Critically-incorrect
editI thought that the complaints about the song "reflecting the era" and being "politically incorrect" were silly. The song was designed to be part of a story. The lyrics are superficial on purpose; they reflect the shallowness of the character singing them rather than any deficiency on the part of Hammerstein. You might as well complain that Jud's lecherous "Little Room" song from Oklahoma is politically incorrect. 24.98.52.4 (talk) 20:34, 20 August 2011 (UTC)
I concur with 24.98.52.4; that paragraph smacks of subjectivity and there is no balancing viewpoint. There are plenty of women that enjoy this song and it's something of an anthem in the gay community. It is culturally important in that the response to "I Enjoy Being a Girl" appears to change as social preferences tend to change around it.Pinikadia 11:51, 19 March 2012 (UTC)

I Enjoy Being a Girl (song) → I Enjoy Being a Girl – I Enjoy Being a Girl is currently a disambiguation page listing only this article and I Enjoy Being a Girl (album). The song, widely-known and covered, is clearly the primary topic vs. an album that happens to use a cover of the song as its title track. The disambiguation page is unnecessary when there are only two topics to disambiguate; the album article can just be linked via a hatnote. Theoldsparkle (talk) 16:38, 23 May 2011 (UTC)
- Support. Clear primary topic. Dab page can be deleted per WP:TWODABS and a hatnote should be added to this article. Jenks24 (talk) 05:05, 24 May 2011 (UTC)
