Asking for It Lyrics

Every time that I sell myself to you
I feel a little bit cheaper than I need to
I will tear the petals off of you
Rose red I will make you tell the truth

Was she asking for it?
Was she asking nice?
Yea she was asking you for it...

    This particular lyric shows how hard it is for an SA survivor to talk about it

    I feel like this song is about rape and stereotypes with women. "Do you think you can make me do it again?" Could mean that it someone is saying that they are tired of people just taking them for granted and hitting on them. "Be a model or look like one" this is obviously people with the expectations of all women looking a certain way (beauty standards). This is all about feminism I think.
