Talk:Belle (song)/@comment-17971101-20140707235819/@comment-1672596-20140806003644

I wasn't particularly fond of some of Belle's lyrics in that song, at least not currently. When I was younger, I might have had sympathy, but not anymore. Having her constantly complain about the town and her living in it simply because its "the provincial life" just gets on my nerves, especially when I've had to endure several so-called educators who tried to brainwash us and call us Christians and Conservatives a lot of nasty names, even openly, sometimes just implied, either way it is done specifically to demean us, not simply offer constructive criticism. Now, if the villagers were, I don't know, actually beating her up physically, if not mentally (sort of like Boys of Bummer from the Simpsons, or how Meg is the universe's punching bag in Family Guy), or if the town was comparable to Gotham City in terms of having a broken society and an especially corrupt law system, I could understand Belle's complaints, but her disliking it because it's provincial basically makes her out to be about as bad as Gaston in terms of being somewhat rude and conceited.
