DUDE (LOOKS LIKE A LADY)

Aerosmith

1987     

U.S.A. - #14

Trivia:

Aerosmith courted controversy with "Dude (Looks Like A Lady)". Its lyrics were accused of transphobia. The song was written by 2 group members Steven Tyler and Joe Perry with Desmond Child. Tyler was inspired to write the song when he mistakenly assumed Vince Neil of the group Moyley Crue was a woman. Child, who is gay, dismisses claims that the song is negative towards trans individuals.
