Like the high school I went to is probably much less homophobic today.
When I was in Peru in '99 Meredith Brooks' song "Bitch" came on, and the people I was talking to, young people in their early twenties, my age at the time, kind of had a hard time with the lyrics.
"She's saying "soy una puta? Why would she say that?"
I tried to say, sometimes when you say the word "bitch," it's different. It's like...como una mujer muy fuerte.
Very confused stares.
Maybe it's not so hard to imagine now, though.
