I could forgive the man-down-video cause the girl did something wrong out of short time reaction. And she regretted it.
But in this video the hence women do what they do to the hostage. And they have time to be cool and evaluate what they do. Is this what happens when women get the power?
Or are we going back to the nature (I mean to the cave era)?

Is this what happens when you grow up and have your first disappointments behind you?
Compare Rihanna's glance of when she was 17 and now.
We say God is with us but you don't see the same vitality in our eyes that we had when we left our parents's house never again.

It's truly violent stuff, especially for a singer who started out with nice songs about DJs on the beach (Pon De Replay, anyone?).

"It also serves to show that females can be confident within their bodies, enough so to get nude for a music video while being completely empowered."
Are they talking about Rihanna? Because the hostage was totally disempowered.

"pay the piper" otherwise...
In 1284, while the town of Hamelin was suffering from a rat infestation, a piper dressed in colorful red clothing appeared, claiming to be a rat-catcher. ... Despite the piper's success, the mayor reneged on his promise and refused to pay him the full sum. The piper left the town angrily, vowing to return later to take revenge. ...
Revenge is stupid.
It can go out of proportion but it changes the history as much as acceptance does. And I know it is not avoidable. Still a stupid thing in presence of intelligence.
In Marina Tsvetaeva long poem "Krysolov" ("The rat catcher") rats are allegory of people influenced by Bolshevik propaganda.
Revolutions are often based on the revenge. Do you like it?
While Rihanna was busy with this revenge (for all the background frustrators she does not talk about), she lost the overview and did not see how wrong it is to torture kidnap victims.

It bothers me too.
It's inhuman behaviour, and people seem to accept it more readily now-a-days
It makes the world a little bit scarier. Life is cheap, apparently

Well, violence. If you give some an inch, they'll take a mile.
Heh...good thing then that everybody doesn't follow rihanna.
