Do girls just wanna have fun?
The lyric in question labels women as childish immature girls who care for nothing important except trivial selfish matters. In other words it is *complete and utter nonsense*. My sister recently invested a lot of her time and money to volunteer in Uganda [details excluded]. Of course it is good to have fun, but the main *purpose* was to educate and to help make a positive difference. Everyone wants to have fun, but saying that ‘girls “just” [aka. only] want to have fun’ is a false and degrading stereotype that should be laid to rest.
That would depend on the girl. All girls are different, and I’m sure some girls, Miss Lauper included, *do* just want to have fun. But some others would also like some meaning with their fun, and some don’t like the idea of fun at all, and still others are entirely indifferent to the idea of fun. Everyone’s different…
