"Whether or not Hill is merely using these comments as examples of the smokescreens and sleight-of-hands that pervade this 'Neurotic Society' is unclear," wrote BET's Monica Miller in a critical column. "Beyond intention, these sorts of statements suggest that society is in a shambles because it's been taking too many cues from the LGBTQ community, acting like 'girl men,' 'drag queens' and 'transvestites.' Is her beef with oppressive society or is her issue with people who don't abide by a traditional family structure?"
She added: "For those who don't feel me, would it be okay if her song criticized 'neurotic society' for acting like 'N-----s,' 'mammies,' and 'jezebels?' No!"
Out magazine also weighed in, questioning if the lyrics "social transvestism/subliminal dressed up as piety," could be interpreted as a "jab at organized religion, especially the Catholic Church which Hill has denounced in the past."
