I just think Sabrina Carpenter is making a comment about herself and her relationship with men, and I don’t know why it needs to be about all women. I think the internet and the constant need to criticize has frankly beat the desire of many artists to have an opinion which will obviously bleed into what they make. People complain but like Sabrina said, they made this popular

its peachy <3 :
I feel Sabrina’s music is very hyper pop femininity and sexuality- which is great in itself but I don’t know if she has the radicalism to make the point she wants to. When I think of radical pop girls my first thought is Olivia Rodrigo speaking out on women’s reproductive rights and donations to womens shelters on tour-

I feel like there’s a way be sexually forward as a woman while still being female centered. re: Megan Thee Stallion.

Andrew Morris :
I saw that Sabrina has mentioned the photographer Helmut Newton as an inspiration, which give a bit more depth to the imagery, but paired with her music doesn’t really provide the same artistic statement

Saw someone say “her music lacks the radicalism necessary to subvert the imagery she employs”

So, it's all marketing. And it worked. People are talking about it. The marketing worked.

thank you. the way people just respond with “it’s satire” like that it absolves it of any criticism has been driving me nuts. you can still analyse and criticise your faves!

I think Sabrina has a formula and an aesthetic and a brand that sells and this is entirely in line with the persona she’s curated. She is neither a trad wife nor a feminist icon, but a capitalist who has managed to successfully appeal to both. I think that’s a big part of the reason there’s been pearl clutching from both ends of the political spectrum: both sides are simultaneously trying to defend and denounce her in a way that aligns with their own values but there isn’t a whole lot to work with because it was never meant to be truly politically subversive to either side in the first place.

You cannot separate the art from the context it's being produced in!

The amount of people claiming that any display of sexuality is now empowering and anti-conservative no matter the context or intent of it

Remember when Doja cat got criticized for shaving her head and at Coachella she had hair down to her leg, leotard, dancers, and stage? Like “you want hair? Here’s your fucking hair” that’s subverting the male gaze. Give men what they want but not the way they want it.

i don’t think she’s trying to make a feminist statement, her music is blatantly saying she has a horrible relationship with men, craves male validation, and chooses bad situations (for example, lie to girls). i love her and her music but i think to attach any of her brand to empowerment and feminism is a reach, she knows her love life is a mess and that’s all she’s saying

JD Vance’s eyeliner :
‘empowered subjugation’-where a woman appears to reclaim objectification by choosing it, but instead only reinforces the structures she claims to resist. It appeals to the male gaze under the guise of critiquing it, and that ambiguity is precisely what makes it so insidious. The power she projects is surface-level-it flatters patriarchal fantasy more than it disrupts it

I don’t think it’s belittling to tell people they just don’t get it. It’s the fact that people are saying Sabrina’s cover is setting feminism back 50 years and that it’s normalising and glamourising DV. it’s okay to not like it personally, but to say it’s disgusting and abusive isn’t fair.
