Beyonce, Wife

Beyonce’s new video is a lot of fun:

But man is “Countdown” super-wifey. It’s not that I have any objection to the idea of cooking your man dinner or whatever, but lines like “I’m all up in the kitchen in my heels, dinner-time,” or “Ladies, if you love your man, show him you the flyest / Grind up on him, girl, show him how you ride it,” feel super Cosmo-y to me, and took me, I admit, a bit by surprise.
