I'm relatively new to CHH and I have to ask, what's with the name? Why do cartoons hate her? Is there an article that explains the pseudonym?

I've heard of Sabrina Carpenter - that's it. I remember when there was controversy over Madonna's videos for “Like A Virgin,” “Express Yourself,” and “Like A Prayer” for starters; anything by the 2 Live Crew; Cyndi Lauper’s “She Bop” (both the song and video); and songs by Kiss and AC⚡DC; and all of that was pretty tame. Being 58 gives me that perspective because I read articles and saw shows about songs like “I Want to Hold Your Hand,” "Satisfaction,” and “I Think We're Alone Now” stirred up things in the 60's. This stuff just gets recycled.

I bet they're not making as much noise about some male artist with a similar cover.

Sexual and misogyny are alive and well, and nauseating me.
