'Things that Make You Go Hmm..."

Song: Things that Make You Go Hmm
Artist: C+C Music Factory
Album: Gonna Make You Sweat

What do guys want a real girl or a blow up doll?
Today in one of my numerous English classes we were discussing all the different terms for sex in popular cultre. When it came to white kids, it was "Hook Up", "Do it", all that corny shit. However, in the Black Vernacular (that's right I said it) words to describe sex are much more violent and masculine...think about it

Beat. Smash. Hit. Tap. Blow her Back Out. Bone. Bust it Wide Open. Screw. Bang. Pound. Beat it Up. Knock it Out....

I mean what does that reinforce? Male Dominance and abuse.. Honestly, the black woman continues to be the subject of hypersexualization in every aspect. Even in language a woman is subject to a man's will. Honestly a Woman can't physically Beat it, Smash it, Hit It, Tap It, Bust It Open, and other things and still come away with a non-traumatic experience. This is just another way things are getting out of hand.

I don't know about you but I'm not down for that..whatever happened to cute sayings like "Make Whoopee" lol or something inbetween.
