Taylor Swift Songs as Enneagram Personality Types
The Enneagram is a personality test that classifies your personality in one of nine categories, each with different traits. Most of Taylor Swift's songs fall into two of the personality types: type 4 (the individualist) and type 9 (the peacemaker). The songs on these lists are mostly in album order - however, there are a few added onto the ends of a few of the lists that took me a little longer to place that come out of order.
TYPE 1: THE REFORMER
The reformer tends to be rational. This person is idealistic and principled - they live by their values. They are purposeful and self-controlled, and tend to be perfectionists. The songs I classified as Type 1's are songs that focus on the ideals in relationships and life. They're songs where Taylor has a purpose, and some of them tend to have more rational thoughts behind them.
Tim McGraw
Mary's Song (Oh My My My)
Fifteen
Untouchable
We Were Happy
Don't You
Last Kiss
I Almost Do
The Last Time
I Wish You Would
How You Get The Girl
Clean
End Game
The Archer
The 1
This Is Me Trying
Epiphany
The Lakes
Happiness
It's Time To Go
Mastermind
Dear Reader
TYPE 2: THE HELPER
The helper is a caring person who genuinely cares about other people. They tend to be interpersonal and generous. These people are people-pleasing, and can be possessive. The songs I classified as Type 2's are ones where she clearly shows caring for other people, sometimes to the extent of people-pleasing. She tends to be possessive in some of these songs, too.
Teardrops On My Guitar
Tied Together with a Smile
Stay Beautiful
Hey Stephen
Jump Then Fall
That's When
Sparks Fly
Enchanted
Stay Stay Stay
Begin Again
Run
Welcome to New York
Wildest Dreams
Delicate
Lover
Afterglow
It's Nice to Have a Friend
Seven
Marjorie
You're On Your Own, Kid
Glitch
Sweeter Than Fiction
Sad Beautiful Tragic
Ronan
Soon You'll Get Better
Safe & Sound
TYPE 3: THE ACHIEVER
The achiever is a success-oriented, pragmatic, and hard working person. This person is very driven and adaptive, and is very image-conscious. The songs classified under this category show how conscious Taylor is of her own image. They're the songs where she's trying to show herself in a positive light. These are the songs where she shows herself as a hard worker and just how successful she is, without caring about those who try to bring her down.
A Place in This World
Change
Superstar
The Other Side of the Door
Speak Now
Mean
Long Live
I Bet You Think About Me
Style
Shake It Off
Call It What You Want
I Think He Knows
ME!
Mirrorball
Gold Rush
Midnight Rain
Karma
Today Was a Fairytale
I Heart ?
You All Over Me
TYPE 4: THE INDIVIDUALIST
The individualist tends to be withdrawn and sensitive. This person is self-absorbed and dramatic, and tends to be temperamental. This person is very expressive. These songs are dramatic and temperamental, the ones where Taylor is bolder about herself - she is in the right in all of these songs, even when she isn't.
Picture to Burn
A Perfectly Good Heart
You Belong With Me
The Way I Loved You
Forever & Always (Piano Version)
Come In With The Rain
Mr. Perfectly Fine
Better Than Revenge
Holy Ground
Girl At Home
Blank Space
I Did Something Bad
Look What You Made Me Do
The Man

Illicit Affairs
No Body, No Crime
Cowboy Like Me
Anti-Hero
Vigilante Shit
High Infidelity
Carolina
Invisible
Breathe
All Too Well
All Too Well (10 Minute Version)
My Tears Ricochet
TYPE 5: THE INVESTIGATOR
The investigator is intense and cerebral - they tend to think more with their brains than with their hearts. They are perceptive and innovative, but tend to be secretive and isolated. The songs classified as Type 5's are the ones where Taylor finds herself isolated and alone. A lot of these songs tend to be very intelligently written.
The Outside
White Horse
The Story of Us
Innocent
Treacherous
Starlight
Nothing New
I Know Places
Getaway Car
I Forgot That You Existed
Exile
Peace
'Tis the Damn Season
Tolerate It
Coney Island
Ivy
Labyrinth
Would've, Could've, Should've
Beautiful Ghosts
Eyes Open
Evermore
TYPE 6: THE LOYALIST
The loyalist is committed and security-oriented. They tend to be anxious and suspicious of those around them. They are responsible and engaging. Taylor tends to be anxious and suspicious in a lot of the songs I classified as Type 6's. They're the songs where she's seeking security and comfort, but may not always be receiving it. Things are going wrong in many of these songs.
Cold As You
Tell Me Why
Bye Bye Baby
If This Was a Movie
I Knew You Were Trouble
The Lucky One
The Moment I Knew
Forever Winter
New Romantics
Don't Blame Me
This Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things
False God
August
Hoax
Question...?
I Don't Wanna Live Forever
The Very First Night
TYPE 7: THE ENTHUSIAST
The enthusiast is spontaneous and fun-loving. They are busy and versatile, but they tend to be a bit distractible and scattered. These songs have a lot of energy and are fun. These are the dance songs, the ones that make you want to move. This is the smallest list of the nine personality types. While a lot of Taylor Swift songs could fall under this personality type, most of them tend to fall under another type better, hence why this list is so small.
I'm Only Me When I'm With You
Forever & Always
Ours
22
We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together
Message in a Bottle
All You Had to Do Was Stay
Wonderland
Gorgeous
Paper Rings
London Boy
Lavender Haze
Bejeweled
Paris
TYPE 8: THE CHALLENGER
The challenger is a powerful and self-confident person. This person tends to be dominating - you're always aware of their presence when they walk in the room. They are decisive and willful, and oftentimes tend to be confrontational. The songs under this category tend to be confrontational and angry. Many are songs where she is feeling confident in herself. These songs tend to have a lot of energy, but aren't as happy and energetic as Type 7 songs.
Should've Said No
Fearless
You're Not Sorry
Mine
Dear John
Haunted
Superman
State of Grace
Red
Better Man
Out of the Woods
Bad Blood
...Ready For It?
Dancing with Our Hands Tied
Dress
Cruel Summer
Miss Americana & the Heartbreak Prince
You Need to Calm Down
Mad Woman
Betty
Champagne Problems
Dorothea
Long Story Short
Closure
Babe
TYPE 9: THE PEACEMAKER
The peacemaker is easygoing and self-effacing. They are receptive and really good listeners. They are agreeable and complacent, and they tend to avoid conflict as much as possible. The songs in this category are ones where Taylor is easygoing, calm, and agreeable. She tends to be open to listening to the other person's point of view in these songs, as well.
Our Song
Love Story
The Best Day
Today Was a Fairytale
Back to December
Never Grow Up
Everything Has Changed
Come Back... Be Here
This Love

