Who exactly are these people making rules on what we can wear? Is there a committee? Can we go to a meeting or something? So Madonna wore a very complex, intricate, and revealing design to the Met Gala this week, and unsurprisingly, people got offended and upset. Brendan and Dean try to break down what the big deal was, and ultimately agree with Madonna herself that it’s pretty silly to try to define what people can and can’t wear, especially when they’re saying it because she’s a woman, and she isn’t nineteen. Once that is out of the way, the pair dive into the real theme of this year’s Met Gala…bondage. We’re not sure which “machine” the creators were referring to, but there was so many harness, latex, rubber and bondage on display, the guys are pretty sure what “machine” they’re thinking about. But is the use of fetish in fashion a source of freedom, or it is part of the hyperfsexualiation of women and even to some degree gay men?
