Honky Tonk Badonkadonk

What scares me most about that Honky Tonk Badonkadonk song isn't just the fact that it's country music stealing words and sexism from rap culture. Oh no, dumb words and the degradation of women have been around since Shakespeare wrote sonnet #CLV, which ended with the lines:
Baby I like it when you shake that rump
Now, harlot, bend over so I can hump

No, the scary part of Honky Tonk Badonkadonk is the way it's all about butts. And that's that. Everyone loves butts; this is a universal fact. This song takes this truth and puts it on our lap with a southern accent, and I think that's too much for some people.

You ever notice how someone can talk about how tight a butt is in a song, but the second they talk about the tightness of a butt hole, people are suddenly 'better than that'?

(work.)

By adding the word "hole" to all those dirty rap songs about stank ass hoe booties, all that misogyny is somehow less appealing. This is a fact I need to share with the world.
