Do people in the real world behave like Taylor Swift?

• Hey said that TayTay wasn't all that and felt that the amount of reportage was disproportionate to the actual level of talent and accomplishment. I agreed. (We both also agreed that she has some good songs. We're not haters of her work per se.)

• I went on to theorize that she seems like someone who has Borderline Personality Disorder. She goes through men like socks whom she subsequently trashes in her songs, clearly has a narrative of victimhood in her songs as well, and she seems to have lots of fairly rancorous conflicts and rivalries (e.g., with Katy Perry).

• He took umbrage with my comment about her relationships, as though I had been slut-shaming her. I explained more carefully that it wasn't the number per se, it was the nature of the relationships and breakups.

• I also said that this wasn't just my opinion, that she has a pretty bad reputation in the media, and that, in my perception, this reputation was congruent with what facts I know. I admitted, however, that I was no TayTay expert.

• My friend cited times when he felt she was justified, as when she was mistreated by Kanye and her recent defense of herself in court. I agreed with him on both counts but said that her being right sometimes doesn't negate the overall narrative.

• I told him I'd gather more evidence.

And so, I'm crowdsourcing this shit: What do you think and know about Taylor? Is her toxicity really just surface-level, some minor squabbles and relationship drama, or does she really have a darkside?

My impression of her is, as I said, she seems like someone with a personality disorder. For example, when she started dating poor Tom Hiddleston, it was obvy that it was going to last shorter than a mayfly's birthday party.

But you tell me. I am going to show him this actual thread, so feel free to present whatever cites and reasoning you choose. Thanks!

I miss the days when she was the innocent country girl singer. Now he's turned slut/ho MTV and getting mind fucked while using men to write her new songs after she breaks up with them.

It's like child stars. She's never really been "in the real world."
