The 1940s song is a back and forth between 2 people. It's ironic that the so-called feminist girl boss types who think the song is problematic don't realize that the women is an active player in the situation described in the song as much as the man. However, they are not much for subtlety and logic. They are actually making that woman into some damsel in distress even as they claim they don't like that kind of stuff. If the woman in the song actually wanted to go home, she would say "Bye, see you next time. Off I go" and would have left, unless they don't think women can make decisions for themselves and act on them.
What is actually happening in the song is the woman is giving responses that make it seem like she is considering leaving without actually committing to leaving or leaving. She clearly does this because she likes the attention from the guy and wants to keep it coming. What the leftists actually don't like about the song is 2 fold:
It describes a woman attracked to a man. They can't have that. All women need to be lesbians and hate men.
It's not degenerate. If she had just slept with the dude and left, and maybe had an abortion afterwards, they would call it empowering. Because none of that happened, they are pissed.
