gumzy3000 6,473 Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 It’s pretty okay. I did not find anything super special about it. The social commentary was also pretty basic. It’s a good message but nothing I did not hear before p.s - she makes a good looking man trolly troll troll Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HookerOnAChurch 6,637 Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 It's not my cup of tea.. Sorry Tay but you have such a better videography than this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
OMonster 14,213 Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 Loved the video, but reflecting on it - I always find it a little unsettling how pop stars kind of judge all men by the same, stereotypical standard. There's something really hypocritical about a person bringing down another person when they're very outspoken about not bringing people down - especially based on an innate trait like gener. It's always a little harmful to men who AREN'T the way that pop stars / the media portray men to be. Taylor has a lot of gay fans (as do all pop stars), and what about men with mental health issues and insecurities? To have a video that basically says - yeah, this is what men are - is a little, idk, unsettling in SOME ways. I know it's just a fun video, and I really enjoyed it. And I totally understand (and hate) that women have been portrayed in a horrible light in the media, too, but I guess I just don't like the principle of 'when they go low, we'll go lower' - do you know what I mean? I genuinely think that portraying men in this way is harmful and wrong when, around the world, it is actually men who are dying the most of suicide and mental health problems. And obviously one video isn't going to cause any trouble; but it's part of a wider narrative that's forming around how men are 'wrong' and not part of the 'woke' world anymore.

Guest Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 @brownie I would like to see Taylor do a video about issues actually effecting women all over the world. None of the issues addressed in the video help women, it only helps Taylor get woke points. This is Buzzfeed pop white feminism that like to talk about none issues like man spreading in subway!

RadioIsOurs 13,692 Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 Honestly maybe this is just an American thing, but a lot of these specific 'double standards' aren't really all that big in my country, which is VERY conservative. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think there's any doubt (or hardness in understanding that) she is referring to a SPECIFIC kind of men. She's obviously NOT speaking about good guys, about all men that you spoke about (those who have issues etc) etc etc etc. She's talking to a SPECIFIC category, men of power and MOST OF THEM (not ALL OF THEM) are the exact way that she portrayis in this video. I think we're definitely gone too far about this eternal and everlisting issue of: STEREOTYPES. Do u think she hates men? She's engaged with a boy.. she simply picked the good guy as a partner, but ofc she experienced, personally and professionally, the bad guys's company. That's all...
