DFA unabashedly slut shame in 'Dead Womb' and, like MRAs, yearn for women willing to play the roles they were supposedly born for: wife, mother, man-pleaser.

I interviewed him in his green living room, recorded it on cassette. I asked if we could talk about the song for a piece I hoped to write. We were still friends when 'Dead Womb' came out - not close, but part of the same large, loose group.
