anyway if you feel bad about the palestinians undergoing a genocide who will inevitably get blamed for being in a situation that "cost kamala the election" as if they’re the ones wielding power over her and not vice versa, consider donating to my gazan friend, who is vetted as #4 here. donations of €10 or more are eligible for a commission, DM me.

at some point we’ve got to address the fandom’s need to claim that taylor’s current boyfriend “saved” her. it happens with every boyfriend and it undermines the work she herself has done to heal. there doesn’t need to be a man in the equation for women to grow and move past painful things. this is like baby’s first sexism

The people who are being overly pressed about this are probably the same people who are flabbergasted over guilty as sin lol. My immediate reaction was good for you girl and also duh kind of obvious.

yeah like, I don't actually want to get into discourse over this on my blog so this will probably be the last of it because it's such a nothingburger and obviously just there to drive clicks.

But there's a reason why So High School is on the album, and it's there as a foil for Guilty As Sin? and Smallest Man and The Manuscript, about many things but for the purposes of this discussion specifically about sex.

The purpose of Guilty As Sin? isn't to shock people that Taylor Swift (or any woman really) engages in self-pleasure. It's that she's left to do that because her partner has neglected her in just about every facet of their relationship, including sexually. (Not that one needs a reason to engage in it, just to be clear. You do you y'all.) She's left so despondent over the lack of intimacy in all aspects that she caves to this fantasy that's sparked by someone whose intents are deceitful, because it's all she's got left-- and is the only way for her to feel anything.

The Smallest Man also details how sex coming from this place left her feeling empty and used and manipulated and needless to say, completely unsatisfied. (And other things, but flying too close to the sun.) And The Manuscript is the origin of all this shame around sex, how her early adult experiences in it warped her sense of self and of relationships and love and everything.

So then you have So High School where everything feels brand new in every way: she's giddy like a teenager (without a traumatizing history) because for once there aren't any games being played, she's not being toyed with or kept in the wings or discarded when inconvenient. Her needs are being met, and that act is exciting! It's a turn-on! They can have sex whenever and wherever they want because it is a place of safety and connection and exploration and joy! Possibly in a way she's never felt in her life! Is it any wonder that her third eye opened and over the last year she's been feeling herself in ALL the ways?!

(Not to say having sex means you automatically want to show off! But for HER her confidence in herself and her body has skyrocketed and as many around here have said, when someone keeps telling you you're the hottest thing on the planet AND THEN SHOWS YOU THEY MEAN IT, that can unlock a lot of things in your brain.)

Sorry didn't mean for this to turn into a soapbox lol. But in summation:

[tookoutallherteeth]

“era” was just named one of the words of the year by collins dictionary because of the unprecedented impact of the eras tour — and they even gave it a new definition: “a period of one’s life or career that is of a distinctive character.” taylor’s impact is insane.

someone who spent their entire life refusing to give taylor a chance every time they’ve been shown her music: WHY DIDNT ANYONE TELL ME SHE WAS GOOD

TAYLOR SWIFT | "Enchanted" The Eras Tour, Miami Night 3

[tookoutallherteeth]

come on, come on, don't leave me like this -> I just don't understand how you don't miss me -> I thought I had you figured out -> do you hate me? -> something's made your eyes go cold -> were you making fun of me with some esoteric joke? -> something keeps me holding on to nothing -> you said I needed a brave man then proceeded to play him until I believed it too -> and I still can't believe it -> can't turn back now, I'm haunted -> and I still mean it...old habits die screaming

[tookoutallherteeth]

‘i may never open up the way i did for you’ is one of taylor’s most devastating lyrics actually

[tookoutallherteeth]

Kinda wild to think about how during the 1989 and rep tours there was so much effort by ~the higher ups~ into shutting DOWN live streams on periscope and fb/ig, and now with eras, not only is “shutting down lives” not a thing but Taylor and TN recognize, celebrate and thank everyone who follows along online!
