When I click my cable remote to on demand, they’re running this ducking ad campaign for his new country album and the lyrics make me want to shout and rave about gender equality in culture.

Which is what’s so fucking gross about it because um…that culture isn’t cool and it shouldn’t exist. Just because it does, isn’t a reason it ever should.
