I mean the thread was really just about "this is an exceptionally bad taste song".
Then greg runs in with "I wouldn't ban it but I want to ban it" and goes on another thread to accuse me of being a wife beater.Comment

Originally posted by Old Greg View PostAs a starting point, I don't think it should be banned (legally censored) any more than I think "Love Your Neighbour" should be banned (legally censored) - I'm not equating the two, just giving two examples. Having said that, I do think that there are extreme cases where music and other formats enter the "Inciting hatred" or "Inciting violence" categories, and in these cases there should be a legal mechanism for prosecution which could result in a conviction and censorship. The bar should be fairly high as freedom of expression is important.
Next, record labels should be pressured to remove songs like this from their catalogues.
Most difficult is persuading people not to listen to or watch misogynistic and similar content - I expect there's all sorts of nasty misogynistic pornography out there as well. It's a long slog to change opinions as to what is acceptable.

no its not.
As you may know I am in favour of legalised prostitution that is the prostitutes choice. Same for the grid girls, they do have the problem that other people do not agree they should have their job. That at least is similar. Though personally calling the grid girls immoral is a bit of a stretch.
Calling them whores or bitches however or suggesting they are slapped up is obviously not acceptable.Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.Comment
