I know choking is part of sex and that doesn't bother me. Let people do what they want as long as they're both consenting. There's still a difference between choking and suffocation. It's important to know the difference, especially in a legal sense. I view that phrase as he has his hands around her throat, which is suffocation. But others might view it as something else and their view is valid.
Maybe it's the social worker in me but that's why the phrase bothers me.

Avril's lyrics that makes me maybe uncomfortable sometimes are: Hello Kitty "OMFG" Rock N Roll "Just put up a middle finger to the sky" I Fell in Love With the Devil "I Fell in Love With the Devil" Bad Girl "You can fuck me"
That line in smile about blackout, is funny to me, looks like hangover movie

The lyrics in Bad Girl don’t bother me. The thought of Chad writing them does. No thanks. Look at this lyric! Every time I do it makes me laugh!

I think not being an English native speaker makes this less complicated. I just "turn off" the translation and the meaning of some songs in my head.
But honestly the swearing does not bother me at all or the sexual content. I think in this matter Europeans and Americans differ a lot. There's a pudency/modesty that does not exist in the EU. Never seen a bleep or a silence on TV on my life because there was a bad word coming up. Honestly only on MTV 😅

Oh this thread flew over my head. So so many.
One that havent been said:
"One thing's true, there is always a brand new day. Im gonna live today like it's my last day".
Not only repeats "day" too many times, and put two very cliche sentences together, but it doesn't make sense? Why living like is your last day if for sure there is always a brand new day? Wouldn't it make more sense to say you are not sure if there is going to be a brand new day? So many questions...

"We are stronger, that's why we're alive" Arrogant remarks like that really irk me. It's like they've never heard of "luck" or being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

"We are stronger, that's why we're alive" Yeah this was one was a bit in (unintentional) bad taste when she re-recorded it to dedicate to frontline workers in the middle of a deadly pandemic...

I mean...to be fair, she was right 😂 if by "stronger" she meant a stronger immune system (obviously). insensitive but it was true 😂

But others might view it as something else and their view is valid. Maybe it's the social worker in me but that's why the phrase bothers me. Having your hands around someone's throat is called choking. You're chokng them, not suffocating them. Suffocation is the thing that happens because of you choking them. But if it's "because [she] said so" it's clearly consensual. In a sexual sense it's usually not anything close to actually suffocating someone (or shouldn't be) it's just applying pressure to give a sense of control, not anything close to causing actual harm.
I know. Some of the thigns that get censored or are considered bad language in the US are crazy to me

I'll probably start a huge flame war for saying this, but the reason why you get such stupid censoring in the US is because of the "traditionals" and the "soccer-moms" that feel like they need to go off on anyone and anything that doesn't fit their outdated ideas. That's why portrayals or discussions of anything remotely related to "sex," even if important for health, are frowned upon here. Hell, a lot of people here would probably still make a big deal out of Avril saying "damn" once. We still have boomers that think video games cause violence and that electronics will rot your brain.
