I went to a Le Tigre concert in Boston Ma. I had never heard them before. It was some of the greatest 45 min of my life. Any group that can play that many songs that quickly while jumping the whole time is alright in my book.
Directed by Elisabeth Subrin who also did a great re-creation of a documentary about Sulamith Firestone (American feminist artist-writer-activist, and best known for writing The Dialectic of Sex)
the first time i saw this video was at a le tigre concert in '05. it made me LOL. why has no one commented on how well made this video is? almost nothing in this video is sexually explicit --it's just the viewer's dirty minds. HA! that's awesome.
I had fun reading the debate on this video while listening to this song in loop. Hey, after all I'm a 22 years old heterosexual man who is also a fan of Le tigre music.I guess that makes me a pussy if I follow Soulinit's thinking... I'm a feminist and I'm proud to say it. Equal rights are not just about laws, it's about how people perceive each others. It is a fact that women are often treated unequally. You don't have to be a woman to see that, if you don't, you're just denying.
this is the perfect place for comments about le tigre. What's wrong with disagreeing? Do you think le tigre fans are so week minded that they can't handle reading new Idea's? I have more faith in them then that. In what way am I being sexist?
Sexuality in everyday objects...reminds me of salvador dali's work...actually to be more precise dali reminded me of this video, I saw his moma exhibit right after this video.
"Our differences even out." She's right. Yes, we may live in a specialist society, but that doesn't mean men are superior. The male "superiority" comes from a skewed power structure which is favoured toward men, still. There are also biased stereotypical sex-roles which tell boys to be tough, aggressive and inquisitive and girls to be dainty, cute and play stupid. Also, I find many female comedians to be very funny, Sarah Silverman, Amy Poeller, Tina Fey, ect.
You are correct, technically canada is a "constitutional monarchy". But I meant to contrast canada and the UK with america(which is a republic, with the rights of the minority ensrined in the constitution and not up for debate). Canada has "the charter of rights and freedoms" but it a much more luke warm document then the bill of rights or constitution.
soulinite: Feminism is not only the belief that women should be equal to men under the law, but also the belief that women should be equal to men in society, pay, and politics.
As a canadian I live in a true democracy. You are correct however in that america is a republic not a true democracy with the rights of the individual enshrined in the constitution.
"Le Tigre doesn't kill anyone or ruin anyone's self esteem". Unlike those evil fashion magazines that you choose to buy every week... but only because the patrichary makes you.
Uh huh. Got to, wanna, got to, wanna. Raise your hand. Raise your voice. Raise your head up from the desk. Look who's here. Well well well. Guess it's time. For show and tell. Well what do you like and what do you need? How should I act and who should I be? Cuz I got it. I'm gonna give it to you. And you know it. What where when how when who? I'm gonna give you the answer tonight. Gonna give you the answer anytime, that's right. Well I don't wanna take it slow. So tell me now I got to go cuz I got it. I'm gonna give it to you. And you know it. What where when how when who? Or should I supersize it supervise it supersize it oh yeah Or should I supersize it suervise it supersize it oh yeah Or should I supersize it supervise it supersize it oh yeah Or should I supersize it supervise it supersize it oh yeah. Raise your hand. Raise your voice. Raise your head. Up from the desk. Look who's here. Well well well. Guess it's time. For show and tell. Got to, wanna, got to, wanna. Oh what should I do and where should we go? What should I bring? I think you know that I've got it. I'm gonna give it to you. And you know it. What where when how when who?
Again, you posted a comment in responce to my comment and so are in no possition to call anyone else a troll. Perhaps projection isn't bullshit after all.
It's not just the law! As a matter of fact, legislation would do nothing. As a matter of fact, the 14th amendment to the US constitution gave everyone ("excluding Indians not taxed") the right to vote, regardless of race. But, uh, that wasn't the reality. Law and how things actually work are two different things.
Looove this video... Lol soulinite you do have a point about the majority of Le Tigre fans being middle/upper class white girls with a liberal arts education (or poncy indie boys) but that's not true for all of us! Ye of little faith, I am slavic trash from a low socio-economic background and have friends into them from a variety of background. Although I am guilty of the liberal arts education lol...:) x
Yap yap. Pfft... too easy. Liz lemon trying to get out of jury duty by showing up in a princess leia costume reading a playgirl mag and using the excuse of 'I don't really think it's fair for me to be on a jury, because I can read minds.'
Star wars stuff... Whatever - I only know the basics. That was Jason's thing. Only liked the 3 original ones though. I don't know. Some hologram code in a droid or something? Nobody knoooows.
funny thing about what you're saying i just thought it was about the worst video ever. even after i read the comments and found out that it was supposed to make people think of something dirty, the only part i saw that was with the scissors
Yeah, I support the separation of people into groups according to their sex organs in ways that arent relevant to their sex organs as well! No tampons or dresses for men! No jockstraps or jobs for women! Viva la revolution!
as for the music, it's a pointless argument. personally, id show le tigre to my kids before i show them, say, christina aguilera. so what if it's merely for the ideology? i see nothing wrong with having opinions of your own, expressing them in a creative way and standing up for them.
Unique and immortal. Love them with the same intensity years and years later (and it’s 2022).

