I'm not judging anyone, I was just trying to point out that there are some people who comment on the artist knowing nothing of their background, and not even wanting to hear anything that contradicts the opion they've already formed (which is what annoys me). And everyone uses sex as a marketing tool it's the world we live in. But considering what I see on a daily basis, with advertisments, much more overt performers, and the women on the street (or in the clubs), I just don't see what she does as sexual, sure it can be sexy, but to me it doesn't look like an invitation to sex. This is just my perspective living where I do, what Shakira does in the Suerte video looks innocent compared to the mating rituals I see on a nightly basis.
I wasn't commenting on the US, even though I have family there, I don't have enough experience of the land of the peanut butter m&m to make an accurate observation. When I speak, my frame of reference is this country (and Tel Aviv) that's about it.
Guess this goes to show just how much our surroundings influence how we think.
