Beyonce, the entertainer really shouldn't be expected to be on a soapbox for other people's personal issues or agendas. If she makes a public statement on the news that she's for same sex marriage is it required for her to write a song about it? She ain't Bob Dylan, and while she might make a song to empower women every once in a while it's not her responsibility to champion all causes out there. If a person writes best from personal experience, perhaps the guy with the singular Slate article could try his hand at it.
Oh now I'm writing a tangential Beyonce think piece. I'll stop while I'm behind.
