    to be honest I can hardly blame Lana for never wanting to straight up adopt the 'feminist' label  (despite clearly caring deeply for women & being aware of n regularly pondering on the patriarchy) after one of her first experiences with a self-proclaimed feminist was them throwing a book at her unprovoked lolol... that's one way to shoot yourself along w your cause right in the foot.

     

    radical types like that will always drive others away & make it hard for people to want to associate with the "movement"/group or whatever you wanna call it

    3 weeks ago some guys in class claimed they were not feminists because it's an unhinged movement of women showing their boobs at protests. I don't think it's really hard to differentiate things, it's not because some people do certain things that you have to associate a whole movement with those actions.

    I know it's kinda off-topic and maybe moderators will move our comments elsewhere, but the topic has been resurfacing these past few days on twitter (and that's directly related to some of A&W's lyrics), but I read and agreed with a comment under a Youtube video criticizing Lana for qftc. Putting aside the name dropping that caught way too much attention, it sums up pretty well the main issue or questioning I had with her post. The comment said:

     

    "also as someone whos been studying feminist movements for years i hate how shes acting like no feminist has ever advocated for more traditionally feminine women to be treated with respect and dignity when feminists HAVE advocated for these women. she doesnt understand that feminism isnt about rejecting traditional femininity, but about rejecting the idea that femininity is inferior to masculinity and giving agency for women (and everyone) to choose how they want to perform their gender identity without being ostracized. she doesnt understand feminism at all which is even more infuriating"

    omg same i’ve just started watching his lana reactions and i’m really enjoying it so far. i kind of want to tell him to react to sirens and ldr aka lizzy grant before starting born to die but idk if he’ll do it or if he’ll even notice me :facepalm:

    he'll notice you. He reads every single comment under his vids, not a lot of people watch them so he has enough time to do that

    i think jon interlude is gonna be a cute bop! :kiss3:

    I don't see any bop coming with the record. BOZ said we would have to be open minded listening to it for the first time, & the songs are very wordy and >5min so... But Idc about a bop with lana I'm happiest when she releases songs I don't get tired listening to after 3 months, when you discover new aspects of a song because you never paid attention to them before you know it's great


  5. Don't know where to post this, I've been looking for an album reaction thread but could not find one. I've watched For Whatever Reason's reactions to every single track from Norman Fucking Rockwell! on YouTube and God how cool that was. I suggest you all to watch them he's really dedicated. I've watched a ton of reactions from different people over the years and his are probably the best I've stumbled upon in a long time. He's not over the top and doesn't clickbait, and he always watches performances or the music video of the track he's reacting to. He also put out a video in which he reacts to the interviews she did before/after the album roll-out. 

    Here's the link redirecting you to his channel if you're interested: https://www.youtube.com/@ForWhateverReasonFWR 

    He's next going to react to Chemtrails, Blue Banisters and Ocean Blvd once it comes out, then go back to the beginning with Born to Die onwards.

    PS: NFR is now one of his favorite albums of all time.

    We've gotten so much and we're getting a new album soon and it's not enough?

    I would need her to do livestreams on a regular basis like 1 every 2 weeks, in which  she would talk with fans and talk about the process of LDR9 + announce a tour or some shit, release a music video for the title track, do interviews with magazines and radio shows, announce the release of her next poetry collection, reveal a dope merch for the album, and maybe I would finally be satisfied- but I'm not quite sure :oic2:
