I don& #39;t know when will this obsession with lana ends but after much reading, the conclusion I come to is that there& #39;s actually a market in the US for portrayals of meek, submissive women that is abused by the men she& #39;s with.

That& #39;s also maybe why Twilight is so popular.
50 Shades is popular too because women, or maybe people, I& #39;m not sure, actually likes this trope. In that side of the world.

In this side of the world, that portrayal of femininity is something I could live without as I& #39;ve internalised it all the time growing up.
A tweeter a few years ago say that white men particularly like malay women because of them being trained to be submissive and follow men however much like a lana& #39;s song character.

In a way, lana is the malay men wet dream probably as much as much as a white man& #39;s one.
This thread may be an incoherent jumble but seeing how US women talks about how 3rd wave feminism doesn& #39;t benefit them by having them shed their femininity and be masculine to prove their worth is kinda like Lana& #39;s sentiments in her so-called letter to the culture.
