good reasons to criticize or dislike taylor swift/her music:

Lol. Sorry,I had to laugh c;

what does "sl-ut shaming" even mean? o.O
ahahahha. :)

Bashing a girl for having a s*x life/wearing revealing clothing/being promiscuous. Essentially, anyway a person says or hints that a girl is a s|ut and is therefore not as good as a virgin.

oh true true. So would that be "You Belong With Me" that you're referring to then?

Yeah, as well as Fifteen ('Abigail gave everything she had to a boy', as if all a girl has to offer is her virginity and after that they have nothing of value; virgin = has worth, non-virgin = no worth) and Better Than Revenge ('She's an actress, but she's better known for the things that she does on the mattress')

BUT SARAH
BETTER THAN REVENGE
U KNOW WHO ITS ABOUT
WHY HATE ON IT GIRL
IT GOT US THRU THE HARD TIMEZ

I would agree with YBWM. But like, the line after that line in Fifteen is "who changed is mind". So I think the point is that she gave her virginity, (which is considered a big thing to most fifteen year olds) to a boy who just dumped her straight after? Ya know? Just my opinion. :)
And yes. I freaking love Better Than Revenge though ahahaha :)

I see your point though. (:

IM FVVCKING LAUGHING AT ALL OF U GETTING ON UR HIGH HORSES BECAUSE THE GIRL WHO MADE THIS IS MY BEST FRIEND IN REAL LIFE AND SHE HAS EVERY SINGLE ONE OF TAYLOR SWIFTS SONGS THAT EVER EXISTED ON HER IPOD AND SHE IS THE ONE WHO INTRODUCED ME TO HER IN EIGHTH GRADE AND JUST OH M YGOD IM SOBBIGN

Also, WHAT THE FXCK? YOU'RE ACTUALLY ON WITTY? IS THE WORLD ENDING?

i don't know how i got here send help

You don't ACTUALLY know her so don't judge her. We all make mistakes and she probably was really hurt about the whole HAYLOR thing. Just because she made one song that wasn't exactlty great doens't mean her other songs are. Taylor's an amazing person who makes mistakes like we do.

i really liked her songs only before red came out.
Red is terrible

You know you have to f cking stop criticizing famous people ok? I bet you have like.a million more reasons why people Should Hate YOU!!!! If you don't like her make a blog about it! Witty isn't about hate okay? So shut the f ck up

http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ltpo12fSWc1qkedbio1_500.gif

Cause you are a motherf cking b tch who posts disgusting stupid quotes :)

Okay, kid, I've tried to be nice to you, but you've p|ssed me off now.
My quotes are fxcking honest. While Taylor and Justin may be good people, they have both done, said and written problematic sh|t. If you have a problem with people saying straight-up truth, you need to get your immature a/ss off the internet until you grow the hell up. Famous people are alway going to be criticized, cause they're famous. Everything they do, wrong or right, is going to go public. You have no right to tell me what I can and cannot post. It's not as if I am calling them horrible names (unlike you have called me) or threatened them or people they care for in anyway. All I have done is pointed out things they have seriously screwed up on. If you think that's anywhere near the meanest thing they'd read on a daily basis, you really need to get out more. Neither of my quotes are hate. They are fxcking facts, stated unbiasedly and as non-nasty as possible.
If you don't like my quotes, Steve has created the ignore function to hide all of them for you. Go to the search bar, type in my user name, look down the right side of the search results and hit the button that says 'ignore' under my avatar.
tl;dr http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m2ymdbGxma1qj2cja.gif

Yeah well you know we shouldn't use the ignore button all quotes should be nice but I guess!!!

If we shouldn't use the ignore button, then why the he|| would steve had made it?
And no, not all quotes should be nice, because there's no need for quotes to be nice. I mean, sure, they shouldn't be attacking other users, but nice? Nope, no need.

I guess he made it to make sure no one was forced to read your "delighful" quotes :) and yes quotes should be nice not in a way were they say that everything is fine and there is nothing wrong but the way you write them and their theme should be nice you know like something people WANT to read!!!! :D

Well, seeing as this got 41 faves and the Justin one got 101, people must want to read them - and like them, too.

Haha I love you.

NONE I repeat NONE of her lyrics of about ANY of them. Get your facts straight.

I've been listening to her for years, god damn she's not a bad person and her songs aren't about that. And before you go showing me that stupid link. I already saw it.

Okay, I had a nice long response, but then chrome had a freak out and closed itself.
and I really cannot be fxcked typing it out again, so if you REALLY wanna know, do some freaking research ladies. Google is your friend.

Please, do inform me on her queerphobic lyrics...

