  I was worried for years that I would be judged for showing my Swiftie side, and I can’t be happy enough that I just threw that away years ago. Life gets a lot more fun when you stop judging others for what they like, and open up to enjoying things yourself.

  Still, some people see us having fun and decide that we’re weird and downvote away. Don’t care. Am a straight man, saw Eras last year, had a blast, excited to watch it at home, and would go see her again. (If tickets were ever available again lol)

    Listen, my wife is in the army. Every man - I mean every last one - in her whole platoon is a Swiftie. These are jacked up dudes who blow shit up for a living. All of them fucking love Taytay.

      One of the biggest moments I remember is me saying something stupid to a mentor, something like “Oh that’s weird that you like X, I thought men don’t like X”, and he said “Real men don’t care”. Stuck with me.

      To the downvoters who keep looking, real men judge others based on music choice. Real men don’t care. Doesn’t mean you have to like her, just, who cares that we do

  We do have joy this whole thing just wears thin.

        Constructive disagreement is always welcome. Angry downvotes with no backing discussion are bad for the community.

    Sure, but when people downvote this post because they don’t like it, it makes it less visible and discoverable for people who do, overall decreasing the value of this community.

        That’s great for people coming to the community, but it buries it in “hot” and “top last x”.
