It was a different world in the 60's and 70's. I would not read too much into the lyrics.

Mysogyny and the threat to male pride presented by women is one of the threads that run through Mick Jagger’s lyrics.
Mysogyny is too strongly put, as rock&roll is magnification and exaggeration, as I have once read. But I feel that the subject of tension in male/female relationships is a big part of what the Stones are famous and liked for.

Maybe misogyny is really too strong a vocabulary. Mr. Wallace had better titled his article sexism instead, imho.

Can't you see that as exaggeration and irony?! To me, that's very obvious; almost symbolic, like a cartoon. It may still not be nice, but art is not only about the nice things in life.

As in Under My Thumb , "the squirming dog who just had her day"
I am not sure of how I interpreted it since I am may be wrong with the translation but obviously ,calling a woman a dog is very despicable imo .
Plus I don't know if ,by " day" Jagger refered to women's periods - I had always thought that Jagger said "dates " instead of "day"

I don't want to sound offensive but obviously, you are on the wrong "track"

1sbzMen will never understand women. And in my experience, if you loved them you will never really get over them; sometimes not even if you only had sex for a couple of times. If you had a serious relationship for some years it is even worse. But they will become a very valuable part of your perception of life.Quote