I'm jealous
Gaddamn, this comment has been here for 15 years lol an ancient rune hath been scribed here lol
It's so weird to see on youtube; "Uploaded 13 Years Ago"
I know Huh I was feeling and thinking the same thing to hahaha LOL !
18yrs now 😅
One doesn't have to subscribe to the entirety of the band's message to enjoy the music & take something from it. Art...
i love le tigre's message. and this album is amazing!
Yeahs Love It To Fo Sho!
💞
I am a Republican and I think Kathleen Hanna is the most underrated female in American music in my life. I am 51 and I crank Julie Ruin.
There's still time to improve yourself.
Do you know what their music is about? Do you know anything about Kathleen Hanna?
@NeonVomitz I know a lot about Kathleen Hanna, and I like her very much. Why do you ask?
@@csurname What would you suggest I do?
@@rudolfthered Learn about other people

They deserved an award for this video clip and track
Yup They Really Fucking Do For Sure Fo Reals !
The intro reminds me of a really lofi, alternative version of pet cheetah lol

Well except the moaning. Also how’s like 14 years later
saudades❤
office supplies have never looked so hot!
Yup True Dat !
I just love JD to death.
Your opinion was one of the few that was well conceived, and it's a shame no one replied to that comment in six years.
Best band and festival primavera sound 2023 porto great great well well well

In what way am I being sexist?
I love it!
I actually love the girl who puts her hands in her pockets dress :3

Agreed with you...
The first time you said it,
"You CAN force equity where it doesn't exist. "
^.~
Where is this band now ?!
the video itself is a pretty piece of art. Le tigre goo go go 8-) u rock
Speaking of spending a lifetime deciphering Le Tigre texts... anybody remember that oddly hilarious Frank Zappa thing at the end of the album version?
i love this
Me Too !
2:42
LoL "0000000000h"
Now I feel like a perv for watching a girl playing with scissors and reading a book while eating chocolate...
I love you Kathleen!
Dang I really hope this erasers it’s recognition. So tight
Sexuality in everyday objects...reminds me of salvador dali's work...actually to be more precise dali reminded me of this video, I saw his moma exhibit right after this video.

so wonderfully bizzare.

