Why you gotta be so mean?
Oct. 22nd, 2012 07:58 pmOkay, so I kind of like Taylor Swift.
Look, I know she's not perfect. I know she has a shaky understanding of literature. I know she has an immature teenage angsty way of looking at romance.
But.
The amount of hate directed toward her on the internet, particularly by "feminist" bloggers, makes me really, really sad. The latest post I saw blasts her for saying some mildly dumb things in an interview (including an answer to a question that asked if she thought of herself as a feminist).
The girl is 22. Twenty-two.
I don't know about you, but I was an idiot when I was 22. I am SO GLAD there isn't a record of things I said/did/created between the ages of 15 and 22.
So...yeah.
