i recall g.marcus bein disdainful abt DC's "corporate midriffs" somewhere round this date -- i actually love the phrase "corporate midriffs" but the critical sentiment strikes me as um problematic

yeah TLC were more obviously 'feminist' which rockcrits approve of, less prone to getting their midriffs out. Corporate midriffs = BRILLIANT and actually a great description of them; why anyone would think this is bad I have no idea.
