Fear of increased levels of homophobia, rape and domestic violence are very valid concerns when teenagers are pushed music featuring such crass and horrific lyrics.
Tegan and Sara, being lesbians, had legitimate concerns about the level of publicity achieved by OFWGKTA.
Although I like the group, it is nonetheless a strong concern how other people besides OFWGKTA, specifically young teens, are interpreting the music.
I'm sure not everyone takes it as a joke.

Musicians shouldn't have to walk on eggshells because there's a few crazies out there. People who actually take OFWGKTA seriously are probably ticking time bombs who would find another form of media to feed the void in their personalities if Odd Future didn't exist anyways.
I'd think MB members would understand expression of art and not come to Tegan & Sara's defense.
