If i were a boy

by beyonce is GREAT! It describes every jerk girls have been with. People call it sexist which is total dumb bullshit. but its a good song!

 

I love that song,but I realy like Beyonce...

 

surprised with how much i did like *if i where a boy*...dont usually like her stuff

Tho dont like the video much

 

it shows a complete misunderstanding of human nature, is what it does.

 

agreed, I wonder who wrote it for her

 

you dont naturally cheat or hurt the one you love...you dont love them then... its basically telling you that how guys ( that did this to women) would feel if women did the same to them not knowing how much they loved them. its a song with meaning and experiences not human nature

 

Oh, i love this song... i heard this one every morning...

 

I actually have to admit that although I'm really not into processed cheese music, I saw her perform this live on some reality TV show and she belted it out like a true star. She's a proper diva!

 

Oh, man... I thought you were gonna talk about if you were a boy stacy.

Beyonce is hot. Too bad she married Jermain Dupri.

 

does I hope you were just joking....LOL
Beyonce married JayZ,lucky bastard...

 

Yes, I was joking.... that wasn't even Beyonce.

 

Ok just checkin,I am not awake yet,I should of knew that you were playin...LOL

 

yeah she wishes she looked like beyonce hahaha

 

of course u don't willingly hurt the one u love. the thing here though is that a lot of times one party in a relationship assumes the other one to love them when that is not the case. and that's how they get hurt. and it isn't anybody's fault. it's completely ridiculous to pin it on guys every time a relationship goes wrong. beyonce is presenting us with a very narrow and superficial POV. relationships are far too complex to say that it's the fault of one party (men in this case) alone. the lyrics are a bunch of wishful thinking and daydreams.

 

That song is the most annoying pile of sexist tripe I ever heard.

As though the woman that wrote it is so goddamned sensitive and perfect (by pure merit of her sex) that she could never behave cruelly or hurt someone.

Her unashamed idiocy and fumbling emotional incompetence might be forgivable if the song had some level of musical merit above that of cold bile, which it does not.

 

I've only heard the song like 3 times and it always confuses me! Especially when I saw the video. Break it down for me someone please!

 

Essentially Beyonce, posits the hypothesis (through the medium of song) that if she were of the male gender it would be possible to behave cruelly without ever suffering any form of reproach (such as, for example, inane songs being written about you) and speculates that being aforementioned gender must make life a great deal easier.
She further asserts that the subject of her musical theorem will never be able to attain such heights of emotional excellence as she herself has attained, on account of being "just a boy" leaving us with the possible conclusion that mass gender reassignment therapy could largely improve the lot of the poor long-suffering females of the species.

 

but you know you gotta really think before thinking it has "pining it on all men" Shes pining it on the BAD men, the men that shouldnt be called men, they're little boys if they dont know how to love a girl. 90% of the time you hear guys do this shit so dont go protecting all the guys here cause a lot a lot of guys are boys. Im not saying ALL but nowadays its really difficult to find a guy that wont come home extremely late or turn off his cell phone, or one who cant give you a shoulder to lean on.

Thats basically what shes singing about. Again, its any other love/hate song. This song just took it a step up and made a lot of girls happier and know now

This song is extremely popular because its good and it makes sense. Go ahead and think it has the "wrong ideal"

A lot of girls like this song because they've been through it, I've been through it and I love how this song does a turnaround

I found it a bit confusing the first time I listened but got it when I reread the lyrics, dont say shes never been through it, you dont know that.

 

what is it exactly she's been through? the song is a gibberish of general nothing convening a message that guys are the worse side of relationships and women have all been mistreated and made miserable. how is it always (90% u say) a guy's fault? women say they are equal with men but whenever sth goes wrong they blame it on the male. start taking some goddamn responsibility! look in the mirror. if it didn't work out then there was sth amiss on your side as well. if a girl was perfect (there's no such thing; this is a generalization) there'd be little problems in the relationship due to men.

so your reasoning on the subject is that a guy coming home late (regularly or not) makes him the bad guy? are u serious? u are talking about tiny little details that have got nothing to do with the relationship. and it's a misunderstanding of human nature in that thinking that trying to restrict another person's freedom will keep him with you for long, that it will make him respect or love u. this is precisely what will push him away.

"turn off his cell phone", "shoulder to lean on" ---- what exactly is that supposed to mean? if u put such ambiguous terms on a relationship it is no surprise it'll never work out.
