"F+ck me and shut up."

Do you think the Depeche Mode song 'Enjoy the silence' is a social commentary about the gender'ed-myth which stipulates that men do not want, need nor appreciate after-sex discussions/conversations, for they see it as useless and ultimately just want to enjoy the silence before gently going to sleep?

Can’t you understand/ Oh my little girl /All I ever wanted /All I ever needed/ Is here in my arms/ Words are very unnecessary /They can only do harm/ Vows are spoken/ To be broken/ Feelings are intense/ Words are trivial

I was listenning to the radion at 3 in the morning yesterday night when the song came on, and it struck me as an evidence. An epiphany. Depeche Mode's lyrics are smooth, for it oh so carefully says women (or men I'd suppose) need to learn to fuck more, discuss less, and shut the hell up.

Ha. ha. Between this single and the song 'Freelove' -praising heavy guilt-free one night stands- either they're all massive sluts, or well, Massive Sluts.

Enjoy the Silence is one of my favourite 80s song.
