Yeah. The Man is not to say women don’t do these things, it’s that women are shamed for what men are celebrated for. The “high fives all around” was the opposite of a walk of shame.

Yes, and we all understand the deal with rich old men and young women, but it’s also a part of our patriarchal society. Male athletes get to act badly, and female athletes have to stay calm, again part of the patriarchy. The bar scene isn’t just a bachelor party, and the main point of the lyrics in that section are about how men can get angry, or many other emotional reactions, and that’s ok, while women, especially women in public or leadership roles, may not.

Someone suggested that Taylor is wearing fries because she was referring to being “salty” and Katie was a hamburger because they had a “beef”. But ultimately the burger and fries can go well together. 🤷♀️🤣. Lover is not my favorite album of hers, but I did go to a Taylor swift embroidery party and chose “you need to calm down” as my design for the night.

@lianereichert53776 ай бұрын
You need to remember that lover came after reputation. Rep was dark and moody and lover is light. Taylor jokes saying she was on better mood. The first single was ME! with Easter egg about the new album. We didn't knew the name yet and ME! was the only singled release then she release you need to calm down then lover and the man was last. In the lover house Taylor shows are her different albums as rooms and she also uses in the the eras tour. Like debut is green , fearless is upside down (her breakout album , everything changed, red album she wears a yellow dress. 1989 is a fishbowl. She came super famous. Speak now is the purple room and the pink room is lover. The fans later figured folklore and evermore is the stairs. Midnights is the sky and stars

I feel like the hall of hands giving "high fives" is more so metaphorical, in that often men get praised left and right, sometimes just for existing, where as women are not, unless it's related to physical features and misogynistic comments that often imply that women have certain roles that only they should be doing (IE personal assistant, secretary, receptionist, etc.). And when a woman is successful in the workplace (particularly one in which men usually are), they are often questioned as to what they did to get there because they couldn't have possibly just put in the work and actually earned it on their own.

I can’t help but be bothered by how he missed the point of the man mv by always bringing up how women also do the stuffs being called out in the mv. It doesn’t have to be a competition of who’s worse tho, it’s about bringing light to how this kind of behavior is normalized in men but are antagonized in women, and that’s in no way justifying those actions. Exaggerated as it may be, that’s the reality of some men. But eh maybe I’m just nitpicking

Tho she did end up adopting that kitten and that was adorable.

I! The music video of Me! and song were necessary for Taylor as a transition from Reputation and Lover. She needed the song to change the perspective of the darkness and how negative her life was on Reputation. Taylor brought the colors back to her life, she was in love and her reputation was recovering. Also, I don't understand why the song is so hated when songs and videos like California Girls, Barbie World and others are so accepted and practically serve the same purpose. They are the same. I don't think this is Lover's best song or even of her career, but that's okay. It's funny, charming and brilliant. If it had been the second or third single it would have been different. In my opinion, the era could have started with Cruel Summer and ended with Daylight.

Katy Perry was the burger. The burger/fries theory I have is: Taylor and Katy had 'beef' at one point, Taylor was 'salty'... but they've made up. And I think the word you were looking for was "kitch" -- that cheesy, colorful, retro 50s/60s kind of styling.

Oh man, The Man reaction is hard to watch. Anyone have a link to a good book breaking down misogyny for Jim? 😂. It drives me crazy when people take a systemic problem and minimize it by comparing it to their personal experiences. The video is displaying generalities in an exaggerated specific example to make a point in a few seconds vs. the huge amount of time to fully explain it. Any women watching the man understands exactly what each scene represents because we have all lived it to some degree.

Watching these videos again except for ME! made me realize there is a lot of yellow and red. Lover is usually pink and blue. Her wearing a yellow dress in the red room is the only room where she doesnt match the room color or album vibe. YNTCD red curtain and red in her hair. Even he said there is a lot of red in these video. Yacht girls in The Man wore yellow bikinis. Were they easter eggs that Fearless & Red would be the first rerecordings? Im a 2021 swiftie so i was wondering what the long time swifities thought back then. Its definitely obvious that Fearless backwards on The Man wall was but we know now The Man wall shows the rerecords in the shape of an infinity sign

Kinda sad you didn't really get the music video for The Man because you're usually so spot on. Both men and women *can* be rude of course, but more often than not, an authoritative and successful man will be labeled as a boss and an authoritative and successful women will be called a bitch. Here are some examples from the vid: When guys get with a lot of people they're cool, when girls get with a lot of people they're shamed. When guys get angry in sports it's because they're passionate, when girls show the same "passion" they're labeled emotional or dramatic. When dad's do the bare minimum for their kids they're praised, but moms that do 10x the work are criticized if they take a moment for themselves. etc. etc.
