"Russell Brand has been criticised online after sharing a video in which he critiques Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion‘s new video ‘WAP’.
The actor shared a video to social media yesterday (August 14) entitled “WAP: Feminist Masterpiece or Porn?” In the lengthy clip, he discusses the “cultural phenomena” surrounding the ‘WAP’ video and “its use of sexual imagery and female potency.”
He asked whether women “achieve equality by aspiring to and replicating the values that have been established by males.” "
I guess feminists aren’t about to start taking lessons from the hairy hero. I think mansplaining implies a condescending manner though, and not understanding what is being ‘splained’. I’m not sure his critics have established that. Does it boil down to whether it is indeed male values that are being replicated in the video? On that point, it would be good to see the i’s dotted and the t’s crossed by some feminists. .
