So Legit is pretty insulting too towards the transgender community :"You're looking like a man" ...

It's a very good translation, it's hard to check everything in detail but the meaning is quite intact.

It is the only provocative sentence which I was able to write and I find it particularly funny.* I'd rather say it's :"It is the only provocative sentence I might have written and I find it particularly funny."

I like a lot more than West Coast but it feels like she's putting less thoughts into the lyrics and more into the music alone now. I really get vintage vibes from it.

I'm glad there's a daddy. Back to tha basics

She really needs a stylist ...

Lucky is like the original Carmen song.

If you don't like how she treats this then you should react the same for how she treats Lolita-like relationships because it's much more fucked up imo then mentioning rough sex.

I don't understand that whole fuss ... it's not like she's trying to be a role-model or advocate abuse.

It's okay we all understood your opinion, there's no need to keep repeating that weed is this or that.

Carmen is a tzigan, femme fatale who had 2 guys fighting over her vagina and got killed by her lover in the end. This is very famous : Love is a gypsy's child, it has never, never known what law is, if you do not love me, i love you if i love you, then beware! if you do not love me, if you do not love me, i love you! but if i love you, if i love you, then beware! It depicts love, passion, seduction and madness with sexual undertones. Imo that's why there is a French part in Carmen (it is by Bizet and he is French). My favorite interpretation of Carmen though is the Russian ballet with Schedrin's remastered version.

She's looking for a new sugar daddy

This is low and not funny. Btw, I don't even support Russia and it's pretty easy to attack a country and feel all right doing it when you are on a forum with 0 Russian person. Btw, Romania isn't Russia and you clearly can't generalize. I daily face more racism in France than I ever could face in a lifetime in Russia. I am treated there as a human and not a sub-human like I am in France. I have no love for Russia and I distance myself as much as possible from Russians but it's tiring to see always the same bashing caused by ignorance and self-absorbency.

My statement didn't imply he was "democratically" elected. I still believe that he was the last time he became president though. The world isn't black or white but made of shades of grey and a politician democratically elected doesn't make him more competent (but more "legitime" and even this notion can be discussed). Btw your links have hardly any value, they are as neutral as the official numbers in Russia.

My home country is Kazakhstan, it has a mentality much closer to the Russian one than Romania, it shares common borders and we have around 30% (once upon a time much more) of ethnic Russians living on the territory for only 50% of ethnic Kazakhs. Kazakhstan is probably the "best and closest friend" of Russia (other friendly countries but not as closely cooperating probably include Bulgaria, somehow Belarus, ... but ofc having Baikonur on their territory it beats them all) . Russian is the number 1 language and I think people there speak it better than Russians themselves tbh. Also very close members of my family are Russians so I think I quite know what I'm talking about ... Did you experience yourself racism? Eastern Europe is such a huge area so it's definitely not homogeneous even though those countries share similar characteristics. Russia is probably more homogeneous than the USA but don't forget what a huge country it is, living in Vladivostok, Chechnya, Tatarstan or St-Pt isn't quite the same and they have different mentalities. Maybe you can think there is racism or homophobia but misogyny? That's for sure no! Racism in Russia is mostly directed to the immigrants coming from poor countries like Tajikistan (just like in the USA towards Mexicans, in France towards Arabs, and so on). I don't know Romanians but I know some people from Moldovia. Do you know Russian like they do? (I am just curious to know how influenced by Russia your country might still be today). I don't think that Putin is racist. He can be ruthless when speaking but that's it. There are serious rumors his "new wife" is a Tatar gymnast so => Muslim + Asian/Turkic. Also his relationships with Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan would be I guess much more different though I agree we can only guess. He never showed a "racist" face so I guess we can assume he isn't. (after all isn't it supposed to be the norm?) The question of the "traditional family values" is very delicate. Imo it is bullshit for masking homophobia but many people actually do believe in them and defend them with "serious" arguing. What do you do in that case? Ignore them and call them homophobic? Listen to them and ... look at what the majority is for?

I am a French citizen but I was not born here. And nope, I am not Russian, I was born in a country that was part of the soviet union though. Homosexuals are discriminated in Russia, just as much as they are in the USA. I totally have to disagree about women's rights in Russia!!! Women during USSR were totally equals to men. A woman in France till the 70's didn't have the right to own a bank account or work without her husband's authorization whereas my mother was taught just like my father how to use a kalashnikov. Nowadays things haven't changed for the worse, women have the same wages as men (unlike France), and so on. Putin isn't racist ... Where did you find about that? Russians become racists but I don't see the link with Putin ... I am a girl and I am not white but Asian. Part of my family lives in Moscow and Volgograd. All my family still lives in my home country so I definitely have seen the "other side". Can I know from which country exactly do you come from? It might explain a lot about your feelings towards Russia without offense. If you're from Latvia/Lithuania/Estonia it would really be no surprise. My country is actually accused of racism towards Russians and to me this is absolutely an aberration because I've lived there and I've seen how people live. I am not a blind supporter of Putin, I am aware of the atrocities he committed (Chechnya) but one thing you can't deny is that he is the most competent president Russia had and if every president in the planet had his dedication and concern for his country the world would be a better place. Ofc most of the time "traditional family values" is a politically correct way to discuss homophobia but I don't think that the line was crossed with his laws. He is no doubt homophobic but then how do you differentiate homophobia and "defense of traditional family values"? Do you consider that any person rooting for "traditional family values" is homophobic? Imo his laws stay in the "defense of traditional family values" and don't fall in the homophobia territory. His mind is probably filled with homophobia but I don't care about his personal beliefs to that extent. I supported gay marriage in France but I think that it is ridiculous to boycott Russia for these reasons. Boycott your own country, holy America then.
