The moment Dior's "We Should All Be Feminists" t-shirt hit the Spring 2017 runway, it instantly became the It item of the season. Spotted on the street style scene, celebrities at the Women's March and even Bad Gal Riri herself, the statement-making top made its rounds on women, but noticeably no male celebrities—until now.

A$AP Rocky, fashion killa and style star, wears the Dior tee in his new music video for "Wrong" with A$AP Ferg. Following a J.W. Anderson capsule collection, several Dior Homme campaigns and a song dedicated to Raf Simons, it makes sense that the fashion-loving rapper would be the first male celebrity to rock the Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie-quoted tee.

But while it's great to see Rocky repping women's rights (in a rap video nonetheless), there's still a major issue with the song itself. In "Wrong," the A$AP mob rappers apologize to women for their cheating, womanizing ways, but the lyrics don't quite align with the "We Should All Be Feminists" message on Rocky's shirt. "White model bitch doin' cocaine / Layin' her out in the hallway / Double strappin' on a ratchet bitch...Man I done lost me a classy bitch," Ferg raps, adding, "Shouldn't have never been with them other broads," in another verse.

Maybe it's just me, but it's seems pretty contradictory to refer to women as "broads" and "bitches" while sporting a "We Should All Be Feminists" tee. Granted, A$AP Rocky isn't the one rapping those specific lyrics (his verse instead goes "Father please forgive us / Couldn't tell the difference and it's on me / I don't need to seek attention / Just to keep these womens on me"), but he's still part of the track. Plus, "these womens" isn't the most flattering term, either.

While it's exciting to see a man embrace feminism with a loud-and-proud t-shirt (especially one as fashion obsessed as A$AP Rocky), it would be even more exciting for men to stop referring to women as "bitches" altogether—especially while apologizing to them in song.

Let this be a reminder that statement-making feminist t-shirts are great (especially when they support charity) but we need to uphold the messages they send too. Otherwise, what's the point?
