La chanson aborde le thème de l'oppression des femmes, en les comparant à des esclaves, soulignant les injustices et les stéréotypes auxquels elles font face au quotidien. Elle dépeint un tableau de la pression sociale qui les pousse à se conformer à des rôles limitants, à être perçues comme inférieures et à endurer des jugements. Dans un contexte plus large, ce morceau est une réflexion sur le féminisme et les inégalités de genre des années 1970, une époque où les droits des femmes étaient en plein débat. C’est un cri de ralliement pour dénoncer ces injustices, incitant les auditeurs à remettre en question leurs préjugés et à agir pour un changement.