NOKIA in the box..🤗
yay
this video is brilliant!
great video!
Aaaaaaaaaah when they put that stuff on a telephonenumberbook at 22:00....... that is the nicest thing i've EVER seen
Did it take you two years to think of thatcrazypants! I didn't mean to step on this iconic song...
Same here. i think for me it was wayyyy back in 2002 freshman year.
Good comment Babeintoyland666. Couldn't agree with you more!
this video is just... rad.
COOL SONG :)
soulinite: Feminism is not only the belief that women should be equal to men under the law, but also the belief that women should be equal to men in society, pay, and politics.
what you like and what you need?
Cool. "Those lesbians" need to be everywhere on the radio :)
Um...right.
I dig the video. It's very cool. I also dig Le Tigre, quite a lot, actually.
As a canadian I live in a true democracy.
You are correct however in that america is a republic not a true democracy with the rights of the individual enshrined in the constitution.
cuando hubo?
cuando fue? donde? :S por que nunca se nada?
luv the music vids :P always so trippin
Please link to the study.
Sensual.
that is "you can't force equity where it doesn't exist".
"but then of course: vive le discours, so keep on criticizing"
This is an excellent attitude, you are a credit to feminism.
hell, it's awesomenezzz XD
"Le Tigre doesn't kill anyone or ruin anyone's self esteem". Unlike those evil fashion magazines that you choose to buy every week... but only because the patrichary makes you.
You listened to Deceptacon? "Let's hear you try to depoliticise my rhymes"? They don't want their music and politics to be separate.
I LOVE YOU!
lol, very true!
yes, majority rules is a basic concept of democracy. Women are the majority and so they rule.
Uh huh.
Got to, wanna, got to, wanna.
Raise your hand. Raise your voice.
Raise your head up from the desk.
Look who's here.
Well well well.
Guess it's time.
For show and tell.
Well what do you like and what do you need?
How should I act and who should I be?
Cuz I got it.
I'm gonna give it to you.
And you know it.
What where when how when who?
I'm gonna give you the answer tonight.
Gonna give you the answer anytime, that's right.
Well I don't wanna take it slow.
So tell me now I got to go cuz I got it.
I'm gonna give it to you.
And you know it.
What where when how when who?
Or should I supersize it supervise it supersize it oh yeah
Or should I supersize it suervise it supersize it oh yeah
Or should I supersize it supervise it supersize it oh yeah
Or should I supersize it supervise it supersize it oh yeah.
Raise your hand. Raise your voice. Raise your head.
Up from the desk.
Look who's here.
Well well well.
Guess it's time.
For show and tell.
Got to, wanna, got to, wanna.
Oh what should I do and where should we go?
What should I bring?
I think you know that I've got it.
I'm gonna give it to you.
And you know it.
What where when how when who?
You are the one who responded to me, so I ask you who is the troll?
this reminds me of the movie ghost world
Thanks, now i'm a revirgin. O^
Again, you posted a comment in responce to my comment and so are in no possition to call anyone else a troll. Perhaps projection isn't bullshit after all.
COOOL.
Oh, YAY! I am so happy about that I will just BURST.

I love it :D
Le Tigre is so great.

@JackPhelpswho - having met her at about two feet distance, I'd say it's real. :)
Who's bringing the tube socks!!
Btw. Check out Yelle !
Damn, i don't get it - what's the subliminal message and how is it conveyed?

Kat
Looove this video...

well not really. they are clearly using enuendo in the song/video.
fucking love it!
Stalin and W bush accomplished a lot as well. Would you consider them beyond criticism?
SupaDope
Yap yap. Pfft... too easy.

Lol... a jury of MY 'peers'.
Lol... And they sure don't look good for any of y'all.
funny thing about what you're saying
i just thought it was about the worst video ever.
even after i read the comments and found out that it was supposed to make people think of something dirty, the only part i saw that was with the scissors
So you are saying that if the truth happens to be offensive we shouldn't talk about it?
Yeah, I support the separation of people into groups according to their sex organs in ways that arent relevant to their sex organs as well! No tampons or dresses for men! No jockstraps or jobs for women! Viva la revolution!
I came here to express my opion about this band.
LOL
This is a very intersting claim but where is your evidence?
as for the music, it's a pointless argument. personally, id show le tigre to my kids before i show them, say, christina aguilera. so what if it's merely for the ideology? i see nothing wrong with having opinions of your own, expressing them in a creative way and standing up for them.
