Was "When Girls Get Together" an attempt at feminism?

[CenturyDeprived]

Did that song come about in part as a way to dispel the notion that the band was sexist, or sang too much about women as sex objects?

Especially at the time, with the band remaking their image, I wonder if this was a concerted effort to make the band seem more grown-up and, and specifically feminist in some fashion.

I suppose WGGT and Smart Girls must both be the most feminist type songs the band ever recorded. Even though, somehow, Hey Little Tomboy got recorded in between

good pick, good question CD.
an odd little song.
i do not believe that it is about feminist notions,
rather it appears to me to be a strange waltz about the circle of life.
they pulled it from the vaults for KTSA; it was written and recorded about 10 yrs earlier.

- i like it

What they said.

If Smart Girls is pro-feminism, I'd bet even the most public relations-starved feminist would want to keep his or her distance. "BIG BRAINS ARE AWESOME, DUDE!"

To me, the lyrics of WGGT never made an awful lot of sense. That said, count me in as a fan of the song as a whole.

Considering Good Time was written in the same time period and it is decidedly ANTI feminist if not downright sexist, I would say no.
