hot child

The Nick Gilder masterpiece “Hot Child in the City” was on the radio just before I sat down to write this, and it got me to thinking: How is pop music any different from porn? It’s got unrealistic depictions of sex, unreasonable expectations, and it’s mostly centered on men’s desires. If it’s a pop music video, it’s even got pictures that are sometimes not too far from actual soft-core porn. Pop music is just pornographic poetry. Prove me wrong.
