[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I guess what I'm wondering is why people are acting like it's NOT misogynistic and hurtful to call women bitches? Just because it's common place in rap songs doesn't mean it's right or defensible. That's the part I'm not getting.

Of course. But you know how people loooove to build a celebrity up only to tear them down eventually. This pile on has almost nothing to do with the facts of the actual situation; it's just a convenient opportunity to hate on her. Taylor was the awkward teen everyone loved and related to who suddenly became super famous with hot boyfriends and beautiful friends and her former fans hate her for it. People look at her life (like her #Taymerica party and her new relationship with a celebrated actor) and are jealous so now they will rip her up over any stupid thing. It's pathetic and gross.[/quote]

I think this is true too but I also think Taylor should have expected something like this and toned her act down a bit. Her paling around with famous models etc. was a bit over the top. She herself used to hate on the popular cheerleader types (see "You Belong with Me" "Better at Revenge" etc. etc.) so when she in effect became the ultimate prom queen, she ought to have realized this animosity toward her would build and eventually pop. It puzzles me somewhat that she didn't expect something like this to happen.[/quote]

Hmm, she's done what it's taken to cross over from country to pop.  She's adjusted her image as she's matured - and it has brought her enormous success.  She's gone from being the gawky, wide eyed kid next door to being the strong, beautiful, in charge woman that we see today.

I do think it's time for her to tone it down a notch or two.  It seems like she's taking a break now which is overdue for her.  She needs to chill, regroup and refocus on her work and stop the drama.[/quote]
