Lesbian Culture Is You’re So Gorgeous, I Can’t Say Anything To Your Face

loving how karlie casually confirmed that the initials on the pavement in soho were in fact written for her —a rep era kaylor fan theory— in the same breath that she says that her husband carved them in there, when we have literal multiple timestamped photos that show how her initials had a TS next to them years before half the pavement was ripped up and he added the J!and nobody’s batting a fucking eye!!

Does someone know form where is this and how is she kissing ?

👀

I loved these rings on the third finger of your right hand, girls.

Congratulations! 😉💍

“You’re my, my, my, my… Lover”.

Hiii can you do the pronouns percentage with lover and folklore in? I've just seen the one with rep included but FOLKLORE IS SO GAY. Also you're doing gods work thank you so much 💕

Hi! I’ve updated the charts to include Folklore - there is actually already a post which includes the pronouns from Lover (here) if you’re interested to see what has and hasn’t changed.

As always, the songs not included in these charts are those from Taylor’s unreleased catalogue; those for which Taylor is credited as co-writer, but which were released by another artist (e.g. Kellie Pickler’s ‘Best Days of Your Life’); and her OSTs (Eyes Open, Safe and Sound, Sweeter Than Fiction, I Don’t Wanna Live Forever and Beautiful Ghosts).

The charts are organised as follows below.

Songs with unqualified “male” (pro)nouns — “he” functions as Taylor’s primary romantic interest:

Tim McGraw

Teardrops on My Guitar

Stay Beautiful

I'd Lie

Fifteen

Hey Stephen

Forever & Always

I’m Only Me When I’m With You – “Just a small-town boy and girl”

Today Was a Fairy-tale – ‘You were the prince/ I used to be a damsel in distress’

Dear John

Better Than Revenge

Superman

Red

I Knew You Were Trouble

The Moment I Knew

Girl at Home

Blank Space — “You're the King, baby, I'm your Queen”

Style

Shake It Off

Wildest Dreams

You Are in Love

…Ready for It

I Did Something Bad

King of my heart – “King of my heart, body and soul”

Call It What You Want

Better Man — “I wish you were a better man”

Cruel Summer – “He looks up grinning like a devil”

Lover – “I take this magnetic force of a man to be my lover”

I Think He Knows

Paper Rings – “Wrap your arms around me, baby boy”

London Boy

Songs with qualified “male” pronouns:

Tied Together with a Smile — not autobiographical.

Our Song — uses reversed perspective.

Love Story — uses reversed perspective.

The Way I Loved You – constructs an opposition between ‘he’ and the gender non-specific ‘you,’ who is the true romantic interest.

Haunted — constructs an opposition between ‘he’ and the gender non-specific ‘you,’ who is the true romantic interest.

Speak Now — uses reversed perspective.

Starlight — not autobiographical.

Begin Again — constructs an opposition between ‘he’ and the gender non-specific ‘you,’ who is the true romantic interest.

New Romantics — it is (arguably) unclear whether the single male pronoun refers to a romantic interest of Taylor’s own (or of her fellow new romantics).

Don’t Blame Me — Taylor’s primary romantic interest is the gender non-specific ‘you,’ however note: ‘I’ve been breakin' hearts a long time, and/toyin’ with them older guys.’

Gorgeous — constructs an opposition between ‘he’/ ‘a boyfriend’ and the gender non-specific ‘you,’ who is the true romantic interest.

Getaway Car —constructs an opposition between ‘he’ and the gender non-specific ‘you,’ who is the true romantic interest.

Miss Americana and the Heartbreak Prince – it is not only arguable that the ‘heartbreak prince’ is independently a gender-neutral epithet (as claimed by Halsey) but also that “me” and “the heartbreak prince” is the proper syntactic pair (“it’s you and me…Miss Americana and the Heartbreak Prince”)

Songs with “female” (pro)nouns:

 A Place in This World — ‘girl’ is self-referential. The song’s subject is not romantic in nature.

Should've Said No — ‘her’ refers to the third party in Taylor’s relationship with a romantic interest whose gender is non-specific (you).

Mary's Song (Oh My My My)

Invisible — ‘she’ refers to Taylor’s rival for the affection of a romantic interest whose gender in non-specific (you).

The Other Side of the Door — ‘she’ refers to the third party in Taylor’s relationship with a romantic interest whose gender is non-specific (you).

White Horse — ‘she’ refers to the third party in Taylor’s relationship with a romantic interest whose gender is non-specific (you).

You Belong with Me — ‘she’ refers to the third party in Taylor’s relationship with a romantic interest whose gender is non-specific (you).

Mine — uses reversed perspective; ‘she’ is self-referential. Taylor’s romantic interest is gender non-specific (you).

How You Get the Girl — ‘her’ may refer either to Taylor herself or to her romantic interest.

This is what you came for

Babe — ‘her’ refers to the third party in Taylor’s relationship w/ a romantic interest whose gender is non-specific (you).

End Game — ‘girl’ occurs only in the featured parts. Taylor’s own romantic interest is gender non-specific (you).

The Man – “what’s it like to brag about…getting bitches and models.”  

ME! – “baby girl when it comes to a lover.” Note that “you’re the kind of guy the ladies want” is implicitly contrasted with “and there’s a lot of cool chicks out there” which is the “one of these things” that “is not like the others, like a rainbow with all of the colours.” Taylor has further stated that ME! Is her first song about “baby chickens.”

The Last Great American Dynasty — “she” refers to Rebekah Harkness, the biographical subject.  

Mad Woman — “she” is the wife of the subject “you,” rather than a romantic interest of the persona “I”.

Betty — uses reversed perspective, although the argument can also be made that actually “James” is a girl/Taylor herself.

Exile  — in lyrical terms, the love interest is gender neutral (“you”); the pronoun “he” describes this “you’s” new lover.

Mirrorball

Seven — the pronouns are gender neutral (“you”) but the love interest is, arguably, female coded. Thus “your braids like a pattern” and “pack your dolls and a sweater.”

August

This is me trying

Illicit Affairs —  the love interest’s pronouns are gender neutral (“you”). However, they are arguably female coded. Thus, “leave the perfume on the shelf that you picked out just for him.”

Invisible String — the love interest’s pronouns are gender neutral (“you”). Note, however, “for the boys who broke my heart.”

Epiphany — the lyrics are not romantic

Peace

Hoax

The Lakes

I can't !!!!!!!!!!!!

Evelyn Hugo and Celia St James

She did it.....you kept me like a secret but i kept you like an oath

so the main character got emotionally destroyed by a boy and then later grew up to be someone who looks suspiciously like celia st james, a lesbian who married a man

I'M WATCHING MISS AMERICANA AGAIN AND CAN SOMEONE EXPLAIN THIS TO ME? SHE IS SO LOUD

I was wondering if anyone knows any speculations of the Ryan Reynolds scene in YNTCD where he's painting two buildings with the LGBTQ flag but he's looking at two empty seats? I just found that one weird

here’s the thing about how falling down the gaylor rabbit hole went for me.. the more i came to learn about the kaylor love story, the more sublime it became.

Taylor Swift’s 2005-2006 MySpace Comments

Taylor’s alleged MySpace comments in a chronological order from 2005 to 2006. (Time of posts on 24h). Pictures of the comments were too blurry, so I didn’t add, but if needed, I have them saved in a file if anyone needs proof. 

NB: All the comments are replies to unknown posts by her friends, so the context is unknown.
