NSFW - content: celebrating genitals, Janelle Monae's divine new song.
What I really like about Janelle Monae's new song/video PYNK is it's - not smutty, or funny, or ashamed, it's just kinda happy and sweet and all
about vaginas. I don't think I've ever seen anything like it.
I've read some articles about how it's radical to talk about women's bodies like that, which it is. But I actually think it's pretty unique in songs about bodies or sex period. Or even songs about love.
PYNK is a song about joy and happiness.

(Monae is one of my heroes, so I'd be crushed to discover she went in for trans-exclusionary feminism; and heartened if she's openly expressed support.)
After Electric Lady came out I wrote, like, a 4000 word essay about her imagery and lyrics - not for publication, just because I had so. Many. Feelings.
