The song features lyrics such as 'I’ll give you something big enough to tear your ass in two', the American’s international number one has sparked widespread criticism of sexism and been accused of referring to non-consensual sex in lines like 'I hate these blurred lines, I know you want it' and 'must wanna get nasty'.
Thicke has dismissed accusations of rape connotations as ‘ridiculous’, insisting to GQ magazine that he has 'always respected women'.
A PHD Student from the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow pointed out - I think the whole thing can be summarised if one adapts the
EUSA quote a tad from: "The solution to sexual violence is for rapists to
stop raping, not for women to restrict their movement" to "The
solution to sexual violence is for rapists to stop raping, not for Edinburghers
to censor people's choice to listen to shit music."
