It won’t let me reply to you OP. But here is my response. Thank you for repeating my statement back to me. Do you understand what I’m trying to get at or would you like me to elaborate more clearly?

I don’t think it’s OK and I think the people that say, “well. Some of her exes were a lot older than her when she was dating them.” Both things can be true at once. She has had a lot of questionable age gaps.

and a lot of parasocial swifties defend this somehow so it’s just kind of unspoken of ig 💀 they were 22 and 17 then went public at 23 and 18 so she wouldn’t get called a pedo. and they love being like well he was 18 and she was 23 so it’s ok! even tho that’s very obviously wrong. it’s usually the 15 years old and under people that defend her i used to be one of those people but w growing up and maturity you definitely realize how fucked up she is but every celebrity is

I thought it was 17 then I read 18 somewhere. This was just made because people(Taylor included) keep saying how Jake and John Mayer were weird even though she did the same thing. And she was 19/20 so

Relationships can change, if both adults are happy/consenting then who are we to judge. But if the relationship shifts and becomes uncomfortable, abusive even, they can change their mind and no longer consent. People change, and some people are really good at lying and hiding until you get to known them. So even if those relationships ended badly, it doesn’t mean Taylor wasn’t happy at the start.

She knew the age gap between them and how different they were. As a 19 year old, I would have known not to date a guy in his late 20’s but she chose to. People acting like she’s a baby is crazy. She’s 19/20 a perfectly grown knowledgeable adult. If she didn’t like the relationship, she could leave. I doubt they were her.

No. Im sorry. But no. Not every 19 year old has the same mindset towards these things and 19 is a VERY influential age to be groomed and manipulated. 19 is absolutely 100% not a grown adult. You learn this a lot once you get older how easy it is to be groomed at that age, which she was.

If you have never been groomed and manipulated or known the way out OR better yet, had no idea the psychological and emotional abuse currently happening in the relationship, then no. You almost certainly cannot and will not leave.

She’s 19🤷‍♀️..you said the guys were 18 so it doesn’t matter. If that doesn’t matter then her age doesn’t matter

So why did you say the guys were 18? They were groomed?

I am genuinely confused where this conversation is headed. My reply of “he was 18” was to #1 who has since blocked me, because they stated she dated someone who was 17, when she was 23 which is factually incorrect. There are two different conversations happening right now it seems.

Okay, Taylor was 23 dating Harry styles who was 18. Is that not grooming? That’s a 5 year age gap and she DEFINITELY had a leg up in the music industry. I believe that’s grooming according to what everyone says about her and Jake

No. That’s not grooming. Grooming is not solely age based and this is where being chronically online has warped people’s images on this. Can it be grooming? Absolutely. But Harry was in the exact same line light as Taylor was at that age. Honestly even bigger probably given it was the height of one direction and he was already dating older women.

Taylor dated older men before Jake so I’m still not seeing a difference. Just because Harry is popular at 18, does not mean anything. If Taylor didn’t like what happened to her, she shouldn’t have done it to someone else.

What does Taylor dating older man* before Jake have to do with anything? She dated John. That was one older guy. You are acting like you have a full insight into what happened in their relationship. You don’t. You do not know these people. Taylor has been very open in her songs about how much she was groomed from a young age. What are we not understanding?

That’s not what I said??? How is Taylor, someone who was in his age range, handling fame the same way he was, had mutual friends, within the same age range, etc, grooming him? Please give me reasons how that doesn’t not include age. Just because you are older does NOT mean you are grooming someone. Is it weird? Sure. Can it BE grooming? Absolutely. Is it always? No. Are you purposefully misunderstanding me?

18 and 23 are not the same age range. That’s 5 years apart! They wouldn’t even be in college together

Again. You are relying solely on age here in regards to grooming. I was 18 and dated someone who was 23 but we were already friends. Is that grooming? No it was a healthy relationship, and both our parents showed no concern over it. Do you see how the context of the relationship so important here?

This is just the wrong line.. “give me back my GIRLHOOD” is different from “give me back my childhood”
