My Random Thought: Crossdressing in parodies


Have you guys heard this song before? This is a parody song of Pretty Girls made by one of my favorite Youtuber groups, The Creatures


Anyways, I wouldn't be talking about it unless there was something I wanted to talk about and of course it's in the comments.

Some people think that this parody is offensive to women and transgenders, and I don't understand why. I, as a girl, don't find this offensive in any form, and if girls feel like they don't want to shave, just let them be and this parody is poking fun at the original song, not at girls who don't shave. In fact, this one is better than the original in terms of music and comedy.

 As for transgenders, them crossdressing isn't meant to offend transgenders. they did it because for starters, the song pretty much requires them to do so. Secondly, the song is funnier because of it. 

Running Man did the exact same thing, parodying 'One Night Only', a song sung by women while crossdressing as women. It still stands as one of the funniest moments in Running Man history


So before you jump onto your soapboxes and rant about why something offends a certain group of people, you should think this, "Did they really do it to offend people? Is it obvious? Do others see the same?", if the conclusion is no, then maybe there really isn't anything to feel offended about so just enjoy the show. Anyways, Feel free to voice your opinions and thoughts.

(P.S. Thanks to Dexter Manning and The Creatures for creating one of the funniest parodies ever! c:)

See you next time.
