Miley Cyrus joins the boys' club

Salon  

It’s hard being a living doll. RIP childhood.” It’s impossible to consider her performance without noting the following: 1) a 36-year-old Robin Thicke, standing onstage while Cyrus gyrated around him; and 2) the use of women as props and accessories, a habit that practically defines music industry productions. When famous women get too big for their, admittedly sometimes really small, britches, our culture likes to make sure that what’s inside that often “pretty head” is seen as crazy. Last night’s performance brought the public’s perception of Cyrus one step closer to the "crazy" narrative -- the casually misogynistic, “OMG, quick, look at another crazy, fucked up, slutty girl go down.” It’s often a white girl, because they’re more commonly featured in our dominantly white cultural narrative. Lauryn Hill went so far as to sing, “I’m not crazy,” at one point.
