While I will admit it is “hot”, I don’t want to see it. I know it’s wrong and so do the people doing it~ that’s part of the thrill of doing it.

You asked a very pertinent question:
“Once the trend becomes commonplace, will the cool kids find something more rebellious to do?”, then dismissed it saying there’s no way to tell. I think we all know what will happen~ in fact, you answered your own question in the same sentence.

Just what “boundary” is too far?

Heck~ is there a “boundary” anymore?

I have to agree, I love this song as well. As a bisexual, however, I have to listen to the words and see if it really is a good message or not. I believe that girls kissing girls is becoming a trend, indeed, but I think in doing so it is making the idea of bisexuality that much less valid. The song perpetuates the idea that bisexuality is only a result of alcohol, an experiment, or like you said, a mere ploy to entice males. I think it is great that the topic is getting media attention, but like the great (not) Tila Tequila, it isn’t the best for those who actually identify as bisexual.

The fact that people say they are interested in girls but have to adamantly state that they know they are straight just goes to show the negative connotations that still surround bi-curiosity/bisexuals, etc.

But the song is just so damn catchy…..lol

Great work reviewing such an exciting topic so analytically. Remember, though, a picture is worth a thousand words. Go for War and Peace duration next time you blog on this topic… please!

I’m bisexual so I don’t consider it a trend

You hit the nail on the head. Interesting to see this addressed & so well.

…but I plead the 5th.
