Harsh but true. I'm not anti-men by any means but male musicians always seem to romanticise these ladies of easy virtue in their songs ;-)
But, as someone else pointed out, the two examples you quoted didn't really fit the '****' profile. Besides, I doubt the Donovans and Cat Stevens of the world are dragged unwilling into the sack.
'You'll never stop me from loving you' (threat)
'It doesn't really matter what you put me through' (doormat)
'Wherever you will go I will follow you' (stalker)
All sung in a disturbingly chirpy melody! The creepiest song of all time.
Destiny's Child - Nasty Girl
"You make it hard for women like me who respect themselves and have dignity"
Eurghhhhh.....they sound so judgemental and bitchy. Then again, this kind of ****-shaming song is judgemental and bitchy. I bet Beyonce and gang look back on this song and cringe.
I always thought Nasty Girl was a strange fish that sat uncomfortably alongside their more positive, female-empowering anthems such as Independent Women and Survivor
"Here comes one for the ladies for ones who loved me" irritates the hell out of me as it is cheesier than a case of Stilton in a warehouse full of Brie"

We're just having a laugh.
"I hear you coming when I ring the dinner bell"
Seriously, she rings a bell when dinner is ready?!
It's by no means unknown! You might do that in a big house, or somewhere people might be working outside like a farm.
Sure, but it's a bit far-fetched in a context of a teenage girl singing to her boyfriend though. :-)

Maybe not in Ireland ;-)

"I Want Your Sex"
No. No, you didn't, George. >:(
I swear I won't tease you
Won't tell you no lies
Yeah, right. ^_^
