Hi folks. First of all, I am not a fan of Taylor Swift and frankly, I can’t stand her. However, I will give her that she did play with one of my favourite rock bands, namely Def Leppard and that was cool. Otherwise, I could care less what she does or Travis Kelce for that matter as I’m not a football fan.
If you live in the US and you follow right wing radio, apparently there’s a conspiracy out there that Joe Biden is going to win the election because of Taylor Swift. Really? Do you actually believe that bullshit? Either Joe Biden or Donald Trump is going to win the American election this year and it won’t be because of Tay-Tay or Ted Nugent, or Kid Rock. It woill be because people voted for whom ever becomes victorious and not because of some powerful or noisy or annoying people on either side.
If you really want to get into this even deeper, there may be something else that conservatives are afraid of. A friend of mine who went to school with me recently posted this on Facebook and I’m going to share it, whether he likes it or not and if he doesn’t, tough shit. If he does, great. Either way, my friend Chris is Facebook Poast is going to be as part of a blog post all around the world. This is not posted by my friend, but by someone named Terri Lynn Coop and that’s all I know. Anyway, enjoy.
The part of the Taylor Swift kerfuffle that’s being overlooked isn’t just that they hate her for being powerful.
They are also utterly bewildered by Travis Kelce. Travis is the epitome of what the red-hat crowd considers a “real man.” He is a big brawny bearded dude who looks like he could rip an F-150 in half with one hand while guzzling beer with the other. He loves his mama (and murika too.) He is the poster boy for their fantasies of “don’t try this in a small town.”
“Men” like that aren’t supposed to want, or even like, or even acknowledge the presence of, powerful women. Remember, that the men who are with powerful women, are in their minds, weak little pasty beta cucks who simper and carry their purses in malls. “Real men,” like Travis, according to them, want women who are fluffy little mousy things who want to stay home barefoot, and maybe take a “little job” for some “play money” and only have the opinions that their man allows them in between tending jesus and babies.
So, seeing Travis Kelce bumping shoulders with his drunk ass brother after the game saying “fuckin-A bro,” and then gathering the arguably most powerful young woman in the world in a bear hug and kissing her gently on the forehead while a tear glistens on his cheek, is causing them to go into meltdown mode.
Could they be . . . . wrong?
Nah . . . .
It all must be Taylor Swift’s fault. She is challenging their paradigm of masculinity.
And the red hat women? Anything that challenges their path, their holy certitude that the only way to get a “real man” to notice you is to be a fluffy doormat, must be destroyed.
