Guys who like Taylor Swift: it's just to get chicks ... right?

You don't believe any guy has ever legitimately been into pop music?

Taylor Swift has a few songs I like, I generally don’t like her music or her fans though, it’s literal worship of AI generated breakup songs that are hard to distinguish from one another for the most part. Having my feed populated by “omg I can’t believe she’s finally releasing this album I’m so excited for this album it’s gonna be the best album she’s ever released OMG T swift is such a slay” every 2 months is starting to drive me bonkers.

Mostly middle school girls made her the megastar she is, but you don't stay on top for as long as she has without a LOT of men and women buying your music.

What makes Taylor Swift a "girls only" artist that guys can't legitimately like? She's clearly a talented singer, songwriter, and performer with a keen business sense.

Would you question guys that like Aretha Franklin, Stevie Nicks, Joan Jett, Janis Joplin, Bonnie Raitt, Billie Holiday, Chrissie Hynde, Deborah Harry, Patti Smith, Linda Ronstadt, Dolly Parton, Carly Simon, Pat Benatar, Kate Bush, Sheryl Crow, Missy Elliott??? (They are all in the R&R hall of fame).

You either need to look up the definition of the names you're calling me (how original) or work on your horrid ability to grasp facts, because what you think is fact is the exact opposite in reality.

Do you want to ask Yared Nuguse about this?

That may be right or wrong, I'm not sure. There's certainly instances where its true and others where it's false. I do many great things but if I do disgusting things, they're only harming myself and never others. But astoundingly you chose a statement most likely to be true from an array of statements you've made about me--some of which are the exact opposite of reality.

Not a heterosexual.

as a man who's into TS: i'm into taylor swift to hook up with your closeted jock friends who are way more numerous than you could ever believe

I listen to Taylor Swift when were cooking Uncle Bosey 🔪🥩🥩🍺

Name three.

No, it’s not just to get chicks, rather it’s to relieve constipation.

Stay poopy!

Correct. It's possible straight guys might enjoy clubbing, or don't mind hearing cheesy top 40 music on the radio, but if you're "legitimately into" pop music, that's another story.

I did think of Yared when writing this and honestly I don't get it for him at all. Yared seems like, and I mean this in the kindest way possible, a dork. Like he absolutely wouldn't only like Taylor Swift to pull chicks. But then does he enjoy poppy breakup songs when he's ripping 55 second quarters? I personally prefer some Alice in Chains but I've been known to throw some chick pop in the playlist so I can't fully judge. Taylor Swift has just been such a huge phenomenon that I just don't get outside of the obvious teenage girls and aging women who pretend they're teenage girls.

I'm a Taylor Swift defender in that I think her music isn't nearly as bad as some people make it out to be, especially in relation to other popular music. In a world full of terrible music, she's bearable. But I'm definitely not putting her on when I'm listening to music by myself.
