Sex & Shenanigans

It’s not rapey, she’s pretending to not want to stay because of decorum, but she wants to stay.

It’s the patriarchy NOT rapey

You should! I know you seen this but it’s so truth.

Absolutely!!!! And I'll harmonize with Glinda's solos, where there is no harmony, and Sing Elphaba's part at the top of my Lungs!

oh, i in the "bill cosby" sense know exactly what is going on...its late, its cold, drink this, you dont want to go, itll be nice if you stay...stranger danger!

When I said people don’t understand what’s she’s singing

When that song was written, single women weren’t supposed to want to stay the night with a man, so she’s fake protesting, again, for decorum.

Like so many things, it comes down to tone and context

I agree with this. I think being uncomfortable with it and not liking it is a perfectly reasonable reaction and I won’t argue with you. Especially if you have had drugged drinks in your past.

But I’ll also love Zooey Deschenel singing it on my own time.

I will be singing every single line that I know
But I know I’m not great so I’ll keep my volume respectful and leave the belting for my car

I'm usually harmonizing with whatever I'm blasting on my speaker

Same! except replace harmonizing with butchering

It’s just better if we all agree with @MindYaBitness

im mostly teasing, i dont feel strongly one way or another...i just think its funny...and its also undeniable that the lyrics can certainly be interpreted nefariously

I can’t listen!!!!


Is this punishment for forgetting?

I love that song. I know that younger generations think that it's kind of rapey, but I just think it's flirty and cute.

He actually wrote it to sing with his wife for a party they held as a cute way to lets their guests know it was time to head home.

So I don’t get how it can be “rapey” if people take the time to research

Yes, and "what's in this drink" was an often used joke, unlike today
