Radio station stops playing “Baby It’s Cold Outside” after listeners voice concerns about lyrics in #MeToo era
Criticism of the lyrics in “Baby It’s Cold Outside” actually has been building for several years. Some Twitter users called out the “date-rapey” undertones of the song in 2013, and a number of publications have run articles questioning the song’s meaning.
I know “Baby it’s cold outside” is from another era but hearing it in 2013, the lyrics feel really date-rapey. Uncomfortable stuff.
