it’s just like. maybe she just liked the colors of the bi flag and dyed her hair for fun. maybe she liked the idea of cedar closets and was inspired to write a song about an ex boyfriend. maybe she wore a rainbow dress during her pride speech because rainbows are pretty. maybe she dressed like a pride flag flamingo for wango tango to match pride month as an ally. maybe she said that gay pride makes her her because she’s that committed to allyship. maybe she heard about the connotations of lavender in the 50s and wrote a song about how that mirrors her feelings for her boyfriend. maybe she’s never heard of the “hair pin drop around the world” (stonewall) and just chose something that wouldn’t make much noise. maybe she really just likes singing from alternate perspectives. maybe she forgot to change the pronouns when she covered riptide from a female perspective. maybe she put herself in glass closets in multiple music videos because she feels trapped by herself. maybe she wrote so much about secrecy on reputation because she thought if she was seen with her boyfriend publicly it would ruin the relationship. maybe she wrote so much about secrecy in her earlier albums because she prefers privacy. maybe she wrote about secrecy on folklore and evermore because she was writing fiction. maybe she compared loving her partner to sin that forfeits her good standing with god and the world because she likes to be dramatic. maybe the very first night is about a guy and she just accidentally made the verses rhyme with “her”. maybe she really likes daisies because they’re pretty. maybe connections between cruel summer and closure are accidental. maybe connections between it’s time to go and down bad are accidental. maybe she’s been best friends with all of her lovers. maybe!

album aesthetic: folklore (2020) by taylor swift

you knew it still hurts underneath my scars from when they pulled me apart, but what you did was just as dark

It must be exhausting always rooting for the anti hero… 💔

lmfao gaylors don't need to twist or overanalyze anything. She's not "secretly" queer. She straight up says it:

And oh look! She did it again in the rep prologue when she said every attribution to a man would be an incorrect theory.

And what do you know! She did it AGAIN in the Me! lyric vid.

WAIT THERE'S MORE. What's in the ever loving fuck is this gay-ass shit???

So, anon, it's "actually pretty gross" that you look at blatant, obvious, deliberate queer flagging and say it's bullshit. And I will call out homophobia whenever and wherever it is called for. Just because you're queer doesn't mean you can't exhibit and experience internalized homophobia.

Taylor has become a billionaire by making a career out of leaving clues to get fans to guess who the songs are about, what the next album will be, what secret message she's trying to convey. She leaves easter eggs everywhere. And she queer flags so fucking hard that you only need eyes and two brain cells to rub together to see it. No one is forcing her to come out. She queer flags to signal, to get people to notice it. Everything she publishes is published for public consumption and we're allowed to talk about it. Pretending we can't see what she's desperately trying to get us to see is no different from shoving queer people back in the closet and saying "SHHH! DON'T ASK DON'T TELL!"
