Before folklore came out, I would tell people that liking Taylor Swift was the straightest thing about me. Then folklore, evermore, and Red TV came out. As I saw the queer themes in those albums, I began seeing them in reputation, 1989, Speak Now, Fearless, and debut. The themes have always been there, fluctuating in subtlety but steadily increasing since 1989. So why did I think of Taylor Swift as so quintessentially straight? You guessed it: Compulsory heterosexuality and heteronormativity.

Taylor was supposed to be universally relatable. When she explained her songs, she refrained from using gender-specific language. Us. We. That person. Someone. And people that as “Me. I. A man. That guy I told everyone I was dating.” We were told she dated men, and a woman dating a man = heterosexual. No other options.

Even now, Genius will remove lyric annotations that imply her lyrics might not be about a man. Even with Hits Different, Question…? and Maroon. Taylor says reputation is about Joe and swifties believe her bc “Taylor wouldn’t lie to us!!!” even though there’s so many inconsistencies with the narrative that Rep is about Joe.

To say outright or even imply that Taylor might write songs about women because she likes women is met with scores of comments about how we “shouldn’t speculate on her sexuality!!! she said she’s straight!!! stop being disrespectful!!!!” But Taylor, as she has never said the words “I’m gay” has never said the words “I’m straight.” What she has done is align herself with. LGBTQ artists (YNTCD music video, Phoebe feat., posting support for queer musicians on social media, and, of course, the Pride parade that is her list of openers for the Eras Tour).

If Taylor didn’t people thinking she’s queer, she would’ve thrown in “as a straight woman…” in her speech before performing Delicate at multiple Pride events, when being interviewed about her advocacy during the Lover era, or at literally any point in her adult life.

Writing about women from the male perspective is queer. Her dressing in drag for the Man music video and showing herself in bed with a woman is inherently queer. The way she writes songs about her love interests’ girlfriends is queer. People bend over backwards to justify the gay shit she does, the same thing people have done for centuries with Sappho, Emily Dickinson, Louisa May Alcott, and so many sapphic artists throughout history. Taylor Swift is THE songwriter of our generation. She IS the music industry. But swifties, and hetlors all the more, would rather believe she is stupid and ignorant rather than intentionally using phrases like “hairpin drop,” “lavender haze,” “all the bricks they threw at me,” “you’re the West Village.” When she describes her muses as having scarlet lips, having hair that falls into place like dominos and braids in a pattern, gorgeous, it’s just because she thinks men are really pretty I guess (insert MetGala 2016 Joe photo). When she describes men as toys, playthings, “dudes who give nothing,” she’s being satirical. When she says “weird rumors,” that can’t possibly refer to rumors about marriage, pregnancy, or her having had multiple children during the pandemic. It’s *weird* to say that Taylor is queer. It’s weird and bad and gross. Why? Because people saying this believe being queer is weird, bad, and gross.

But it’s not weird. Being queer is beautiful, a gift. And that gift comes with a world that hates who we are. Of course Taylor is too soft for all it. And I admire her softness, that she continues to write vulnerable music. Midnights (esp 3am Edition and Hits Different) holds her loudest lyrics. She’s never beating the rumors and she doesn’t want to. Even if she never says the words “I’m gay/bi/pan/a lesbian,” the eardrum-shattering volume of her lyrics is more than enough for me.

Whenever people say they don’t like Question…? I’m convinced we weren’t listening to the same song. Half.moon.eyes.bad.surprise. Did you.re.a.lize. out of time? She was on your miiIIINNND with some *dick*head*guUUUUY? That you saw that niiIIIGGGHT. But you were on SOMETHING? It was one drink! after! another!!! Fuckin. POLITICS and gender roles!! And you're not sure and I DON’T KNOW?!! Like excuse me what

#words of mine #taylor swift #question…?

[karlie-what-you-want]

I AM ONCE AGAIN ASKING. WHY DOES EVERYONE BLINDLY HATE QUESTION…? FOR NOT MAKING SENSE INSTEAD OF QUESTIONING WHAT EVENT IN TAYLORS LIFE COULD HAVE PROMPTED SUCH A SPECIFICALLY WORDED SONG

I SWEAR TO GOD 50% OF MY POSTS ARE JUST TO BITCH ABOUT THIS

Everyone needs to stop dissing my favorite Midnights track. This song is precious to me and its meaning is SO obvious in the context of Kaylor. It’s basically Kaylor evidence. More clearly than any other song.

I GIVE UP ON SWIFTIES.

[andichoseyou]

We lie awake in love and in fear, in turmoil and in tears. We stare at walls and drink until they speak back. We twist in our self-made cages and pray that we aren't—right this minute—about to make some fateful life-altering mistake. This is a collection of music written in the middle of the night, a journey through terrors and sweet dreams.

Every time they find any links to haylor they claim the song

It’s madness that rather than the references to 1989 and even Red mean maybe it’s not about Matty Healy - but rather those albums were about him! Who she met after he wore the damn merch of the album about Harry!

Also there’s an actual photo and video of them dancing with no shoes in NY. For any other relationship the most tenuous of photos is considered bullet proof evidence but never Haylor.
