In order to discuss a queer take on Taylor’s Easter eggs, life, and lyrics we have to understand the term FLAGGING.

Simply put, flagging is to draw attention to information that you think is important, (especially by putting a special mark next to it.)

Since queerness existed (literally forever) flagging is something the community including myself, has done in order to discreetly and openly show that we’re part of the LGBTQIA community.

This has been done through color coding, wearing pins or buttons, shoe laces, handkerchiefs, terminology like “a friend of Dorothy,” clothing items, slang, referring to movements as a “hair pin drop” etc.

In true swift fashion, taylor is quick to hiding secret messages in her music videos, photo shoots, concert visuals, outfits, and so much more.

Since Debut, she has been hiding messages in her lyrics and planning announcements, songs, future activities, and ideas.

Only recently has she began to openly support the LGBTQIA community through creating music for queer perspectives like You Need to Calm Down. (Pictured above).

Since it is still illegal in many countries and punishable by death is is extremely difficult for world famous icons especially at Taylor’s caliber to comfortably come out without harm to their income, reputation, and mind/body. Leaving me reason to believe that IF she is queer, she has not openly come out to protect herself and her loved ones from harm. I mean, who can blame her?

I believe—that Taylor Swift uses her music and expression to flag. A huge portion of her audience is the queer community, regardless of the truth she continues to use her platform to not only express herself but also make music and moments for everyone to enjoy, debunk, and share.

From secret loves to hiding in plain sight her music is undeniably reminding us of an all too real queer experience that many of us face on a day to day basis. Her music is like a note, telling us that she sees us, she understands, and she’s here to stay.

K you know how Taylor won’t shut up about blue...several hints have been dropped relating Joni Mitchel so I am 100% that JMs album Blue is a Kaylor clue...One of Taylor’s diary entries said she taught herself to play “case of you” - some choice lyrics for you to consider here:

“I met a woman

She had a mouth like yours, she knew your life

She knew your devils and your deeds and she said

Go to him

Stay with him if you can

But prepared to bleed...

Oh but you are in my blood like holy wine”
