    • @Synthetic_Strigiforme
      @Synthetic_Strigiforme ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Blithely giving in to jealosy and rage by murdering people in cold blood isn't praiseworthy when a man does it, and therefore it isn't praiseworthy when a woman does it, either.
      Also, the earliest known version of this song is from 1792, well before any form of western feminism existed. To call the song a feminist one is quite the stretch, to say the least. Then again, the lyrics are about an unstable, irrational woman who allows herself to be consumed and controlled by her hatred for a man, so you might be onto something.

      @@AA-db9cb Yeah, thanks Captain, I got that. Considering you're the one who initially approached this piece of entertainment, not only in a serious way, but with the express purpose of slapping an overtly political label on it, I think it's a lot more necessary for you to read that last comment of yours than it is for me to. So which is it? Is it feminist, or is it completely innocuous, and I'm just taking it way too seriously? Because it can't be both. I'm operating on the precedent that YOU set. Seriously, how lacking in self-awareness can you possibly be? Try taking your own advice.
      You're honestly telling me that if the genders were reversed, you'd still be praising the lyrics, thinking it set a fine example for how men ought to act? I highly doubt it.
      You should ask yourself, why are men denigrated and labeled toxic for their violent behavior, yet when women act the exact same way, it magically becomes admirable and empowering? Get your morality consistent.

      gay in older English means happy, so "to be married to a lady gay" is implying that they were happily engaged. Also slight tangent, but the bit with the sailors was a real thing. Press gangs used to roam ports and towns looking for young men for the RN. A trick they used to use is dropping a coin in your tankard. If you drank, you hade dinned on the kings coin and would be pressed into service by a gang of sailors. That is why some tankards have a glass bottoms so you can see through your drink if there's a coin in it.

      @@EliteKilljoy @Vincent Atuh; Definitely not a prostitute. "Gay" in older English meant joyful or happy or pleasant. Saying "my lady gay" back in the 18th century would have meant a fair or smiling woman, someone who would make you happy in a wholesome way.
      It is only in the late 20th century that gay = happy faded out of everyday use and became almost exclusively known as a synonym for homosexual / a member of LGBT+ community.
