Sexism on Lebanese radios

"There is a new song playing on Lebanese radios that goes "We have no women who work (more accurately: We don't allow our women to work or our women should not work)... I will afford for you because I have to... because you are the president of my heart republic". The song is followed by a comment of the singer thanking all his fans and promising to keep up the good work. He then ends his statement by saying "with all due respect to women's rights". He means, not to take him wrong. He meant no harm. It's just a song! Mr whoever you are: F*** you... la lala.. F*** you lala. Don't take me wrong, I mean no insult. I am just singing with all due respect to you."
