Truly, I think that misogynistic music should not be embraced by the masses of women. While the commentary may be true of the men that these performers are acquainted with, no self respecting woman should embrace the lyrics by dancing nor strolling to it.
Whenever songs like ___ Betta have my money, Gangsta B___, etc. would come on when I was a partying gal, I would not even entertain the thought of dancing. The beat may have been nice, but by dancing to it, I would signal that I embraced this form of verbal abuse.
I think that the question you've posed is a good one. I have noticed Greeks and non-Greeks alike dancing when these songs come on..and I've often wondered if they understood the condoning message they were sending. What ever happened to our social conscience?
