Why is it always âqueer people are projecting their identities onto charactersâ and never âstraight people are presuming that their identity is the defaultâ?
This makes my heart hurt so bad. The sheer look of longing on her face, and then the anger she put into that next lyric in all too well was devastating.
The quick kiss saying âI see you. Iâm with you. I support you.â

during âall too well (10 minute version)â of eras houston n2, a lesbian couple blew kisses to taylor and after admiring them together for a few moments, she responded by blowing one back
Hello! Saw your post about whoâs afraid of little old me, and the new addition âfor the people who said I was reaching with the meaningâ. May I ask, what part of your interpretation did people think was a reach? And whatâs the meaning of this song in their opinion?
Hey anon!! đŠˇ
Put simply, they thought that the very idea that Taylor could be angry at the industry that made her famous is crazy. Surprisingly none of them said anything about me â¨rainbowtising⨠scandal in the lyrics which is usually the first hate comments the gaylor community gets.
Iâm pretty sure they think little old me is about a relationship, or a man who wronged her in said relationship. They confuse Taylorâ˘ď¸ and Taylor the human a lot. So they like to base their theories on what, or who the songs are about in the Taylorâ˘ď¸ persona, which is a female serial dater who then writes break up songs about her exes and âpretendsâ to be the victim.
I donât know how the oblivious swifties end up on gaylor pages anyway but I digressâŚ
Thanks for reading my theorizing! đŠˇ
(Feel free to add on if anyone has any thoughts on this)
Sheâs so angry at the people who arenât listening, and continue to be oblivious to her pain. đĽş
Whoâs afraid of little old me makes me so angry at the music industry, and the people who allowed her to be closeted. IM SO SORRY THEY DID THIS TO you sweetheart.
Peter is brand Taylor talking to real Taylor, I Look in Peopleâs Windows is real Taylor talking to brand Taylor (the two were supposed to become one, but the more famous she gets the harder it is)đđ
The whole theme of the album is Taylor herself and her career and how the industry has affected her, joe/matty/travis/kim are just red herrings bye im gonna go cry listening to Peter
(more detailsâŹď¸)
Iâm not saying that some songs arenât about those specific people, Iâm just saying theyâre only PART OF the theme, I believe her father (and other big heads in the industry) had a big influence on her career and forced her to stay in the closet from the very beginning, that messed her up, she had to hide her true self and keep bearding, and in 2019 she planned to come out but didnât because of the masters heist, now itâs because sheâs gotten more famous than ever that she has too much to lose. So maybe these men he dated, she did like them and she had multiple feelings when these relationships ended, but itâs all part of who the industry had made her into; she had one true love (maybe Karlie) but she couldnât be with that person thatâs why some songs are about a true deep love lost, but thatâs still part of the âher careerâ theme, because of her career, she canât be with that person. (more detailsâŹď¸)
Whatâs really interesting in this theme is that sheâs calling out her father in multiple songs because he really made her life harderâŚ
In Cassandra, (the obvious theory is that Cassandra representing gaylors bc weâve been saying the truth but never believed. And the first verse is about her getting the news of her masters heist just before her coming out plan, and then âstoneâs thrownâ is referencing Stonewall.) And in the bridge âThey knew the whole time that I was onto something. The family, the pure greed, the Christian chorus line. They all said nothing. Blood's thick but nothing like a payroll. Bet they never spared a prayer for my soulâ sheâs saying her family knew something but said nothing because greed and money, we saw the leaked emails of her father and how he cares more about making money out of Taylorâs career than caring about her as his daughter, so I think this bridge is about her father, also about religious trauma may or may not due to him.
In The Bolter, âA curious child, ever reviled by everyone except her own father. With a quite bewitching face, splendidly selfish, charmingly helpless, excellent fun 'til you get to know her, then she runs like it's a raceâ sheâs talking about herself being a precocious uniquely intelligent ambitious child, which everyone reviled except her father. why? because he wanted to invest money on her, he controlled how she conducted her career from the beginning.
Whatâs crazier is that Robin may be about her father too. That song sounds like a sweet song but sheâs faking it like âall this showmanship to keep it for you in sweetnessâ. If sheâs referring to her father (only wanting to make money out of her career) in this song then âyouâre an animal, you are bloodthirstyâ makes so much more sense. And the âburied down deep and out of your reach, the secret we all vowed to keep it from you in sweetnessâ her father probably knows about her queerness but wants her and everyone to keep it quiet.
In But Daddy I Love Him, âpeople only raise you to cage youâ is pretty obvious about her father forcing her to stay in the closet, and âpeople try and save you cause they hate youâ is literally about homophobes. âDutiful daughter, all my plans were laidâ is about her father laying all the plans for her, which isnât always what she wants. âI'd rather burn my whole life down, than listen to one more second of all this bitching and moaning. I'll tell you something about my good name, it's mine alone to disgraceâ reminds me of that scene in Miss Americana where her father was lecturing why she couldnât public her opinions. âThinking it can change the beat of my heart when he touches me. And counteract the chemistry, and undo the destinyâ is so queer coded. âSanctimoniously performing soliloquies I'll never see / You ain't gotta pray for meâ another reference to religious trauma.
So all of this, about her father, about her lover and other men, itâs all connected to her career and sheâs looking back at it, thinking and reflecting on it, thatâs it thatâs the blog
For the people who said I was reaching about the meaning:
⌠is it immature of me as a grown woman to say suck it? Well here I am⌠<3
The Gaylors killed this one đŠˇ
We will be taking no further criticism at this time.
Sheâs so angry at the people who arenât listening, and continue to be oblivious to her pain. đĽş
Whoâs afraid of little old me makes me so angry at the music industry, and the people who allowed her to be closeted. IM SO SORRY THEY DID THIS TO you sweetheart.
Itâs just like all the 5/3 theories I keep seeing like guys. Does it make some sense yes, but you need to chill.
"Breaking down, I hit the floor. All the pieces of me shattered as the crowd was chanting, "More"." just kills me. All those fans wanting more and more and more from Taylor when she already given so damn much of herself. I keep thinking about all those times Taylor released an album and fans were already moaning about the next album/rerecord. My heart breaks & blood boils.
As someone whoâs loved Sophia since oth, itâs nice to see her be so vulnerable about coming out. Her journey is valid and I hope people who accused her of being so many untrue things give her the grace she deserves. Please give this article a read, its beautifully written in her own words đ¤
