but i didnt think to risque. and as far as the performance, too angry and aggressive to be sexually appealing to men, i feel.

i really like what kit stated, and we all need to keep in mind. some do better than others. i would like to hear more, from kit's point of view, on the issue.

oh. and on du, it was the men starting threads complaining about her being too sexual during the superbowl performance and calling her out on her costume, which i found interesting.

i wasnt impressed with the performance, but for other reasons.

i do like here vocal and strong position putting feminist right out there. i really appreciate that. i do not know her music.

I think the expectation is that women performers ought to be "sexy" redruddyred Oct 2014 #6
