So yeah, it's rapey. arrrrgh this has been explained multiple times. http://persephonemagazine.com/2010/12/listening-while-feminist-in-defense-of-baby-its-cold-outside/ I read the article and if that is true then I would agree with you, it might have been innocent. IMO the song can be interpreted either way. I still don't like the song because rape is such a big problem and it feels weird to sing a happy song where a guy is being so goddamn insistent when the girl is saying no, even if playfully. --- Touch fuzzy get dizzy. <cite>Wetterdew posted [p:913758247] in Is Baby It...
