Saving This So I Can Read It Without The Worry Of Losing It

Once againg... Bf Taylor 😌🔥

At this point everything she does is boyfriend material really

But if we say something we are called “delusional” and they think we are speculating on her sexuality… we just have eyes 👀 and we are not easily fooled by the media

i just wanna talk about how..interesting it would be if a straight woman said her top spotify artist was girl in red. if a straight woman gifted her paintings with [marie’s] lyrics on it. if a straight woman posted a screenshot of her listening to girl in red telling everyone to do the same at a time when girl in red was a great way to say “hey i like girls”.

Very proud 💚

I think my favorite part of being a Gaylor is we aren’t people-pleasing fiends. We are art appreciators. We are soul lovers. We are open minded creatives who love a queer little mystery. We’re fellow poets, not rabid spectators. We hold her accountable when it comes to politics and we hold her hand when we notice that she might need our support. Sure, we love a gay meet-cute and we have our own opinions about the muses, but we don’t really care what lips she’s calling home as much as we care about the poetry in her beautiful mind. It’s her art that matters most to us because she is telling OUR story and she is using OUR history to do it. To us, she’s not just singing about falling in love with some bad boy. To us, she’s singing about her life literally being in danger and her career being compromised if she ever exposes her truest self. We feel that because we’ve been there. It’s a pain so bone deep it never stops aching.

So all that to say: I am proud to be a girl kisser and I am proud to be part of this community, instead of trapped in a fucking one brain-celled cult. And Taylor, if you’re in here, just know that no matter what happens we see you and we are proud of you. You’re out to us and that’s all that matters (but boy it would be nice if you’d crush the dreams of these homophobes lol).

ANYWAY…Reblog if you’re proud to be a Gaylor 🏳️‍🌈🫶☀️✨🐇💕🌈

she said

I loved you in secret / first sight, yeah we love without reason

I don’t want you like a best friend

I said no one has to know what we do

baby, I know places we won’t be found

cause all the boys in their expensive cars with their range rovers and their janguars never took me quite where you do

lightening strikes every time she moves / and everybody’s watching her, but she’s looking at you

I want you for worse or for better, I would wait for ever and ever / broke your heart, I’ll put it back together / I would wait forever and ever / and that’s how it works, that’s how you get the girl

I said ‘I heard that you’ve been out and about with some other girl....I’ve been there too, a few times’

and I broke down crying, was she worth this mess? after everything and that little black dress

I loved you in spite of deep fears that the world would divide us

when you’re young, you just run, but you come to what you need

pauses, then says ‘you’re my best friend’

and I never saw you coming, and I’ll never be the same

our secret moments in your crowded room / they’ve got no idea about me and you

you’re so cool, it makes me hate you so much

this slope is treacherous, this path is reckless... and I like it / I can’t decide if it’s a choice, getting swept away

you’re so gorgeous I can’t say anything to your face / cause look at your face

and you can want who you want, boys and boys and girls and girls

I fell in love with a careless man’s careful daughter, she is the best thing that’s ever been mine

I can’t help it if you look like an angel, can’t help it if I want to kiss you in the rain

I know your favorite songs and you tell me bout your dreams / think I know where you belong, I think I know it’s with me

marry me juliet, you’ll never have to be alone, I love you and that’s all I really know

when we’re on the phone and you talk real slow cause it’s late and your mama don’t know

he’s charming and endearing and I’m comfortable / but I miss screaming and fighting and kissing in the rain, it’s 2 am and I cursing your name / you’re so in love that you act insane / and that’s the way I loved you....it’s a rollercoaster kind of rush / and I never knew I could feel that much, and that’s the way I loved you

wear you like a necklace

we might just get away with it / religion’s in your lips / even if it’s a false god we’d still worship / we might just get away with it / the altar is my hips

my hands shake / I’m not usually this way, but you pull me in and I’m a little more brave

don’t you worry your pretty little mind, people throw rocks at things that shine and life makes love look hard / the stakes are high, the water’s rough, but this love is ours

the first date, man I didn’t kiss her when I should have

all these nights we’re spending up on the roof with a schoolgirl crush

what’s it like to brag about raking in dollars and getting bitches and models?

sometimes when I look into your eyes I pretend you’re mine all the damn time

that she never loved me, or her, or anyone, or anything

I hate accidents except when we went from friends to this

we show off our different scarlet letters / trust me, mine is better

something happens when everybody finds out

I would fall from grace just to touch your face

something gave you the nerve the touch my hand / it’s nice to have a friend

carve your name into my bed post cause I don’t want you like a best friend

darling you had turned my bed into a scared oasis / people started talking, putting us through our paces

there’s always someone who disapproves / they’ll judge it like they know about me and you

I could’ve spent forever with your hands in my pockets / picture of your face in an invisible locket

karlie would you want to?

we’re a crooked love in a straight line down / makes you want to run and hide but it made us turn right back around

everyone thinks that they know us, but they know nothing about all of the silence and patience, pining and desperately waiting / my hands are shaking from holding back from you

I cut off my nose just to spite my face / and I hate my reflection for years and years

too in love to think straight / all alone or so it seemed

this love is difficult, but it’s real

I want her midnights

and people still think that she’s straight?

so, can we all agree that

shade never made anybody less gay

and

you gotta step into the daylight and let it go

Night Star Cat, Cat-O-Lanterns, and Ghost Cats.

