IMO the song can be interpreted either way. I still don't like the song because rape is such a big problem and it feels weird to sing a happy song where a guy is being so goddamn insistent when the girl is saying no, even if playfully. --- Touch fuzzy get dizzy. <cite>Wetterdew posted [p:913758247] in Is Baby It...

scar the 1 12/08/18 5:14:51 AM #16:	A modern reading could conclude that the song is rapey, yeah. Originally it's about a woman who wants to stay but knows that society would judge her for it. The man is sensitive to this and suggests legitimate excuses. But that context isn't readily remembered by everyone, since most people who lived in that time are dead or dying. So of course people hearing it today would associate it with a bit more rapey tones. That's why it's good to talk about it, so people grow informed and their reading can become more nuanced. --- Everything has an end, except for the sausage.

She's literally agreeing with him at parts that it's cold outside and doesn't want to leave. also, she asks him for a cigarette so she can stay longer.
