Also good point. Honestly that might be my favorite song by her. I think sometimes she curses in a way that calls attention to it, which is obnoxious and that's what I'm thinking of.
What does it mean to you? I’m a shorter woman and I have my own feelings on it but I never would’ve correlated the icky feeling I get hearing ‘sexy baby’ to my height
The "baby" is supposed to be understood as a guy calling you his girl/baby/darling, something that makes you feel protected and loved. She sees the women around her as sexy and desirable (them being short is one of the reasons why, see "tay tay gets to be smol gurl" tiktok) while she feels too massive, gross, out of place and completely unlovable. I'm tall as well and also had situations where I felt out of place with because I was good 15 cm taller than friends around me and I felt like I was violating some unspoken rules of femininity by just existing.
i'm 90% sure that Taylor neve read anything by aristotle.
it's pretty obvious that she didn't read Hamlet when she wrote Fate of Ophelia, and i wouldn't be surprised that she never read Romeo and Juliet and The Scarlet Letter.
TLDR: Taylor like to appear to be more cultured than she actually is, either that or she can't interpret literature in any way
Anything race- or queer-coded. Anything to do with sex. Any terminally online Gen Z/alpha slang. Anything about books she either hasn't read at all or hasn't read carefully enough. Really, any topic more sophisticated than shitty men. Even non-shitty men. ESPECIALLY non-shitty men.
I can mostly excuse everything else for being classic out-of-touch White Girl cringe, but something about Actually Romantic legitimately felt gross to me. I'll peg it to the blatant egotism and lack of self-awareness about how other artists feel about her, plus her further enabling the racism and misogyny towards Charli XCX.
Reading all this makes me think she's emotionally stunted, she can't pull off any adult phrases seriously. Swears and sexual tones are weird when she says them
Anything remotely queer-coded will just bring back traumatic memories of the time a horrible bald man allowed Lea Michele to use the word "hunty" on national television.

The word “fuck”
She can’t pull it off
Sometimes she can. It works in Champagne Problems.
Yeah good point
It worked on Betty for me, but she was also writing as someone else.
Also good point. Honestly that might be my favorite song by her. I think sometimes she curses in a way that calls attention to it, which is obnoxious and that's what I'm thinking of.
& someone else was also writing with her
Sexy baby
If she says it completely straight yeah, I kinda liked how she said it in anti-hero
Still sounds weird, even with context.
I feel like this is one of those lines that people like to intentionally misinterpret. As a tall woman I resonated with it immediately lol

As another tall woman I don’t get it
I just think of the 30 Rock quote “I’m a very sexy baby” every time
I haatteee it. It just fuels my dislike of Midnights.

Aristotle. Unless she has a song fully critiquing the Categories or something.

Thank you,I’ve been saying this for years.
you know how to ball 🏈, i know aristotle 🧠😎
She's saying that her boyfriend knows how to muff her in the way she likes.

Can't wait for her next single "The Six Seven"
the concept of taylor speaking in brainrot.. im scared
yeah at this point to make it shorter it should be what should she be allowed to write about because yeah it's not looking good
Hey kids, spelling is fun!
In before she says Woke in a song
Good thing I like my friends cancelled
🤢🤮
"a goth-punk moment of female rage"
Hip hop slang in general.
I like the song, but Down Bad.
I could swear there's a Lana song that has pretty much same lyrics but is way better, no?
I don't wanna hear her lecture anyone about climate change with how many miles she puts on her private jet. Right message wrong messenger.

Ah-matised

"Touch me while your bros play Grand Theft Auto"
I wanna know if she thought that was sexy, because it is basically the opposite
You know how know ball, I know Aristotle
All the gen z/alpha slang terms from TikTok.

the whole T Swizzle verse, just all of it
"Mmm, the way you do me."
If you think that's Pat Monahan and that she hadn't said that yet, well, just you wait.
(also, she said "ah-matized", which is possibly worse)
Honestly I think she should consider packing it in. I've never been a fan, and it seems that as time goes on only her worst impulses survive.
