Does Robin Thicke song blurred lines sound like a rape song ? #talkbacktuesday


For almost a week, we have been hearing that Robin Thicke's "blurred lines" has rape type lyrics.
Around 20 University student unions have now banned Robin Thicke's Blurred Lines from being played in their bars because of concerns about the explicit lyrics.

Thicke has claimed the song is tongue–in–cheek and actually promotes feminism.
But it has attracted criticism for the explicit lyrics, leading to accusations that the song promotes non consensual sex and date rape.

Lyric such as:

Can't let it get past me
You're far from plastic
Talk about getting blasted
I hate these blurred lines
I know you want it
I know you want it
I know you want it
But you're a good girl
The way you grab me

I feel so lucky
Hey, hey, hey
You wanna hug me
Hey, hey, hey
What rhymes with hug me?
Hey, hey, hey

What you think, does this song have rape lyrics or just a sexual song ?
