Her idea of ‘Feminism’

In an interview with Billboard in 2012, when Taylor was asked if she was a feminist, this was her reply “I don’t really think about things as guys versus girls, I never have. I was raised by parents who brought me up to think if your work as hard as guys, you can go far in life” Is she talking about equality? Yes. Does she know that that’s what feminism is about? undoubtedly, no. So after she practically denied being a feminist, which she had a totally sad knowledge about, she realized in 2014 (through Lena Dunham, funnily enough) that she wanted to be in this imploding scene of feminism so she announced herself a feminist *cue applause*. Now let’s take a look at what Taylor has done as a feminist… One, she managed to gather up an all-white, all unrealistic body standards, all celeb and all girl ‘squad’ which occasionally hung together at parties and showed up to her concerts for support. Two, She also managed to donate to Kesha secretively over her ongoing lawsuit against Dr. Luke, which Demi Lovato, FYI slammed her for, saying “Take something to Capitol Hill or actually speak out about something and then I'll be impressed” Demi didn’t just stop there, she followed it by writing, “Not everyone has 250k to just give to people. Would love to but I didn't grow up with money and def haven't made as much as her. At least I speak up about shit that's uncomfortable to talk about rather than trying to be politically correct 24/7. I just give more fucks than other people and would rather start a dialogue ABOUT WOMEN COMING FORWARD ABOUT BEING RAPED than throw money at one person.” And that’s it, the empowering list ends. Passive Taylor continues to not make use of her giant following for any good at all.
