The song's writer, Anslem Douglas, said that the original song 'Doggie', on which the hit single is based, is actually an anti-patriarchy anthem.

He told the Huffington Post newspaper that the chart-topping tune is ''a man-bashing song'' and he explained that his definition of 'dogs' is badly-behaved men.

He explained, too, that in the song, women are bemoaning some gents who have called them rude names, describing them as ''dogs''.
