Everybody is searching for equality, everyone wants justice, but is that enough to say your served well? Misogyny; the hatred of women by men, I discovered this while studying in my English classes. While browsing through the Internet looking for new songs, I stumbled upon music that disrespects women. I got curious and opened the site because I have never heard such case. That kind of disrespecting is from songs that I liked, well everything has a down side but why this?

Coming across the site
TheRapUp the article
“11 Rap Songs to Disrespect Women to” written by Rizoh, I read the lyrics of the songs there and it was really disrespectful. Not to mention the songs are very verbal in a way that it wasn’t good anymore, some lyrics are just full of violent words, “fuck” is in it and again “bitch” that is called for a female dog and is use in the song to describe women. Rizoh said that he was shock having to hear those songs coming out of his speakers, as he squirmed on his seat he asked his self
““Does music dictate culture or is it the other way around?” Are we about to see a bunch of young boys running around calling women “queen”? Does rap music encourage misogyny or does it simply mirror a culture of misogyny?” it was clearly something that your mind will bubble unto.
There wasn’t a lot that Rizoh said but there was a lot of information in his few words, I also tried to look for more other than Rizoh’s article. After reading his article I also stumbled upon
“20 Most Misogynistic Songs Ever” in
brains.org, it was stated there that misogyny is “the worlds oldest practice” because it started out during the Greek mythology and Roman Philosophers. The misogyny acclaimed that men are misogynist because of being jealous to the women having a different evolution, biology, phallogocentrism and other naturalistic theories. One song there that caught my attention was “A Lapdance Is So Much Better When The Stripper Is Crying” By The Bloodhound Gang” even the title was that bad to hear, I didn’t even want to listen to the song. Another song is “Don’t Bite the Dick” By David Allan Coe” it is really something.
Now that the fact is known, should we stop it? If so, how can we? Where is the justice in that? People tries to go for equality but is there justice in what they are doing. Some men are angry when women say Feminism is just right, but those men have reasons why they are opposing to it. In the Philippines there are also songs that are like that, but because the people there want to be “in with the crowd” all the time, they now do those bad things just because little they know its not fine, as long as someone is hurt. But can you see the Feminism in some countries? How about in the article’s songs? Are they still here for equal rights and justice? We can decide this for ourselves but its up to us if we will look for a solution to it.