Okay, so this was so uncalled for. She has what, one, song that could hardly even be called sl/t shaming. I mean seriously, she's acting justnlike any other girl in that song, if you're boyfriend broke up with you and went straight to another girl, you'd be mad too. Second, 'queerphobic lyrics' is the stupidest things i've ever freakin heard. @blackfires basically covered what i wanted to say on that, but seriously, she has a really close friendship with Ellen DeGeneris and you're calling her queerphobic? Ok when has she slammed other females who drink alcohol? She's said herself she sometimes drinks, but notlike alot. Oh and anti-feminist behaviour? What was it, one statement where she said "there's a special place in hell for women who talk about other women" or something like that? She was quoting someone, and also, the people that said that were being anti-feminist in the first place (even though they're supposedly feminists) and they really upset her. You need to stop. Taylor is a person too.

Yeah um that website is complete bu// and i mentioned everything they said in it, its all stupid lies and rumours.

how is it bull ???
taylor swift does problematic things, and theres really no way around that. you do not have to support everything she does. you can still like her voice/talent/etc without liking her as a person i mean its not that hard

*bullsh/t
I like taylor swift as a person, so tell me some problematic things about her that are acrually true.

there is photographic evidence how do you even deny those

Okay,
1. The lyrics aren't queerphobic. She was saying it, most likely, to offend her ex, i mean, seriously, gay can be used as an offense, not just in a queerphobic way though. Its nothing serious.
2. She's posing with a fan. Whoopdedoo, yeah um so i really dont agree with what the guy has on his shirt, but its not like its on Taylor's shirt. She's simply takinf a photo with a fan.
3. How is the third even a problem
4. Seriously the fourth is pathetic
5. Okay so, here we go again, 'sl/t shaming'. Please read my first paragraph. She's acting like any other girl, and seriously? Other singers say way worse.
6. This actually made me laugh. So youre saying she thinks her bestfriend is worth nothing because she's not a virg/n? Okay and 'everything she had' is basically another way of saying 'virgin/ty.' Its an old saying, taylor's not the first to say it.
7. Women need men to save them? She's written so many songs about how she can be strong without a man.
8. When does she play at being an outsider? If youre gonna say in the you belong with me video, well first that was years ago and also, in music videos, theres this thing called acting

1. When you use a term which applies to a group in an offensive manner you /are/ being offensive. Moreover, if you're not apart of the LGBQT community, you can't really say that it isn't queerphobic. It is serious because LGBQT people are constantly faced with systematic issues and still don't have rights.
2. Despite him being fan, he's still r4cist nonetheless, with her not even asking him to take off the shirt nor call him out on it is practically condoning the shirt.
3 & 4 combined: Very well stated here [http://swanblood.tumblr.com/post/16222547334/what-is-cultural-appropriation-and-how-to-avoid-it] so you can go educate yourself over at that link.
5. Just because other girls s/lut-shame doesn't make it right, and just because other singers do it, it isn't right either. That line is a poor defensive tactic.
6. http://www.wittyprofiles.com/q/6676550
7. Despite her writing many songs about her being strong without one, she still contributes to the gender role of women needing men to save them so not only does she contradict herself, she still perpetuates that myth
8. You just gave yourself one example, and I'm sure you can find yourself more, being the avid fan you seem to be.

You want me to go find some LGBQT people who aren't offended by her lyrics? Cause i can find plenty. And um so basically you expect her to be rude and be like 'Im not gonna pose with you because you have that on your shirt'?
You know what? Im sick of this. Taylor isn't perfect, but she hasnt done all of the stuff you're saying she has either. Im done with this.

A few people from the LGBQT community aren't the monolith for the LGBQT community as a whole. For you to think that is wrong. And, it's not being rude if you're calling out the r4cism/bigotry in the shirt.
Taylor isn't perfect but you can't deny all the problematic things she's done. As I've said plenty of times before, you can still appreciate her talent while keeping in mind that she's messed up.

