Shania changed the direction of country music, especially from the female artist perspective. Go watch a video of Carrie Underwood live performance, it is from the Shania Twain play book! A country music female star showing her belly button? Unheard of before Shania. She is incredible!
Should be noted that Robert Palmers video was also mocking this style of video that was prevalent around this time, with the girls deliberately dancing 'out of time' and not even pretending to mime playing the instruments. Originally recorded as a duet with Chaka Kahn, but politics intervened with her management team telling Palmer to pull her vocals as it was a 'conflict of interest' for Kahn.
One thing to realize about the 90's, and this song. We all lived to have fun, and we definitely didn't take life as seriously as they do these days. This was pre-Y2K, pre-9/11, and absolutely pre- stick up the ass wokeness! Yeah, Shania may have a new message to say these days (seems like a lot do, unfortunately)....but don't read too much into this. It was all about a woman being proud of her feminity, and having the perogative to have a little fun! Society can learn something about that now!
C'mon Gang... she's hot, sexy n' sassy... that makes the whole point of the video. Ya wanna be the guy who shows up at the same party spot as her. Rosie O'Donnell can't do this video.
04:43 The guys in the band are emasculated for no reason except embarrassing men is in fashion and has been for decades. For the record, Robert Palmer hated doing that stuff in adicted to love, he is on record saying he thought it was dumb. But all you care about is crapping on men.
When the question is asked “what is a woman?” I point to this video and Shania Twain in general.

Thank you Boo for the suggestion! We will check that our for sure.
Listening to this in my teenage years here in Nigeria. I always sang along even though I’m not a woman. Just cool vibes and iconic music.
Wonderful, Shania!! You go, girl!!!
The whole video with the pretty boy band in the background was a spoof on Robert Palmer’s “Addicted To Love” video from the 80’s
EJ let us know that in the video. Very cool spoof!
Seen this 10 times still love it.
1997: I feel Like a woman
2020+: What is a woman?
