Yesterday I saw the Sinead O’Connor commentary on Miley Cyrus make the rounds online. Mostly by Feminists my age. Feminists that grew up with Madonna, mind you. My first thought was “really? Sinead, is commenting on “bad decisions”? Don’t get me wrong, that Wrecking Ball video is terrible. I was so excited to see some good quality, pop music, pushing the envelope shit and there is nothing there. That’s why none of this makes sense, a pop star is naked,…. ok, a pop star is doing drugs…ok, a pop star is having sex, ….ok. I really don’t care…a pop star is “appropriating” black culture…ok maybe I care a little, but that’s a whole other topic. While, I agree with much of what O’Connor says and love her to deaf. I wanted to write something about how instead of doing a Miley “pile on” Sinead shoulda listed all the amazing, talented women out there TRYING to get clicks without taking off their clothes. But then I thought Miley DID make an atrocious video referencing Sinead, so she deserves this commentary. And thus I gave up on writing a blog. Which I do quite often, haha.

But later, a post by a younger feminist questioning the letter by Sinead as “slut shaming” and prejudiced, in that (in my mind), it’s fine for all these other pop stars to be all sexy but not Miley, DEAR GOD NOT MILEY!!!!! ugh. I really don’t know how I feel about the term “slut shaming,” I general think we should be doing more shaming, but that’s another topic.

Do we bat an eye when a young black, female celebrity engages in such behavior? Has there been a young black female celebrity engaging in such behavior? Lawrence Fishborne’s daughter and her porn career, possibly, that girl from Family Matters and her weed addiction and foray into porn, possibly. I don’t even know her name.(I’m not going to Google it cause I’m lazy and racist.)

So here click on theeeese shits instead of the Miley pile on, or click on the Miley stuff AND click on these! Positivity!
