Overall Meaning

Dua Lipa's song "Boys Will Be Boys" is a powerful commentary on gender inequality and the way in which women are forced to navigate a world that is often hostile and dangerous. The opening verse describes the fear and anxiety that women feel when walking alone at night, highlighting the fact that this fear has become "second nature" for many women. The line "put your keys between your knuckles when there's boys around" is a reference to the self-defense tactic of holding keys between one's fingers, ready to use as a weapon if necessary. Lipa goes on to criticize the societal pressure on women to hide their bodies and keep quiet in order to avoid harassment or assault, saying that "We hide our figures, doin' anything to shut their mouths." The chorus juxtaposes the societal expectations placed on boys versus girls, saying "boys will be boys" but "girls will be women" - implying that women are held to a higher standard of behavior and maturity than men.

In the second verse, Lipa takes aim at the concept of "mansplaining" and the assumption that there will always be a man around to save the day. She sarcastically suggests that she should have stuck to ballet instead of trying to make her voice heard, in reference to the stereotype that women should be passive and unopinionated. The bridge of the song speaks directly to anyone who might be offended by the lyrics, challenging them to examine their own behavior and attitudes towards women.

Overall, "Boys Will Be Boys" is a powerful and timely commentary on the pervasive inequality and danger that women face in society, and a call to action for everyone to do better.

I'm scrolling through so many top comments seeing people get attacked by men saying feminism is bad. I'm going to get attacked for the following but I don't even care anymore.

Feminism isn't
Women > men
Its
Women = men
Feminism isn't a bad thing. I am in no way excusing women to silent men, that's just terrible. A true feminist will advocate for both mens and womens rights.

A lot of people have also been saying its ridiculous that the song was made just about women. I'm not saying that men don't get sexually harassed or raped, it just happens more to women. This song was made to spread awareness about womens problems, it doesn't say mens problems don't exist. Its a bit like it someone makes a video educating people on cancer they don't get attacked because other people have heart disease and they should've included both. When people talk about the high rates of female sexual harassment and rape, they say men have it harder because the suicide rates are higher. We understand the suicide rates are higher, and that is a problem, but people don't then attack you saying 'but women also commit suicide'. In fact I've had many suicide attempts but I still support videos on mens suicide rates, mainly because I can understand the priority here. This is our point, sexual harassment doesn't only happen to women , but it happens more. The first time I've been sexually harassed I was 11, it was my uncle. Since then I've hadrandom guys try to hold my hands and etc. That's my reason for being scared of men. I saw someone comment that a 25 year old women ran away from the when they were 16, during the night. They called it ridiculous.may seem ridiculous 2 you but u don't know what that person have been through . There are certainly points i haven't proved in this comment and people might attack me with those but in that case I'll just edit it. I don't care whether or not you attack me.

When I was 11 years old, I got sexually harassed. I never opened up about this story but I feel like I need to share it and get it out of my chest.

This happened 4 years ago.
It was the afternoon,I went to the beach with my aunt, her friends and my younger brother.
We had a small picnic on the sand then after half an hour decided to go swimming. Both me and my brother were like 10 or 5 meters away from our aunt swimming. She was on the other side with her friends. While me and my younger brother were playing in the water and splashing each other. Suddenly, a strange man came to us in the water and started talking to us. He carried my little brother on his back while swimming and played with him and I generally thought he was just a friendly stranger. Few minutes later, he left my brother swim by himself and he stood in front of me. He started slowly touching me in places he shouldn't be. He literally groped me, but I was too innocent and confused to understand what was happening.. I just stood there frozen with a puzzled and scared expression. I'll never forget the disgusting grin he had on his face.

I couldn't talk to my aunt about it, even though I had the chance to tell her about what happened when the man was still there. I couldn't process what happened and I felt uncomfortable about it for a few days.

Two years later, I realized that I had been sexually harassed by a pedophile. And I realized what had really happened. Ever since then, it's became my trauma. I felt guilty about it for a while because I didn't tell anyone. I also felt worried about the other girls that disgusting beings like him would assault in the future.

I wish my parents told me more about this world, but I had to learn it all the hard way. I wish I would've been taught earlier to value my body and not let anyone just touch me like this.

But it has already happened, and I learned to move on and be careful. And to be honest, I'm proud of who I became today. I'm braver now and know how to take care of myself. I have had a couple of incidents where I stood up for myself. Whether it's when I get catcalled or leered at by creeps from my balcony. I'm the last girl to let it slide!

I just love this song so much because it's relatable for me and because the line "but girls will be women" makes me feel strong.

Edit: I just wanna thank everybody's considerate replies to my comment. I still remember this every now and then, along with a few other terrible incidents and shed tears. When I do, I like to often visit back my comment here and read your replies. (Although I don't like listening to the song anymore because it reminds me of my trauma.) Thank you all, truly, for making me feel heard.. ❤

The contrast between "boys will be boys" and "girls will be women" is powerful. To me it highlights how young girls are sexualized long before they become women. They're seen, physically, as women before they hit adulthood. And because they mature "faster," they're not only expected to be more mature than boys emotionally, but they're told to be ever so mindful of how they present themselves physically when they're around boys. Meanwhile "boys will be boys" at any age because that's just how they are; they just don't know any better.

