Am I the only one who finds Sean Paul’s “Temperature” offensive? It’s not the bouncing boobs, it’s not the freak dancing, it’s not even the dancing kiddies (much) – it’s the stepping on women. Literally. I don’t consider myself extremely feminist, but this video is the most sexist thing I’ve seen on TV. There are a couple of spots during the video in which a trio of men literally step on a trio of women, physically pushing them down. (I’m not sure the link above is the full video, but it has at least one clip of this.) It’s horrible, and yet I couldn’t find much online about this. Now Verizon is using the song in one of their commercials; they’re not using the video but every time I hear the song it makes me mad.

I agree it is horrible, but its not going to be the first or the last music video to degrade women.
