i find it disturbing to say at least that so many men find the fact that this song is about gang rape so exciting, like it's cool or something, fucking scary, like on yt everyone feel the need to remind/add that OH it's about that, yeah we get it already, chill man, wth

because most perpetrators of rape are men and the majority of victims are women (just statistics), so it's creepy and disturbing that they have this weird mindset themselves where it seems to excite or amuse them, your regular-ass men, are they potentially dangerous because to me it seems like they seriously lack empathy, that is scary. i wouldn't feel safe in the presence of someone like that (even if they happen to be a woman but really, who is more likely to hurt me). what do you mean how do i know? sure not every single one of them was a man but from what i've seen/ heard and the reason why i decided to make this comment in the first place is that these kind of reactions were coming mostly from men while women thought it's terrible/ sad or were put off by the song when they found out what it's about (like myself, i can't enjoy the song anymore), just my own experiences and observations, don't make a big deal out of it.

Here is part on an interview where they explain what it's about:- What is Fitzpleasure? Fitzpleasure? Erm It’s not rude is it? It is rude, well it’s not rude, it’s graphic and it’s violent. It’s based on a book by Hubert Selby Jr [Last Exit to Brooklyn]. Each chapter is about a different character and they all intertwine throughout the book. There’s a woman called Tralala so that’s why we sing [sings] Tra-la-la-la there’s a character called Tralala and it’s just about her. So basically the phrase is ‘in your snatch fits pleasure, broom shaped pleasure’ so fits and pleasure and Fitz like a second name, like Fitzpatrick so we thought Fitzpleasure, so more subtle. But it’s about the end of the chapter where she gets, er, gang-raped, so it’s really horrible.

AlvaroFTM, "Fitzpleasure" isn't a real word. It's just a nonsensical name for the song. I suppose it's a conjunction of "fits pleasure" from the lyrics "in your snatch fits pleasure". It's actually pretty disturbing once you realize what the song is about.
