See, that's where I disagree. Doing things delicately doesn't upset people. It allows them to stay passive. She has a listener base - an audience. It's a perfect platform to do such statements because of how far it reaches. Or are you saying that artists (even pop musicians) should just passively do songs about whatever just to avoid upsetting people?

See tacocat's response to me.

Im saying that, if she were to try to make a statement, she should put some thought into it. But she isnt doing that. She's just throwing this romanticized and totally out-of-touch image out there. Hence my first reply where I said she just shouldn't have done it.
