In summary, the woman's boyfriend has decided to make her a cd of misogynistic songs. He has already obtained songs like "Under My Thumb" by the Rolling Stones and "Just Like A Woman" by Bob Dylan. Other songs he has included include "Evil Woman" by E.L.O., "Evil Ways" by Santana, "Abigale" by King Diamond, "Evil Women" by Black Sabbath, "Witchy Woman" by Eagles, "The B*tch is Back" by Elton John, "Devil with the Blue Dress" by Mitch Ryder, "Hangman's Jury" by Aerosmith, "Living Dead Girl" by Rob Zombie, and "Swamp Witch"

Even I am not old enough to remember hearing this Ginny Arnell song on radio when it was current: Dumb Head. Pro-feminist, it was not. Entertaining though--and with some unique background vocalizations.

LOL! Yeah, probably anything out of a Disney movie would count. :rofl:

TheSwerve, do we dare ask why you've gotten this particular idea for a compilation of songs for your boyfriend? It sounds suspicious, like you might be trying to hint at something, or perhaps outright beat him over the head with it. Or just for a joke? Though, jokes aren't as funny when you both are on the same board and he'll see this post and know what's coming.

Just a joke, but he does like the Rolling Stones. It was really a spontaneous idea. Songs like those really do bug me (tho they rarely seem to bug guys, they usually just shrug it off as overthetop and funny). My boyfriend did know about this beforehand. I don't want to imply that he is a woman hater, just maybe a little too neutral about this stuff for my taste. I'm hoping to turn him into a femininst:tongue2: (tho he could be brainwashed into a misogynist! ).
