I think people think that was because that's the way it was written,

The "backs of other women" line paints a very specific sexual position that is predominantly heteronormative. (doggie-style sorry to get real but here we go)

Sorry am I the only person who thinks this a gender-swap song?

It seems so obvious to me. yes, I want it to be about Lesbians but it's not. In this song she is personifying a man. And she does a brilliant fucking job of it, and to say she is doing anything else is taking this great song and making it LESS than it is.

A beautiful gender-swap, a perfect look from the male perspective, and he does it with grace and makes a beautiful song. Just perfect.
