Amy Winehouse masterfully challenges traditional gender roles and expectations in relationships through her compelling lyrics. In this song, she expresses frustration with her partner's inability to be the strong, dominant figure typically expected of men. She critiques his emotional dependency and lack of assertiveness, which forces her into a leadership role she feels reluctant to fill. The repeated questioning of his masculinity and references to feeling like "a lady and you my ladyboy" highlight her dissatisfaction and desire for a partner who can match her strength. Overall, Winehouse delivers a poignant message on the dynamics of love and power within modern partnerships.
