Are hip hop and rap offensive to women?

Question

I like it, but sometimes I feel like the lyrics of some artists are too much

Answer 2

I know that sometimes it is meant in fun and that it is not necessarily the opinion of the artist. However, I do think that the attitude of disrespect toward women is more widespread in people who listen to hip hop and rap. (I am not saying everyone is like this!!!!) I think as people listen to it, it just becomes easy to use some of the terms or to become more comfortable with the attitudes toward women.

Answer 3

It's offencive to me, so I ignore it. I try and pretend that the objectifying of women isn't happening, and that we haven't been set back after years of working for our rights and an equal place in the world.
