He called the song “a sort of capitalist objectification and commodification of, in this case, the female.” He asked if feminism means to “achieve equality by aspiring to and replicating the values that have been established by males”.
Tucker Carlson criticized the song on his talk show Tucker Carlson Tonight saying that “it’s aimed at young American girls – maybe your girls, your granddaughters and what is it doing to them? Can you imagine what it’s doing to them? The people pushing it clearly are trying to hurt your children”.Ĭomedian Russell Brand posted a video on social media entitled “WAP: Feminist Masterpiece or P*rn?”, in which he discussed whether or not the song and the video were truly empowering to women. Bradley, a health industry executive who is running for a California congressional seat, wrote that “Cardi B & Megan Thee Stallion are what happens when children are raised without God and without a strong father figure” adding that the song made him want to “pour holy water” in his ears. On the other hand, some public figures frowned heavily on the song. Wow, that’s a lot of praise for a song called WAP. Not to be beaten in this golden shower of praise, the NY Times claimed that the song is “an event record that transcends the event itself”. Complex magazine called the song “the epitome of female empowerment” while the Los Angeles Times wrote that the song “carries a political weight that men rapping about sex doesn’t”. On one side, mass media gushed over the song (pun intended) with unlimited praise. And, because it is 2020, people found a way to make this song about moist female genitals political and divisive. Squirting also comes up in popular music, rapped by the likes of Lil Wayne in his 2013 “Curtains”: “On that Pat-ron, I’m swerving, game tight like virgins / I got a bad bitch, she Persian, call her AK when she’s squirting.Fast-forward in 2020: WAP is unleashed onto the world.
Outside of pornography, squirting has become a topic in women’s interest publications about the phenomenon and to educate the curious about female ejaculation more generally. Studies on squirting-and yes, sometimes they do use the slang-conclude that women who do experience ejaculation can involuntarily, and very normally, generate a small amount of liquid, usually comprising urine and a bit of glandular fluid. That coincides, of course, with the rise of internet porn.Īs a genre of pornography, squirting videos largely cater to the fetishes of men and show a woman spurting (or squirting, a verb which dates back to the 1400s) a large amount of clear fluid during orgasm. Some performers have come out and said this is usually fake. In the 1980s, an adult film star, Fallon, earned the nickname The Squirt due to her alleged ejaculatory orgasms, though squirting as a pornographic label doesn’t seem to take off until the 2000s online. Female ejaculation has been a topic of formal research since at least the 1970s, but the slang term squirting emerges from the rise of that other great product of the 1970s: the adult film industry.
