♪♫ I'm a mouthy boy in a PC world... saying F*CK is fantastic ♪♫
Nowadays seems like everything is censored. If you're a social media content creator, you have to check your Ps&Qs if you don't want to be shadow banned, or whatever they do - I'm not one of them so I don't know how that works, but I do know that is s*cks (I f*cking hate) to hear sh*t like "unalive", "s*x*al assault", "g*n", "c*caine", "d*g" ... so f*cking annoying, isn't? I'll answer for you: yes, yes, it is.
But I want to focus on something more relatable, because I am relatable as f*ck - censoring yourself in Real Life because there are kids in the room. Fan-f'ing-tastic!
This comes from that one time when Lizzo wore some kind of garment but her @ss hanging out in a thong at a basketball game, and parents were outraged because there were kids present. While I do see their point and I agree to an extent, I also reason with the fact that we cannot tell people what to do when in public. Sidenote, I just know that the people offended by such behavior are the same ones claiming their 1st Amendment right when it's convenient for them.
But in the wise words of Poetess Queen Nicki Minaj once spoke, "I'm not their parents."
In the grand scheme of things, if you don't want your children to be around (insert whatever you don't want your kids to be around), then don't bring them around it. Keep them in a bubble. Cover their eyes and ears. But don't expect others to cater to your expectations; that's just not going to happen. That's not how the world works. That's what we call Karens now, and no one wants to end up on a viral video losing your shit because you're not getting your way.
Instead...
In late 2000s, Josiah Leming (American Idol S7 contestant) posted a note on his MySpace addressing bad words around chidren - he expressed why should children be sheltered from cuss words when they're going to hear them regardless; instead, teach your children to be kind to one another. And this, I cosign, Retweet, Love, Pin, Share, Repost.
As a parent, I think I will do the following:
- Lizzo showing her ass? I'll tell my child she's having fun and not hurting anyone, so twerk away!
- People cussing? I'll tell my child some people speak like that, but we do not.
- Dr*g Queens reading books? I'll tell my child it's a job they do and enjoy and not hurting no one.
- Dr*nk people? I'll tell my child some people drink alcohol and act goofy, but you have to be of age and responsible to have that kind of fun.
- G*ng violence? I'll tell my child some people don't have the same chances in life.
- Pr*stitution? I'll tell my kid some people seek financial stability however they can.
- H*mos*xuals? I'll tell my kid they're the greatest people you'll ever meet.
- Road R*ge? I'll tell my kid some people need to chill when driving.
And if my child asks WHY, I'll them is BECAUSE I SAY SO.