This song is not about sexual violence. It's about how society excuses boys even when they should be held accountable. This results in girls actually growing up and becoming responsible for far more than they should be including their own safety while boys just don't. The song is not blaming the boys. It's blaming the people saying these things in the hearing of kids and not raising them right.

I was 12 and it was my first time getting a train home from school by myself and a drunk middle aged man sat down right beside me and called me a pretty lady. When he said that I stood up and walked away whilst waited for the next stop and when the train stopped I got out, he followed me. I was running away from him but he kept following me so I darted around a corner and thankfully lost him. I ran to my house and quickly locked the door, I was home alone as well and was having a mini panic attack thinking about what would have happened if I didn’t run - I have never been so scared in my life. I was 12 when this happened and this man looked about 50, the men that harass young girls/ women and so sick!

I'm sick of women constantly blaming all their problems in life on men and saying how oppressed they are all the time. That's annoying as hell. However this tackles women's safety and the things we actually suffer with. And I like how she doesn't just say all men are bad. She says that the ones who are dangerous is because that's what they were taught. Very well written song.

As a boy with a twin sister I know how hard it can get for girls. I remember me and my sister playing in the playground together in school and my sister is the shy type so she would stick with me all the time but I had this boy I play with in class, this lad told my sister that she was growing breasts and he’s uncomfortable she’s hanging out with us. We were in year 6, of course she’d go through puberty. I told him it doesn’t matter because my sister was too surprised to talk then he said she shouldn’t be mad if I annoy her or touch her then this was a 12-13 year old’s words. He wasn’t educated enough to respect women and girl. that memory is stuck in my head until now even though he has told me he was just joking because it annoys me.

Never had to fight though. Most of the time I got in a tricky situation I was so angry that the guy was so baffeled they backed of long enough for me to disapear. Have that from my dad. When we get realy angry it is quit impressive and any sane human rather backs off...

@Blair Waldorf actually, false accusations of r@pe towards men are unfortunately very common. Alot of men lose their jobs, careers and land 10+ years in prison. Even when the men get released (once the people running the whole system realise that they hadn't done anything) the women always get off with ease. Not a single charge pressed against them. I've seen alot of articles on men being falsely accused. It happens alot, don't be ignorant.
Men in court are always and i mean ALWAYS guilty until proven innocent in the eyes of the law. It's extremely saddening.

I don't mean it was you also since I believe you are normal man who does respect women boundaries and do validate women's oppression.

What you are applying are misandrists women. You can't say it was "most feminists" since those words are really coming out of misandrists. I have sit with so many feminist out there and I'll say we just wanna focus on women having freedom and their rights but don't want to put down men.

It’s wrong and that’s case closed it’s open and shut, black and white you’re wrong. What really pisses me off is how you came to that conclusion. You deep down know that you have zero evidence to support this you’re just like any other leftists you write with you’re heart not you’re brain. I truly, truly don’t understand how someone can write a comment like this so obliviously. Do you not think about what you write? Because I really doubt it. You make me want to punch a wall and my classmates and every one I know don’t see me as an angry or easily angered person. That first clause is what really grinds my gears you understand that you’re wrong enough to the point that you have to start you’re statement with something like “I’m so tired” or “why does _ have to happen” which demonstrates your strong feelings. Deep down you know that your not right you know, so tell me please why you wrote this comment is it to fish for likes, or to gain subs. Tell me why because your wrong and you know it so again I say why?

when i was 12 to 15, there was a construction going on near my house and it was right in front of the bus stop, so whenever i got out of the bus from school, i had to walk past the construction to get home, and it was a nightmare. i can’t count the times i got catcalled, grown men were saying horrible things to me as i walked by. once, one of them followed me home so they knew where i lived, which was terrifying. we reported them to the police and they didn’t do anything. at some point i even got used to it!!! i thought “well, this is gonna happen, it’s probably my school uniform, they’re men and it’s what they do”. i’m almost 21 now and i’m pissed at them for making my teenage self believe such thing. thank you dua for starting this conversation

HingedCello there’s a notorious difference between someone walking near you and someone following you to your house even when you took another 4 more blocks so you loose them but they’re still constantly calling you names and whistling at you. it’s not that they knew where i lived but “haven’t done anything”. they did every time i walked by. the police should’ve done something at the fact that grown men were harassing and stalking minors (not only me, by the way). my point is, you weren’t there so stop trying to find a justification and stfu

My earliest memory is my first day of school. I was 5 years old and I had a new Harry Potter lunch box with Harry, Ron and Hermione on the front. The boy sitting next to me said, “you can’t have that, that’s a boys lunch box and those are boys movies.” Confused I responded, “but Hermione’s in them and she’s a girl.” He replied;“ she’s only in them for the boys to look at.”
I told the teacher and all he said was “you know how boys are.”

EDIT: He was also 5.

