The Meaning Of Ariana Grande’s ‘Side To Side’ Is Way More Sexual Than We Thought
By Julia Brucculieri

Ariana Grande sure has come a long way from the cat-ear-wearing days of yesteryear. Now, she’s a bona fide dangerous woman who isn’t afraid to tell us all about her sex life.
 
First, there was “Love Me Harder,” in which The Weeknd sings about making her (or any girl, in general) moan, then came “Into You ,” when the pop star told us she wanted “a little more touch my body.” Finally, we were blessed with “Side to Side,” a catchy pop tune featuring Nicki Minaj that’s all about having so much sex you can’t walk straight. (Yes, you read that right.) 

Grande confirmed this very meaning of the song to reporters at the MTV Video Music Awards, where the video premiered. 
“That whole song is about riding leading to soreness,” she said, adding, “’Ride dick bicycle’ is the lyric, indeed.”

Ariana Grande Reveals the NSFW Meaning Behind Her ‘Side to Side’ Collaboration With Nicki Minaj
By Evan Real August 31, 2016

Talk about TMI! Ariana Grande revealed the NSFW — and very literal — meaning behind her track “Side to Side,” which features Nicki Minaj. According to the singer, the Top 40 hit is about having so much intercourse that walking in a straight line becomes a problem.

Chatting with MTV News on Sunday, August 28, the powerhouse vocalist, 23, said that despite her bicycle-themed performance with Minaj, 33, at the 2016 Video Music Awards, the sexually charged tune is actually about riding something else. (Yep, you guessed it.)

“That whole song is about riding leading to soreness,” the pop star explained. “'Ride d--k bicycle’ is the lyric, indeed.”

So unless your definition of feminism is endless sex...... Me, I relate feminism to women's equality and empowerment. But I'm open to other perspectives.
