"gets my feminist goat"

Why is she bringing her life partner into this discussion?

"The world is wicked, we’ve lost common sense and stupid people are allowed the same freedom of speech as those of us that think with our brains."

So, first amendment only if we agree with this person?

My 12 y.o. daughter is a huge Taylor Swift fan. She’s saving her pennies for the new CD coming out next month.

Beautiful women who don’t go liberal are a huge problem for the feminazis.:)

This is probably why they hate her...

On April 28, 2009, Swift gave a free, private concert to students at Bishop Ireton High School, a small Catholic school in Alexandria, Virginia after the school won a national "TXT 2 WIN" contest from Verizon Wireless.[64] The students sent over 19,000 text messages to Verizon during a roughly one month long contest. Swift played for about an hour during the school's field day, an annual day-long recess with games and activities. On October 8, 2009 Swift's official website announced that her sold-out Fearless Tour would return to North America for 37 additional dates in 2010.

If this feminist in training has her knickers in a twist about Taylor Swift, why isn't she upset about what is happening to girls her age and younger in Iran, Yemen and other Islamic countries? Where is her outrage about women being treated as little better than cattle, teenage girls being whipped, hanged or stoned to death for flirting or having sex? Why isn't she incensed that girls as young as six in these countries are being “married” to men old enough to be their grandfathers and being little more than sex toys? Why isn't she speaking out about women in Afghanistan being denied education by the Taliban solely because of their sex, being forced to wear faceless bhurkas and never being able to leave to leave their home without a male escort? Where is her indignation that teen age Muslim girls in the US are being murdered by fathers, brothers or uncles in “honor” killings because they choose to date outside their faith? This kid better get a clue on what is happening in the world.

Thank you for bringing this to my attention.
My 8 year old granddaughter loves Taylor, so do I.

My prayers go out to all of todays parents with
what they and their children face.

Nice post. Loved the video. My eight year old is Taylor Swift crazy, and I highly approve.
