    It's NOT about sex!! It has many metaphorical meanings, one of those meanings is that she's being herself. "There's sex in the air, i DON'T CARE i love the smell of it." It's about not caring what the Papparazzi and other people say about you. Rihanna is saying to do what you do and forget about what other people say.

    I think that the song is about how when doing IT, Rhianna likes to be beaten to show that the male has dominance in the bedroom. S and M stands for Sadism and Maochoism which is basically what I just said. Hope this helps!

    S&M is where women pretty much afflict pain on themselves for pleasure. It's all in the mind. Anybody who thinks that pain feels good is unfortunately VERY UNBALANCED in the mind. But it all starts from when you were taught as a baby and onward. You were not born with the knowledge of abusing drugs and partying. These Women that do this must have had some past to them to make them like this.

    It's actually Sex and Molestation.
    It can also be Sadism and Masochism. So with these combined, Rihanna enjoys the fact that she is abusing these people and doing whatever she wants because she enjoys it during their time.

    look at the freaking video and when she's in front of the projector you look very closely and closey and keep looking and watch the words that pops up. "Illuminati Princess"

    It's about her secret fantasy of being forced to eat cat poop like cereal, while her boyfriend beats her with a stick and makes her recite poetry in between bites.

    Considering every second song of hers is about sex it would be easily assumed that this song is about sex and domination and whatever but one of the comments up there nailed it on the head its about not giving too hoots about the criticism she recieves from the media and basically saying well this is me and if you dont like it you can kindly.....$%&* *^^!!!

    u guys always jump to conclusions. its not abut sex. its about the paparazzi. u wuld know that if you read the lyrics carefully. btw s&m stand for scandles and media. yaall dumbasses (no offence). lemme translate it for ya. "i may be bad but im perfectly good at it" u may think im a bad singer, but im actually gud at it. "sex in air, i dont care. i love the smell of it" i dot care what you think. i like myself just the way i am. "sticks and stones may brake my bones. but chains & wimps excite me" ur words wont hurt me. just make me stronger. in her music video,it shows paparrazzi. sex is a METAPHORE. duh!

    s&m means sadism & masochism which is like being addictive to sex, and to me in the song she kinda means to say that she doesn't care about what you say about her because shes still going to be her. And that she likes to have sex rough and people think shes bad at it but she really "good" at having sex and obviously she sexually active...................................... I'm lizzy and i gave you what it means

    this stuff's evil....not like your grandma bitchin about the devils music....like, pure evil shit, stuff that puts disgusting images in your mind and subliminaly destroys your consciousness, perception, awareness, and ability to rationalize such a perverse song as this.

    Peace and love to all,
    Spiritus_Satellite

    Let us think deep. S&M could mean 'Satan & Me'. This shows that Rihanna is submissive to the devil. She is excited and obsessed with her commitments with the devil.

    She is an Illuminati Princess. THank You.

    The song is about the devil.It is a contunuation of whats my name. When she says "nanana come on" she is telling the devil to hurry up and give her a name. Like when Beyoncé is called sasha fierce

    This interpretation has been marked as poor. view anyway
