Lilly Singh Instagram – Oops, I forgot to feel ashamed. This isn’t just a fun song👇🏽
Yes, I hope you enjoyed listening. And yes, I partly made it to let you know my sex comedy Doin’ It is now streaming on Amazon, Apple and Fandango (starting today!). But truthfully, it’s deeper than that.
Since promoting this movie, I’ve been talking a lot about sex. It may seem like fun and games, but for me it’s been one of the most healing experiences of my life. For as long as I can remember, I felt shame around my body and any sexual desire. I grew up believing sex was something to tolerate, made only for men’s enjoyment. Through this movie, I’ve given myself permission to start unlearning that. It hasn’t been easy, because at every step there are people trying to drag me back into shame.
But here’s the truth: we should want women talking about sex with confidence and comfort— you know, the same way men do (that part!). One in three girls and women worldwide will experience physical or sexual violence from an intimate partner in their lifetime. And in our culture, sexual violence is too often swept under the rug.
Not empowering women to talk about consent, boundaries, desire, and sexual autonomy contributes to a culture where they’re not only deprived of a beautiful human experience, but also mistreated. If you think you’re being righteous by denying women education and confidence in this area, you’re wrong. The issue isn’t a sexual woman who wants pleasure… it’s how you value women. The empowerment of women isn’t what’s staining our culture, the way we shame and mistreat them is.
So yes, I know some people will be angry at my little rap. Yes, I swear. Yes, I say “pussy.” Sorry, I’m not making back-to-school videos anymore. I’m tired of not feeling safe in spaces that should feel natural and human. And I’m tired of “good girl” being synonymous with “sexually controlled girl.” So I made a bop for the girlie pops who carry the same trauma. If it’s not for you, scroll on. If it is for you, drop that ass mama 💃🏽
I’m no professional rapper, but I find this medium joyous and liberating. So thx for holding space for my lil hobby ❤️
