Meg is referencing males who will support male artists who sexualise women in their lyrics, but not women who sexualise men in their lyrics.
More specifically, the star is talking about the group Tear Da Club Up Thugs—a subgroup of Three 6 Mafia—who, in 1999, released their song "Slob on My Knob." WARNING: Sexual content below,
The 1999 track includes lyrics such as, "Slob on my knob like corn on the cob / Check in with me, and do your job / Lay on the bed, and give me head / Don't have to ask, don't have to beg / Juicy is my name, sex is my game / Let's call the boys, let's run a train / Squeeze on my nuts, lick on my butt."
See the mixed reactions to Megan's response below.
Men been getting ridiculed for talking about sex in songs in for years now. But when they do it it’s okay and called women empowerment yeah okay 🤣 . double standard out the ass !! WAP Slaps thoo

“slob on my knob” could mean a lotta things. it’s ambiguous. maybe it is a doubel entendre. “WAP” clearly means only one thing. and it is in appropriate
