Well, the song meaning is beyond discussion. Lily has already said that it was critic against misogyny, but, even if she didn't, she stated a pretty clear point. What remains to be said is that she's absolutely right.
Sure there is different standarts to women, specially in the music business. Take the Britney Spears example. She was rocketed up to the stars only to be put down in every possible opportunity, and while it was not so explicit in Lily's case, she suffered the same horrible treatment by public opinion. And, talking of prejudice, some of the criticised behaviors were tolerated, if not stimulated, in men, going as far as tainting the reputation of those who did not abide to said standarts.
