    The drumbeat against 'Baby, It’s Cold Outside' is getting too loud to ignore.https://usat.ly/2BleuoI

        What about every rap song ever? Weird.

        Good point! As a DJ, it still amazing me how vile the lyrics of so many rap songs can be.

        What drum beat? This is the first I've heard about it. Also, picking on songs is the way of lazy SJWs. Go out and actually volunteer at a women's shelter if you want to help people, instead of sitting on your duff and whining about a song.

        Whether you like the song or not this sounds a lot like censorship. Do we ban everything we disagree with? Do we not have the freedom to turn it off? We are increasingly becoming a society with no ability to disagree civilly.

        Are we getting rid of just about every rap song also?

        It’s certainly important that we evaluate what passes for social norms. However, I’m guessing most people like this song for its melodic banter and asking everyone to re-listen for what we missed will be fodder for those who question the objectives of the larger movement.

        Anyone who’s done even the slightest research would learn that the lyrics imply something else and that it’s actually a song of a very healthy and conscientious relationship based upon the language and idiomatic expressions of the time period.
