It's about a woman being plied with drugs to lower her inhibitions so she can have sex when ordinarily she wouldn't to. You could make the same argument about spiking a woman's drink with a date rape drug.
I'm not saying it is equivalent, but I can understand how if some women have been coerced into being sexually exploited using these very same techniques, Ithen they may not find the song as amusing as most men do.
You (and SC) must not have read the article. 'What's in this drink' isn't a reference to a spiked drink.
