Ms Grande likes to cop other peoples' ideas ('god is a woman', the whole semi-messy/sexy imagery, etc.)....admittedly, she is an extremely sexy young lady and has great vocal abilities...but her music is just pop crap (perhaps reflecting her own taste in music: pop crap).
I will only note that if god is a woman, then misogyny is not restricted to men.
I like her a lot as a person (her response to the Manchester atrocity and that benefit was incredible) and I LOVE her music. But then I've always preferred pop music over most other genres.
Yes, she seems to be a really fun and sweet young lady...and I felt very sorry for her and her fans after the Manchester bombing...Sorry to offend (if I did) any pop music fans....to be fair, pop music is a broad spectrum of music (and each genre has world wide popularity)....I''m mostly referring to certain types of pop -- typically lip-synced, programmed beats, pseudo/neo "R & B"...utterly forgettable music that is replaced monthly (or weekly) with some equally horrible (corporate produced) 'throw-away' music

No offence taken (would it techinically be possible for the person who gave the world the Tabitha video to offend at all? I feel like that exempts you from giving offence forever) - just thought I'd wave the flag for UMDers who like pop - the few times I've seen music pop up for discussion this place generally has a rock / indie / metal bias
dhillsarealive: Golly, that was an unexpected bit of fandom!
And yes, there is a def rock/punk bias here (cause we're all so cool!)
LABERYNTH:
I understand the word misandrony (hatred of men) and have actually used it a few times in debates...
However,, my use of the term 'misogyny' is intentional; given how unfairly and often horribly we treat women (in general, still), the idea that 'god is a woman' and yet, women still struggle and suffer under/because of imbalanced ("toxic") masculinity (all permitted by 'god'), can only mean that either
