Analyze This: If It's Up, Then It's Up by Cardi B

Truth is, If you are singing lyrics like, "broke boys don't deserve no pu--y," you are effectively promoting prostitution.

Three things I want to ask anyone who agrees with the notion that broke boys don't deserve no pu--y is:

1) What do you consider broke?
2) Let's say a man is rich; How much money does he have to spend before you go to bed with him?
3) If a man spends the required amount of money, then you go ahead and sleep with him - did you just prostitute yourself?

This is something to think about. Also, this makes me wonder if this is where the term, "The dating market" comes from because it seems like the concept of dating includes an exchange of goods and services, not a chance to meet with someone who may share a real connection through common interests, real attraction and the sharing of good energy.

Historically, the power dynamic between women and men perpetuates inequality that is the result of men making more money than women on a global level, so songs like this further encourage gender inequality.

I don't know about you, but I'll never encourage my children, or anyone else's children to buy into this narrative.