Now I would never say that I would like them together cause it wouldn’t be a lie… also Tay likes them blonde,just saying 😅

“has anyone seen my wife?” never have to look far, taylor takes good care of her 😂

Still shocked that this was a Disney tv series 🥹😉

"Rights are being stripped from basically everyone who isn't a straight white cisgender male," she tells Vogue, when asked about why she chose to, all of a sudden, stand up for LGBTQ+ rights. "I didn't realize until recently that I could advocate for a community that I'm not a part of."

I was waiting for this to come through my inbox lol. (There was more then one ask about this but I'm only responding to the first.)

There's lots to unpack here but the first and foremost thing is: She doesn't actually say here, "I'm straight." It was a perfect opportunity. It was the ideal conversation. She punted. Why?

Why did she instead give this vague, circuitous, carefully couched answer?

She calls out communities encompassing sexuality, race, and gender, followed by saying, "a community that I'm not a part of." There are lots of communities that she could have been referring to, but she crafted the sentence in such a way that makes it unclear which one. She could have been talking about the trans community. She could have been talking about the poc community. She could have been talking about the ace community. She could have been talking about the gay male community. There are lots of possibilities. In this carefully worded sentence, she deliberately avoided naming the specific community she's talking about.

Another thing to consider is that many, many closeted people don't consider themselves part of the queer community. They don't feel like they belong because they're not out and proud. And even once people come out, it often still takes time before they feel like they're part of the queer community. That was certainly my personal experience. Cara Delevingne said something similar in her Hulu show when discussing her own coming out.

Let's move on. The link anon provided isn't the source. It's an article quoting the source. The actual source is the 2019 Vogue cover article. And the full article is important because there are lots of interesting things that give context to this quote.

First, there's a great deal of conversation about gay stuff and lgbtq+ rights. And the writer makes a point of saying about this subject matter that Taylor seems to enjoy that part of the conversation "as much as she’d enjoy a root canal." Wouldn't a straight ally be eager to discuss this? They would. And a closeted queer person would be uncomfortable and panicking at the thought of having to talk so blatantly about this subject. The writer also makes a point of saying that once the conversation changes to music, Taylor lights up and her demeanor and speech patterns relax dramatically.

The other important context that the Vogue article discusses is Taylor's very long history of supporting lgbtq+ rights. Everything from the Mean mv of a gay boy being bullied to the "boys and boys and girls and girls" line in WTNY to donations to lgbtq+ organizations to giving out queer awards to queer people to dedicating Dress to Loie Fuller, an openly gay artist. There are plenty of other examples of Taylor advocating for the queer community that aren't mentioned. All the way back in 2008 she participated in the LOGO queer anti-bullying PSA. In 2009 she was in Seventeen magazine taking a stand against the slaying of a teenager for being gay.

Why is this important? Because it proves that Taylor is lying in the quote in question. "I didn't realize until recently that I could advocate…" girl yes you did. You've been advocating for years and years at this point. She's lying. She's lying. She's covering herself up. She's hiding in the closet and hoping desperately that no one notices.

And this isn't the first time she's done this either. During the 1989 press tour she gave an interview where she was asked about the "And you can want who you want / Boys and boys and girls and girls" line. As the interviewer is starting to speak about this, a look of pure panic immediately takes over Taylor's face:

And then she starts stumbling around trying to give a coherent answer. At one point she stutters out, "And also I wrote this song, um, I wrote this song, kind of, kind of following, the, uh, when gay marriage became legal in New York." This interview was in October 2014. Gay marriage had been legal in New York since June 2011. Sooo three years later is "kind of following." Right. Sure, Taylor. Nice closeting. You really nailed it.

Okay let's review. She doesn't actually say she's straight even though this was a perfect opportunity to do so. She doesn't name the actual community she's talking about, giving herself cover if she ever comes out. She's closeted and probably doesn't think she's part of the queer community anyways. She full-on lies about not knowing she can advocate for others. And the writer states Taylor seems deeply uncomfortable talking about lgbtq+ things even though the context of the article was that blondie wanted to make it clear how much of an ally she is.

None of this remotely adds up to hetero. And none of this comes even close to Taylor saying that she's straight.

Love this hahah
