Taylor Swift is awful (and her music isn't even very good)

You are not alone! The more I see her, the uglier she gets to me. It’s getting to the point where I feel nauseous looking at her, inadvertently of course, when I’m just trying to read up on current events. I really hate her beady eyes and the way she always opens her mouth wide. She looks like a hyena about to pounce. (I hate the god awful red lipstick she wears, too.)

And that’s not even taking into account her terrible, bland music. YUCK!

Wow. you're quite unhinged. I'm not even a fan of her music but you are not well if you let some celebrity make you this bitter.

It’s not just her. It’s that the general quality of life has gone down, and even the entertainment is much worse than it was a generation ago. How can you compare Bruce to Taylor, like PP did?

I feel like her massive stardom despite looks or talent is just another symptom of the crumbling of society. That’s what’s bothering me.

I'm confused, you're saying that she doesn't have looks or talent?? I don't really love her music, but she's objectively very attractive: tall, blonde, long hair, thin but with softness, with this kind of sexy feline smolder thing with the seductive parted lips, perfect skin, and now busty for her frame. And I don't know how you could say someone who is such a prolific storyteller and songwriter isn't talented in some way.

I think her face is ugly.

She is extremely generous in every city she plays - often donating to kitchens that are then able to feed people for a year. I don’t love all of her music and I don’t care about who she is friends with. She has a strong business sense and is a generous human. I like what I know about her!

You’re the one who is nuts. Writing a few nasty comments about a public figure in a thread that’s supposed to be about how bad and overrated that celebrity is doesn’t qualify as stalker territory.

But you know what’s creepy? Being unable to let people who don’t like Taylor Swift discuss how overrated she is without having to step in and tell them they’re crazy, “unhinged stalkers.”

Hey, all you Swifties, go and start your own thread about how much you love her and how great she is.

Let us “haters” have are our space! It’s mind boggling that you’re all so obsessed that can’t tolerate the existence of a thread against her.

That’s cute. Shall we go find all these threads where Swifties are free to praise her without the haters popping in? Not one hater. Because they’re so respectful of those other threads. I’ll wait.

The way you express ideas in this post is a perfect example the mean girl problem of Swifties. You are not just disagreeing, you are being disrespectful. ‘that’s cute.” “I’ll wait.” “Shall we” Are just mean girl tactics meant to put down and gain power by infantilize the person you are arguing with. Why not make your point without using these tactics? Frankly, it brings down the discourse of women to say things like this especially when you claim Taylor is an example to girls and people “need to calm down.” On the internet.

Some quotes from this thread about Taylor: She’s ugly, her eggs are drying up, looks like a hyena, a symptom of crumbling society, disgusting, puts on a sleazy strip show, trash. Who’s being the mean girls here? I’m happy to hear how those comments contribute to a healthy discourse of women.

How tragic that this worldwide star has such a detrimental effect on your fragile mental health.

How tragic that you adore a person who doesn’t know you’re alive. (You: “She peeked into my soul! It’s like her lyrics are about me!”)

Your obsession is so great that you can’t process the fact that MANY, MANY others don’t share your fanaticism. In fact, you need to resort to insults to unseen strangers who dare not LOVE “your girl, Taylor.”

Who here has the mental health problem?

Oh, honey. I’m 65 years old. I’m all about Bruce Springsteen.

Your fraught post is just so hilarious that it deserves to be called out.

NP. A 65 year old fangirling over Taylor Swift? Now that’s just pathetic.

Reading comprehension isn’t your strong point, is it?

Don’t even pretend you’re not. Anyone that old who bothers to insult strangers in defense of a celebrity is obviously a rabid fan. On top of it all, you’re pretending to be above it all. Again, pathetic. You would think the elderly would have more dignity.

I think she is a total badass- and I’m glad my daughters are into her.

53 year old woman

I’m glad I don’t have daughters who are into her because she seems petty and a mean girl masking as someone who has “big emotions” and is a “nerd.”
The thing is she and her fans only allow people to have “big emotions” if they agree with Taylor swift. If you don’t, the swifties go after reporters and posters and ridicule to no end. Just like Taylor in her songs about her exes. And just like Taylor revenge invited her high school class to the awards ceremony. She is mean. End stop.

The rule of free speech and big emotions have to apply to opinions you agree with and those you don’t or it is only censorship. And so Taylor and her fandom are a role model for no young people in this day and agez

She is a tremendous business person who is a bright spot among a lot of doom and gloom. I’m fine with it. Better than when I was super into Van Halen.

NP I don’t know that I think she’s ugly but I don’t find her very attractive. Part of it is her makeup and recent hair style.

She needs to write at least one really good iconic song that has such good melody and pace that almost everybody knows it. Like Dollys “I will always love you” or Deloris O’Riordens “Linger”,Blondies “Rapture” or Belinda Carlisle’s “Heaven is a place on Earth”

She has a lot of good songs but no really great iconic song with a really smart melody.

She might be too old to write one. Most musical artists greatest works usually wrap up around 30 or younger.

I loved Taylor during her debut album. The country and glitzy era. I thought she was gorgeous then but that's not obviously who she is. She's quirky and loves tumblr, I don't mind her lol.

I do think she's extremely manipulative and media savvy but i don't think thats a bad thing. The pap pics are getting to be a bit much though. Hopefully she will have some downtime again after the tour ends

None of those comments were in the post you were responding to.
I would argue that saying her eggs are drying up is probably true as I myself had a geriatric pregnancy at 36. She is pretty close to that and if she wants kids it is a reality she will have to deal with. Also it is a point of conversation that she is a symbol of over capitalism. So yes in some ways those can further discussion among women. People can think about freezing their own eggs and the fair trade/environmental impact of all those jet rides, plastic bracelets and memorabilia Taylor’s summer tour generated.

As far as the ugly comments they are plain old
mean. They do not however attack someone who is posting on this board or attack someone for expressing an opinion. The swifties mean girl
Comments are designed to stop negative discourse about her and shame (not a huge celebrity that will never see the comments) but each individual reporter and poster who gives Taylor negative press. That is a bigger issue because she has her own little censorship police.

She is talented, powerful, and a great business person. She is a great role model for young women and I am glad my daughter can look up to someone like her. Her music is fine.
