Speaker 2: Girls by Pink from her fourth studio album I'm Not Dead.

5
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:16,560
Speaker 2: It was released in February two thousand and six. It

6
00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:22,200
Speaker 2: introduces a more provocative, feminist and explicit side of Pink Lyrically,

7
00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:26,400
Speaker 2: it condemns sexism, and it encourages women not to dumb

8
00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:30,600

00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:32,680
Speaker 2: of roles, both as an angel and a demon, and

10
00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:37,320

11
00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:41,000
Speaker 2: in the video are parodies of young female celebrities of

12
00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:43,640
Speaker 2: the time that didn't necessarily go down.

13
00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:46,400
Speaker 1: Well, did you ever hear from any of the girls

14
00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:49,680
Speaker 1: you parodied in the music video for Stupid Girl? I did.

15
00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:52,800
Speaker 1: Actually the test, Paris was upset with me.

16
00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:54,920
Speaker 3: She was She was, what did she say? And how

17
00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:55,840
Speaker 3: did you hear from her?

18
00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:59,640
Speaker 1: I was at a club. She said, I just want

Speaker 1: you to know that I get it, like, I'm not dumb.

20
00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:03,880
Speaker 1: I just play like I'm dumb. And I was like,

21
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:05,520
Speaker 1: that's kind of my point.

22
00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:12,240
Speaker 3: Right, I'm gonna go good to see fair enough too.

23
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:16,320
Speaker 3: It's so true and all guys hand in hand with

24
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:19,320
Speaker 3: the Yeah, it's been well documented the why she has

25
00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:22,520
Speaker 3: raised her daughter Willow, who she's performed with, and you know,

26
00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:25,160
Speaker 3: the strong messages and why played dumb when you don't

27
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:25,399
Speaker 3: have to.

28
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:27,000
Speaker 2: I don't dumb it down.

00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:30,200
Speaker 2: I think she had this discussion with Andrew Denton.

31
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:32,640
Speaker 1: There's one force fed image of what a woman is

32
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:34,560
Speaker 1: supposed to look like, how she's supposed to act, how

33
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:36,800
Speaker 1: many big words she's allowed to use in this paragraph,

34
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:40,839
Speaker 1: what shoes she should have in order to be sexy.

35
00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 1: You have to be stupid in order to be successful,

36
00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:46,759
Speaker 1: be less challenging, don't contribute anything to the world because

37
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:51,720
Speaker 1: it's not cute. Just all of these just perpetuating stereotypes

38
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:54,840
Speaker 1: that I just find so boring and so nauseating. Yeah,

39
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,600
Speaker 1: there's references, very clear references, and that clipper, you know,

40
00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:02,120
Speaker 1: to all our favorites paras Hilton and Nicole Richardson. Have

00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:04,400
Speaker 1: you met any of these girls, Yes, And I don't

42
00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:06,480
Speaker 1: think any of them are stupid. So you can't be

43
00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:09,280
Speaker 1: that successful and be that's and be stupid. I think

44
00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:11,200
Speaker 1: it's an act, and it's the act that I can't

45
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:11,680
Speaker 1: respect

46
00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:15,840
Speaker 3: Exactly self explanatory on your pink
