Ok ladies, I have a real question here. What do you think of Destiny Child's song Cater 2 U that is currently in the video rotation? If you haven't heard it, here are a few choice lyrics or you can view the video by clicking here...
Take Off Your Shoes
Untie Your Shoestrings
Take Off Your Cufflinks (Yeah)
What You Want To Eat Boo? (Yeah)
Let Me Feed You
Let Me Run Your Bathwater
Whatever You Desire, I'll Supply Ya
I Got Your Slippers, Your Dinner, Your Dessert, And So Much More
Anything You Want Just Let Me Cater To You
Boy Is There Something You Need Me To Do (Oh)
If You Want It (I Got It)
Say The Word (I Will Try It)
I Know Whatever I'm Not Fulfilling (Oh)
Another Woman Is Willing (Oh)
I'll Keep It Tight, I'll Keep My Figure Right
I'll Keep My Hair Fixed, Keep Rocking The Hottest Outfits
When You Come Home Late Tap Me On My Shoulder, I'll Roll Over
Baby I Heard You, I'm Here To Serve You (I'm Lovin It, I'm Lovin It)
Fulfill Your Every Desire (Desire)
Your Wish Is My Command (Command)
I Want To Cater To My Man
Seriously, I am the target audience here, I'm supposed to be all "oh yeah, I want a women that will cater 2 me!" But I think that the message that this is sending to both young women and men is awful. I mean come on, "Say the word (I will try it)" and "I know whatever I'm not fulfilling - another women is willing" aren't exactly empowering statements.
I personally think that Destiny's Child should be embarrassed by what they are saying and the message that they are sending. I thought that they had a little more respect for themselves than this.
But I'm curious what all the ladies think. What do you think about this song? What do you think about the sad state of women in popular music right now? Do you think I'm totally wrong? I'd love to hear from you.
