That's actually a song. I have it on my playlist. 'Terror' by My Ruin.

It also says in one part of the song 'Both feminine and masculine' so the text in the icon is slightly misleading as to the content of the song.

Though I can see why you rolled your eyes.

Yep. Here you can read the full lyrics. I love My Ruin's music; Tairrie B is an amazing singer. I take it she also writes the lyrics?

Hehe, I went there too to see if I was thinking of the right song. That's the only song of theirs that I've actually heard, a friend of mine sent it to me because he thought it'd appeal to me ;)

You MUST download 'Monster', if not buy an album. :D

IIRC, this references a song by Pigface. We could get into a long discussion about sexism in modern music, but.... *shrug*

Yeah. My Ruin is a really good band, and their music is actually pro-feminist, in my eyes. Out of context it looks bad, but it's actually...not.

I see telling women they are "supposed" to look any specific way as a negative body image statement. Some women have very little in the way of breasts, hips and lips and are perfectly healthy; others are very well-endowed in these categories and are also healthy. Telling a woman she looks like a little boy seems pretty negative and hurtful to me.

Lips Hips and Tits? That can describe me when I was at my heaviest weight...well that and "chins."
