This song strikes me resilient while listening to the album. When it reaches this song the mood completely changes from a bouncy techno induced fantasy into a scary dark corner of ambient pulsations. I definitely agree that this song has feminist themes to it. While listening to the first verse I envision a typical housewife (mostly a woman who may be seen as too nice and not capable of defending herself). Then the cynical 'na na na' plays and the tables have turned. The next verse is much more dominant, and very clear.. basically "fuck with me and I'll retaliate." The part about castrations resonates beyond. Someone suppressed by sexual identity.
