger generation is about sex and alcohol, but is also kind of ultra-progressive on other things.

newjeans were 14-17 when they signed those contracts, 16-19 when the dispute started and only 18-22 currently… they are still so young and all they wanted was their freedom i will never understand how people can feel nothing but hatred for them. just inhumane and evil spirited.
