‘30 years ago I published a book called S.E.X. In addition to photos of me naked there were photos of Men kissing Men, Women kissing Women and Me kissing everyone,’ she wrote.

‘I also wrote about my sexual fantasies and shared my point of view about sexuality in an ironic way.’

According to her, she was shamed for openly expressing her empowerment and slandered and shunned by many because of this.

‘I spent the next few years being interviewed by narrow-minded people who tried to shame me for empowering myself as a Woman,’ she continued. ‘I was called a whore, a witch, a heretic and the devil.’

‘Now Cardi B can sing about her WAP. Kim Kardashian can grace the cover of any magazine with her naked ass and Miley Cyrus can come in like a wrecking ball,’ the pop icon said. ‘You’re welcome b—-es.’ She added

The singer then shared an interview clip from 1992 in which she was paired up with an interviewer who was incredibly uncomfortable with the release of the book.

‘What did you get out of it?’ she countered when asked if there was a message in the book. The interviewer replied he was ‘afraid’ because he’d ‘never seen the likes of it.’

To which Madonna replied, ‘You’ve never read Playboy magazine, or Penthouse, or anything like that?’

‘I think people’s reaction to specific situations in the book was much more a reflection of that person than me,’ she added.
