my mother is so judgemental but in that very casual misogynistic way where she'll be like wow don't those women look crazy and its just some random women chatting w each other casually minding their own business and im always like what about them makes you say that 😐?? and she'll be like nothing they just seem like it. like oh okay. sure.

i think more people should give women a tragic backstory and a dead husband fridged for the sake of her character growth. this is why i am really into the way they handled nate in leverage redemption btw

one of the most fascinating ( ie concerning) parts of the fandom is the way many People feel so connected to Taylor but they also need to see themselves in her. To a point of extreme projection; needing her to have a husband and kids. or being upset at the very idea she might want that. Or claiming she’s actually gay and in a secret marriage. Or dissecting her behaviors and diagnosing her with things she’s never disclosed.

I’m not sure it’s a product of being brought up online or smth else. Idk how it is in other fandoms, but I definitely think Swiftes feel a very strong sense of ownership over Taylor that is very unusual

Controversial opinion I think she over corrected from doing to much with Joe to actively not choosing her relationship at times. Like when she will only ever spend two days in KC but would follow Joe and still work. You can see where she put more into then she does now. I know we aren’t supposed to think that but there it is

I disagree. She’s spending A LOT of time with Travis whenever she can and vice versa. The problem wasn’t her moving work to where Joe was, the problem was that he wouldn’t put in the same effort.

here’s my tashi hot take number one brought to you by one watch and the strong want to rewatch and also the people i watched the movie with hating on her the entire time and no one else. so, before i say anything, would tashi brutally murder both the boys with her bare hands for a chance to play tennis again? yes. is tennis the absolute most important thing in her life? yes. is tashi a good person? no. not at all. is tashi living through art’s tennis and hence wants him to do more and more and is she a master manipulator? without doubt, but this all being said i simply think it would be absolutely bullshit to say taishi doesn’t care about the boys at all beyond their success ( because their success is her success but that’s a whole other ramble ). is it love? yes and no, at least not in the typical sense ( but i do think it’s the closest tashi really can get to love but again thats a whole other ramble ! ) bow this care is in particular is centered around their tennis playing but it, like her character, is complex and there are other layers to it.

it’s not a healthy care or love and there’s so much anger and hatred there for various things ( which can be a whole other ramble, a sentence i hope you get used to reading ) but i would like to point out first and foremost but i would like to point out how absolutely angry she is after art first started his manipulation to get with her, how pissed she was when patrick didn’t show to the game and in general, that fight, and, again, that whispered line after telling art she’d leave him if he didn’t win ( “is that what you need to hear?” —) and her face?! she simply hated saying it and i think it was a bit of an extreme and she knew it, but she also knew if that game had went any different than it had; then yes, things would have changed but it would not change her own feelings which are there and OBVIOUS in her face but can so easily be dismissed by looking at her words and actions .

and beyond that, tashi didn’t HAVE to marry art, they didn’t HAVE to have a kid together. tashi didn’t have to date patrick after giving him her number ( for a Decent amount of time too? )

tldr- and i hope they hope this makes Sense , tennis is her soulmate, her true love, the boys ( yes, both of them, because again my watch group was like wow she only loves pat, and i again say, No ) do come in second but she does care and want nothing but the best for them ( she’s taking care of her little white boys 👏👏👏 and she also is taking care of herself 👏 because she has to- she’s had to and she struggles to even let the Boys take care of her and doesn’t know what to do with that but that’s a whole other ramble ;) ) tashi may be a user, a manipulator, a cheater but she is not emotionless. she cares about a few selective things, and the boys are two of them and a high two on that list. she struggles and won’t let herself acknowledge more than that.

anyhow will you get tashi’s start in tennis next and all the manipulation she had to do to get to the top and how it’s manifested into her problematic traits, on tashi being a better mom than i gave her credit for ( not a stellar one, far from it but oh could i talk about tashi and motherhood ) or will you get a dissection of her feelings on both the boys as years roll by individually and together next 😘
