Except Taylor's still doing it. See: Bad Blood, Katy Perry. Taylor only pulls out the "women bashing women" thing when she thinks someone is being meeean to her and then suddenly we must all be bestest friends. She's a hypocrite who can't handle being told anything even slightly negative and immediately plays the victim card whenever she's called out on it.

Bad Blood isn't a sexist or woman bashing song. It's a song about having anger towards another woman. There's a difference. Pretty much every woman alive has felt wronged by and has fought with another women at some point, and there's nothing wrong or anti-feminist with writing a song about that experience. Now if Taylor had called Katy a slut/whore/bitch/cunt, or made digs at her desirability to men in order to get at her, or implied that she was only succeeding in music because of her looks (like Nicki underhandedly did to Taylor), THAT would have been un-feminist and sexist.

Better Than Revenge, off of Taylor's third album, is a good example of what an un-feminist song looks like. However, as someone has already pointed out: people grow and change and develop, and I think it's ludicrous to continue calling Taylor Swift a hypocrite and declaring she can't be a feminist, because of a song she wrote when she was eighteen years old and which she no longer promotes.

And don't even get me started on how LUDICROUS it is that people continue to support Nicki Minaj as a feminist, of all people, when her songs consistently spout some of the most misogynist drivel I've heard from a female musician in a long while.

I gotta agree on this. I've heard Bad Blood multiple times in the last week.

You wouldn't know if a song is a bout a man or a woman just by the words. It's just about a person who betrayed her.

Hell, my Dad asked me "which boyfriend is this about?" when it came on the radio. He didn't even know it was about a girl.