Something similar happened to me. I was in like second grade or something, and I had gotten a pair of spiderman boots on my birthday. When winter came around I was so excited to finally get to wear them in the snow. So I wore them to school, and dumb boy says, "You know those are BOY boots right?"
Me: "no there not,"
Boy: "yes they are they have spiderman on them and he's a boy superhero,"
I hated those boots from that day out. I did not want to wear them to school, but my mom had me wear them. So I covered up spiderman with my snow pants and hid my boots in my backpack for the rest of winter. I've had other experiences with this as I'm more of a Tomboy than girly girl, but this one sticks to me the most. Also I LOVE Harry Potter. My last birthday party was Harry Potter themed 😎

Me: Thinking about all the unfairness that females have to live with their entire lives compared to men and asking myself why.

Lyrics: "And the do what they see cos it's all on TV, no the kids ain't all right."

No but for real, boys can get away with a lot of stuff and girls literally grow up hearing things like, "Don't sit with your legs spread open, it's not ladylike", "Wear shorts under your skirts and dresses" and, "Don't sit facing backwards in a chair, that's what men do." Not to mention, girls have so much more to lose. Like they have to worry about their own safety, about not getting pregnant at a young age, and they have to deal with so much other crap. And then boys seriously grow up learning that it's okay to pull out their dick outside when they need to pee, whenever women literally walk the extra mile just to find a bathroom even though we have antomically smaller bladders. If we did it, we would have no way to wipe nor could we be discreet, but in general it's just not right if you think about it. Who the fuck pulls out their genitals where someone could potentially walk by and see it in public, and then if someone just did that on purpose in front of someone, wouldn't that just be a form of harassment? Anyway, sorry for the rant, it's just the amount of unfairness women have to live with sucks and I had to talk about it.

@@trolltroddsecondedition4214 just leave it bro. They love to play victims. They act like we dont have any rules and restrictions and we dont get punished when literally we are not even allowed to talk about our problems without some one saying " man up" .
They say " yeah we know men have problems but women have more" no, they talk more and victimize themselves more, thats all.
And they say, qhy are u commenting men problems here, this is about women" and then they come to men videos and say " women have problems"
also, what they dont understand is " women problems are cared by society and system but no one guves a shit about men" so we talk them on internet but they just had to act like only women got problems, and say stupid quotes " men will understand, boys will get offended " like wtf, its called being open minded and realising that times have changed and men face problems from women too so, dont write these songs.
Funny thing is men will never write songs on women hating them, songs praising women only exist. shows maturity levels of males.

The kids aren't alright. In fact, young girls, especially in my middle school, are always being sexually harrassed. My school counselor told me, "Well, boys will be boys. Sign this paper and tell me everything that happened." I didn't realize the ignorance until weeks later. I wasn't given the comfort I needed. Nobody told me, "I believe in you, you can get through this.", or, "I'm sorry this happened to you." This frustrates me that boys are given excuses for this stuff because of standards. Sexual abuse IS NOT EXCUSABLE. EVERYONE, no matter boy or girl, DESERVES IGNORANCE.

Edit: Thank you so much for your kind words and replies. I greatly appreciate it :)

(kinf of a relevant message) What society doesn't understand is that there will always be girls who want to be themselves but can't because they are held back by family, religion, social image, etc. I am a 15 year old girl living with my family who stops me from wearing clothing that goes above my waist because their reason is "you'll look like a sl*t.", "someone will rape you if you go to a party looking like that." and things like "only hoes wear that.". And when I try to reason it's what every girl wears nowadays they'll brush it off. I understand that listening to your parents is a good thing, and I do. They'll let my older and younger brother do anything they want since they are boys. Being the only daughter I can't do anything they do, I'm expected to clean their rooms and do everything for them when I get married I'm expected to do everything for my husband. My true aspiration is to become an independent model and wear whatever I want. I may not have the ideal big boobs, slim waist, thick thighs body image but I want the world to know no matter your size, skin color, sexuality, religion, or anything else that comes a part of your identification, you can be just as beautiful as any model.I want to spread the message that women are a powerful gender and that we can do anything without men. I also understand that some men are supportive and would welcome them to our fight of sexual equality. PLEASE SPREAD MY MESSAGE AND HELP THE PROBLEM BE RECOGNIZED.

welp i am offended by this song, guess theres something wrong with me. Probably due to me not conforming to the educations standards for a good student, a model based off of girls to the detriment of boys.Maybe due to the fact that I am blamed for all of societies problems due to me being a straight white male, even though im still a child and have done nothing wrong. I will be called a mysoginist for daring to express myself. I walk home scared late at night, but it doesnt matter if i get killed, because another man did it to me and that makes it ok. I have any problems as a man? Probably mens fault. I may be falsely accused of a sexual crime, but it wont matter that she confessed to lying about it, in the court of public opinion i am a criminal. My reputation is destroyed and i will lose everything. My wife will divource me and take everything from me, and when i dont met the crazy high alimony, i wont be able to see my kids and will be called a deadbeat by society. I will eventually end my own life, but nobody will care because in todays society, men are expendable and men are resources.