the whole guilt-tripping language in posts about important topics paired with how I'm still getting bitches in my notes talking about why it's actually good to tell "bad" people to kill themselves continues to prove to me that a lot of people have absolutely no concept of social justice or activism outside of assuming the worst of and then viciously attacking strangers on the internet

Prim's name wasn't the only one in the reaping bowl because the entire point of Prim being chosen is to show that life in Panem is random and cruel. These kids truly are selected and die for nothing, based on nothing, most of the time. There is often no grand cosmic plan or 4D chess conspiracy at play in awful circumstances unfolding, just systems of oppression working as they were designed. And you can do everything right to the letter - be the youngest eligible tribute from an unknown family whose name is only in the bowl once, not take out any tesserae - but it still won't save you.

I feel like both internet liberals and leftists have a tendency to reverse-Great Man Theory Ronald Reagan at the expense of any insight into the history of his policies or the conservative movement that led up to him.

Whenever people who are entrenched in diet culture talk about how terrible chemicals are, I just want to whip out this:
Tumblr media
#diet culture#diet culture tw#described images#image description in alt#'it's got CHEMICALS in it' and so do you! and me too! IT'S ALL CHEMICALS ALL THE WAY DOWN#instead of running from this world we must learn to embrace it#i'm not particularly angry at people who say this because it makes me think that they're incredibly invested in diet culture...#...i just don't want the whole 'food = bad' or 'bodies = bad' to go unchallenged...#...part of the reason why diet culture seems just as prevalent now (if not moreso) is partially because it isn't really...#...challenged or questioned without provocation. it's just assumed to be correct because it makes you 'feel in control'#when chemicals are bad you can control what chemicals you consume. it's individualistic and places the blame onto you for 'being good'#it places responsibility onto the person in such a way that it becomes impossible to fulfill#it isn't that i'm upset that people want to treat their bodies in a way they think is responsible...#...moreso that the *way* they go about it ensures that they're stuck in a cycle of self-blame and even self-hatred#because the METHOD is ineffective. not the desire to treat your body well#also the state of ohio looks stupid and i do Not respect it#it looks like a ball that is simultaneously deflated and over-inflated#also their state flag looks silly to me#it looks like the person who was making it fell asleep making it#i'm just clowning on ohio at this point. have never been to ohio but. are you guys okay

i think the problem that arises with "x desire comes from internalized oppression" stuff is not that it suggests we should be critical with our desired and how they are constructed. it's that some people have already decided the correct answer to that introspection. so if you Really questioned your own oppression you would know that Enjoying Sex Work Is Bad! and if you haven't come to that conclusion than you are still brainwashed. it is vital that we respect a person's ability to introspect on their desires and come to a different conclusion about them as an individual. & frankly choice feminism is still choice feminism when the focus is on Rejecting Everything Patriarchal instead of eyeliner so sharp it could kill a man.

Why do people think me saying "ideally, socialism will unite the world and we should strive towards that" talk to me like I said something weird and bizarre that nobody has ever thought before. Like it doesn't have piles of theory behind it (agreeing and disagreeing with it). This is literally something socialist theorists have been talking about since day one and something that has been tried to be implemented in one form or the other by socialist movements. Why the fuck do you think they call it the Internationale. Why do you think there is a "Workers of the World Unite" in the tombstone of Karl Marx.

talking about the current regression of basic feminism 101 shit in wider culture but then blaming it on All Those Unenlightened Normie Cishet Women instead of any of the high-level forces or key actors who might be influencing their attitudes/behavior is... certainly an interesting approach lol. and yet somehow very common?
