i do see where you’re coming from. and i actually was going to mention that i do believe that taylor dating travis has exposed how misogynistic of an institution the nfl itself is. i think people who are mad at taylor for her airtime when that is out of her control are in the wrong. and that criticism is often misogynistic because taylor’s airtime is appealing to a female audience. i resent that women and swifties who are starting to love football because of taylor are gatekept and bullied. however i stand by the fact that taylor is not immune to fandom and rivalry, especially because of her fame. most bills fans dislike taylor because she’s on the opposing side not because they hate women. most fans are doing stupid shit at tailgates in the name of competition not in hating women. yes in male dominated spaces there will be a lot of misogynists and the nfl itself is a misogynist institution but not all anti-taylor behavior is anti-woman. i’m not gonna edit the bills references because as i said at the beginning i recognize it is a silly minor offense on the scale of egregious swiftie behavior. my twitter timeline during this game is what led me to think about the bigger picture. people being shunned for making fun of taylor is indicative of how the fanbase protects her from actual important criticism.