Okay all the other people pretty much said it all. But just to repeat, I don't know of any of her lyrics which hate on drinking, considering she does too sometimes. Please enlighten me. phobic? That was one line. Everyone uses gay as an insult at least once in their lives. Now I am not at all saying that means it's okay, cause yes, I get ticked off when that word is used offensively as well. However, it was one little mistake, which she changed and fixed once realizing it was offensive. Have you never made a mistake before? Exactly. And the fact that she at least changed it says something. About the shirt, your fabulous little site even said that she said she didn't realize what was on his shirt. I'm near 100% positive that she does not support what the 's did. And no sane person would accuse her of that either. If you read the link attached to that picture, it clearly says that even the guy wearing the shirt said the symbol started out as an X, and Taylor clearly said she didn't even know the guy, as she had taken pictures with like 100 people that night. Sl//t shaming lyrics? Honey child, that is one song. There is nothing wrong in saying that a girl is better known for the things that she does on the mattress. If she does sleep around a lot, then yes she will be better known for that. It's just the truth, and it's not like she's saying non-virgins are all disgusting devils. The whole "she's not a saint" part doesn't have to be related to her being a sl//t either. None of us are saints, whether we are virgins or not. And how in "Fifteen" she says something about her best friend Abigail losing her virginity? As that site said, "everything she had" were the words used by Abigail herself. And again, virginity has been called your most prized possession since a longgg time ago. In "The Tempest," even Shakespeare called it "the jewel in [Miranda's] dower," or the most precious thing she had to give. Taylor also did not say anywhere that losing her virginity made her dirty or useless. Also, how the last point thing is about how she acts like the ugly outsider when she is beautiful, like excuse me, have you never heard of insecurity? I know TONS of people who are drop dead gorgeous but just don't see it because they truly don't believe in themselves enough to think anything good. Yes, now she probably believes in herself more and knows she is at least decent looking, but I'm sure "You Belong With Me," or whatever song that was in ref too was written when she wasn't so confident. The Japanese and corn row things? There really is nothing wrong with that. The corn rows? Honey she was just a young girl, and not that there is anything wrong with that, but even if there was, why should that matter now? And the whole Madonna dichotomy? No where in that song does she say that the popular girl is not a virgin. Maybe you assumed that, but who knows? Taylor was not saying that all girls who wear high heels and cheer are sl//ts or don't deserve the guy or anything like that. It could have just been in ref to the particular experience she had with that one girl. And music videos have something called um acting. The point of music and song writing is to express yourself. If she has to sit there rereading and editing her lyrics to make sure there is nothing to be assumed or misunderstood and would please everyone (impossible anyway), they would be pretty stupid. It's how she feels, and not necessarily generalized to all people that fit the descriptions in her lyrics. So love, get your facts straight. And of course Taylor isn't perfect. So what? None of us are. She has made mistakes, but the ones you and that website have mentioned are pretty invalid and pathetic, besides the gay one, which again, she fixed. So please chill out sweety. She is much better in comparison to other modern artists.

Your points are wrong on so many levels and that's why you don't even deserve a proper reply

a.k.a you have realize you are wrong so have nothing left to say. (:
If I'm wrong, enlighten me love. (:

Why do I have to reply to your comments when you restated everything city lights said and I already replied to your comments I mean obviously you have a major literacy problem if you can't take time to read what's already been stated

*restated everything city lights said and I already replied to /her/ comments

Um yeah and you obviously have a problem realizing you are wrong honey child. I did read what you replied, and I only said what I did again because your replies were invalid and stupid.

I'm not the one calling other people "honey child" as if I were a pretentious tween. If you could read, then you wouldn't have wasted your time writing such a long comment about Taylor swift

Um excuse me? That's the way I talk, and has nothing to do with my age. I tend to call everyone honey, sweety, love etc, so chill. And I can read, which is why I bothered to correct your stupid invalid points against an artist who literally saved me. (:

You still talk pretentious, despite it being a mannerism or not. Not to mention you can still like her music without liking her as a person. My points are not invalid as photographic evidence was provided. Yeah, she saved you, but she's still a sl/ut-shaming, at times queerphobic, artist and there's no way around that.

Lol. Her personality is extremely inspirational to me, thank you. And she isn't phobic! Jeez. And your photographic evidence is kinda stupid lol.

Her personality is extremely misogynistic and if you find that inspiring, then more power to you. And you aren't one to decide if her behavior is any type of phobic if you're not apart of a marginalized group. Moreover, you're "stupid" is subjective.

Ok, how the hell are her lyrics queerphobic? Ok i know in one of the verses in Picture to Burn she says " So go and tell your friends That I’m obsessive and crazy That’s fine, I’ll tell mine You’re g@y" that doesnt mean shes queerphobic. We all know that one girl at school who is always spreading the fakest most dumb@ss rumors and basically thats what shes trying to say / be to get some revenge on her ex. Now im sorry if i sounded like a b/tch in this comment ....but like ....we all have to rant sometimes....

http://yourfaveisproblematic.tumblr.com/post/45761093757/taylor-swift

Shes not homophobic, but she knows other people are, and thats why she selected those words. I cannot dumb this down any further.

#preach

I haven't listened to lots of Taylor Swift's songs, so I want to know in which of her lyrics does she shame women who drink alcohol? I agree with everything else, just don't know about that one...
