A recent Op-ed questioning Taylor Swift’s sexuality has received extreme backlash from fans and the singer’s close associates.

Taylor Swift is undoubtedly one of the most popular musical artists the world has ever seen. The level of success and the accomplishments that she has achieved over her illustrious career at only 34 is astounding. The previous year proved to be her most creatively and artistically fulfilling year to date as her 10th album and her Eras tour film were huge successes over the world.

Popularity and success often come with their detractors as there have been several naysayers and haters of Swift who have tried to pull her down through various accusations. The recent New York Times op-ed about Swift secretively being queer has enraged her fans and even people close to Swift who have now responded to the op-ed.

Sources Close to Taylor Swift Criticizes Op-Ed That Questioned Her Sexuality

The NY Times’s recent article questioning the singer’s sexuality received backlash from fans

The New York Times recently published an Op-Ed which chronicled that Taylor Swift has secretly been indicating her queerness through her lyrics and music over the years. The lengthy piece on the outlet points out that Swift is a part of the queer community and this questioning of the artist’s sexuality has angered fans and even people close to the singer.

As CNN reports, a source close to the singer criticized the op-ed for being self-indulgent and crossing all kinds of boundaries in the name of journalism. The source also pointed out the sexist nature of the op-ed and pointed out that such direct accusations wouldn’t have been written if it were a male artist. The source said,

“Because of her massive success, at this moment there is a Taylor-shaped hole in people’s ethics. This article wouldn’t have been allowed to be written about Shawn Mendes or any male artist whose sexuality has been questioned by fans.

There seems to be no boundary some journalists won’t cross when writing about Taylor, regardless of how invasive, untrue, and inappropriate it is – all under the protective veil of an ‘opinion piece,’”

Such opinionated articles that are not based on fact but rather on assumptions can negatively impact an artist’s reputation and the public outrage over it is understandable. Targeting a highly popular celebrity in such a way is unethical and disrespectful to the legacy of the artist.

The source also claimed that both families of the duo have been supportive and are happy for both of them. Swift and Kelce’s relationship has been growing stronger with time and they are making the most of their time together. The source said,
“They love being together no matter what they’re doing and appreciate the little things in life. They try to lead as normal lives as possible as a couple and are enjoying the upswing and growth in their relationship.

“Their families are both on board and everyone on Travis’ side loves Taylor and vice versa. It’s a supportive dynamic all around. Their loved ones have never seen either of them so happy and hope and believe that it will continue,”

Swift has been supporting Kelce at all his games and Kelce has also been supportive of the artist’s musical ventures. Marriage might be in the cards but both are very busy at the moment with their careers and may give their relationship more time to grow to arrive at such an important decision.
