My AS class will remember how angry I was about the VMA twerking+rape lyrics debacle. The (inspirational and marvellous) Sinead O'Connor is angry too about the way Miley Cyrus is being portrayed, for slightly different reasons. But what is particularly interesting for Language students (I am still one of those - you never stop learning) is how she uses language when describing gender issues. We will be discussing this, so get your thoughts together in advance.
