I think she can be immature, petty, and self-involved—and I also have a high opinion of her as a person. I guess I don't weight consistent maturity and selflessness as the end-all-be-all of what makes a person good or admirable. There is a point where immaturity and selfishness become an issue for me, but Taylor definitely hasn't reached that point.

I also think that she comes across as distinctly more immature, petty, and self-involved than she actually is, because our primary exposure to her is through her music. And her music is where she expresses her messiest feelings, without worrying too much about whether she's being suitably mature, magnanimous, or objective.

When you look at her behavior outside of her music, she's professional to a fault. She has exceptional business savvy and the level-headedness to use it. She donates to progressive and humanitarian causes, gives uncommonly large bonuses to her crew, does all sorts of kind things for her fans. She is well-spoken in interviews, and very rarely messy on social media, and on the rare occasion where she has misstepped on social media, she's made a point of apologizing and making amends.

I definitely agree that you can like her music and not her as a person, and that's perfectly valid.

Good points. I like her just fine as a person, but I only like...the pop hits of Taylor Swift. The more singer-songwriter sorts of albums are just so boring to me when I can listen to other artists with more to say that I'm interested in, like, IDK, Tracy Chapman or Joni Mitchell.
