The original from Neptune's Daughter
Neptune's Daughter is a 1949 musical romantic comedy film released by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer starring Esther Williams, Red Skelton, Ricardo Montalbán, Betty Garrett, Keenan Wynn, Xavier Cugat and Mel Blanc. It was directed by Edward Buzzell, and features the Academy Award winning song Baby, It's Cold Outside by Frank Loesser.

[@jellybean4178]

Okay to clear it up for the people confused about the song, they are both thinking of ways to let her stay at his, since it was frowned upon in society to stay at a mans/partner’s house if you were unmarried. This song was about fighting the social norms of that time period. “Say whats in this drink?” It isn’t about drugging the drink, its a saying/phrase meaning ‘excuse my behaviour/blame it on the alcohol’. There is nothing creepy about this song. The original songwriter wrote it for his wife and preformed it with her! Truly a beautiful story of love! Enjoy the song! ❤️

@@kountryedge I supported feminism but as of recent I'm starting to hate it more and more and more. In fact I was with my friend (who is gay as am I) we were having lunch downtown, and you went to go refill his drink, and came back a few seconds later. And sometime after that, some idiot woman came over to him and start giving him shit and accusing him of 'looking' at her. He waved his finger at her in the dismissive manner, and told her that he was gay and there was nothing even remotely attracted to look at on her, and even if she was attractive the only thing keeping you look at that was the clothing she wore and where he could find it. Even with one step further to say that he knew that they were drag queens who dressed far more prettier and more feminine than she is. Needless to say I'm almost choked on my drink with laughter. She stammered other comment for a few seconds and said that he was only gay because he didn't want to be responsible to take care of a woman or something to that effect.

Christmas is commercialized, even by songs like we have commented on. This is the most scared event to have happened for all of mankind. May the Lord bless you and your home. You know what is happening in a deeply spiritual way. I am as well. Let's hold each other's hands in a sense and praise our King. We did not kill Him, but He freely laid His life down so all who call on Him can live with Him in eternity. Merry Christmas and the peace and joy of this season be with you today and all year long.

[@thunderbird1921]

This movie was definitely among the most controversial of the time for that reason (what likely saved it though is that it's never revealed what happened afterwards, meaning she could have slept on the couch and he in the bedroom, making this just barely acceptable). There was actually another film released two years later that makes even this look tame: Captain Horatio Hornblower. That 1951 film was EXPLOSIVELY controversial because it appeared to positively portray an adulterous romantic relationship between the Captain and his aristocrat passenger, Lady Barbara (a fictional family member of the Duke of Wellington). The film bent the rules by later revealing that it TECHNICALLY WASN'T adultery because the Captain's wife had in fact died during his voyage absence and apparently before the affair began. After Lady Barbara's post-voyage arranged marriage ends due to her husband being killed in combat, she comes to the Captain's house in Britain with a big "naughty" smile on her face and it's implied their relationship became a full on love story or marriage. Absolutely shocking for the 50s.

SepherStar In fairness, Gen Xers dealt with the "Experience vs Degree plus Certification plus Continual Education" Catch 22 first. I hear stories of people getting their CPAs back in the 60's without any of that other than the test. So yeah Boomers and prior generations did have a pretty cushy run. But I listen to these Millenials and they talk about "Leave it to Beaver" as if it were the new Star Wars movie, and they are sad because they found the American Dream the same way we Xers did, just a Dream, not real, and neither is Beaverville or Pleasantville.

This is a very adorable , flirtatious and silly(in a good way) song. I wish more songs were like this nowadays .

[@Odysseus201]

In context, there is nothing wrong with this song 1. The hesitation to stay by the woman in the first part, and the man in the second part, is mostly social commentary on societal norms on how men and women should behave with regards to premarital sex. The concern is not with spending the night with the lover, but how it would be perceived by society 2. “what’s in this drink” does not mean the drink has drugs in it. It was an idiom common at the time that implied “this is a strong drink” or “I feel a bit buzzed.” In this case, it could even mean that “l have strong feelings for you but I’m blaming the drink” It’s easy to cherry pick a few words and use them out of context and twist them to mean what you want them to mean. It’s particularly telling how those objecting to this song fail to even mention the reversed roles of the second part.

Odysseus youre exactly right

[@AtomiskZabaleta]

when she says "the answer is *_no_*" SJWs seem to hold on to this one in particular, i guess. in their infinite many wrinkles they seem to think this implies the song should cut off here, to silence, or something. and while he does keep removing her hat and coat, touches her thigh, etc(The most risque part of the scene for back then) you can see he draws the line at forcing; it looks to me like he wouldn't dream of it, letting her pull away at every opportunity but trying to reel her back in. he's just trying to convince a girl he has feeling for, that he believes has feelings for him, to stay with him. I have a feeling if she really set her foot down, it'd be different. The first one, the way they rest at the end, in conclusion, very much appears as though he succeeded in convincing her to stay. She, smilingly, gently, sits down with him again. No forcing here. The SECOND example ends more like rape than the first, with the man being unable to escape from the girl who is in _His fucking house._ PUSHING HIM ONTO A COUCH AND TURNING OFF A LIGHT. He even has an almost uncomfortable look: "What will this do to my reputation...." But you won't see SJW's raising a stink about it. because apparently women can't rape.

[@kaiyas9464]

It's quite a fascinating cultural study, actually. The culture at the time was that women couldn't consent to casual sex: they needed some plausible way to convince others (and perhaps even themselves) that they were forced/talked into it. And a culture in which women can't give a clear Yes is also a culture in which there's no way to give a clear No (cf. Mr Collins and Elizabeth Bennett).
