PREACH IT SISTA Also this>> " ..Ship Donald Trump to Siberia.." <

I love Tom Hiddleston. I love Taylor Swift. Now listen up.

I’m an 18 year old woman with her own opinion that y’all are being incredibly petty and selfish. 

I’ve tried to stay out of this because I can’t handle the stupidity, but I’ve finally had enough. Here are some things you need to consider the next time you’re about to throw a hissy fit over Tom and Taylor.

——

1. First of all, both of these individuals are adults who can do whatever the hell they want. 

GASP. 

I know, shocking right?

2. You do not have the right to condemn Taylor for being a “slut” or a “man hunter”. She is a woman with all the same rights as you. Y’all can’t call yourselves feminists who believe in abortion and Marvel’s need to hire more superhero women and then turn around and do this. It’s hypocritical and wrong. And if you had her talent (and if you want to bitch about her not having talent, check out her Grammys), you would say you could date whoever she wants too.

3. Taylor is a lovely person. I had the great honor and privilege to briefly meet her during her “Red” tour in 2012. I was 14 at the time, and completely in love with her. She made me feel special and loved, and treated me like a little sister. She genuinely loves fans, and does things like surprise them, write inspiring messages to them, write a song about a 4 year old little boy named Ronan who died of cancer, and stand up for women everywhere. Not to mention she isn’t afraid to get out there and be herself.

Sound familiar?

4. You do not have the right to condemn Tom for his “recent behavior”. He has an amazing career so far because of his talent and his hard work. Admire that. And about that photo shoot, you do realize that he didn’t go out and shoot that series right after he started dating Taylor, right? It was during The Night Manager press series. The article was probably typed much closer to release though. The car in NYC? Who the hell cares? Taylor was probably just being nice, and maybe the car happened to be in NYC, maybe not. Does it matter? Also, who the hell cares if he went to a Selena Gomez concert? Selena, like Taylor, is a lovely person and performer, and Tom is probably trying to get to know Taylor’s friends, just like any good boyfriend. They’re having fun. LET THEM HAVE FUN WITHOUT BEING PETTY AND RIDICULOUS.

5. Be happy for them. Relationships in the spotlight are hard enough. Having their own fans turn against them is the last thing they need. 

—–

6. Be considerate. Does nobody remember the fact that Anton Yelchin just passed, that Tom was close to him, and that maybe he’s having a difficult enough time with coping with the loss of his friend without his fans- and the media- being bullshit toward him?

—–

7. 2016 sucks enough without you guys making it worse. We need to be concentrating on LGBT rights and defense, gun laws, gender gap, shipping Trump to Siberia, and other actually important issues. 

——

8. Do critique the headlines. Objectifying Tom and slut-shaming Taylor is ridiculous. The media is insane. So make a difference. Say something about it. Defend Tom, Taylor, or both. If you’re a fan, act like it instead of a toddler throwing a hissy fit. 

—–

9. Be supportive. Taylor just had the biggest tour in like, ever. Tom is about to go to Australia to film Loki. SHOULDN’T WE BE EXCITED ABOUT THAT? 

——

10. If you’re not going to be supportive, or at least silently fuming, or at least respectfully stating your opinion, then shut up. 

——

11. I’m not saying you should love this. It’s like some people love Clintasha and some people like Bruce and Natasha (okay, maybe not, but pretend they do). Some people like Stucky, some people like Cap and Stark. It’s okay if Tom and Taylor aren’t your OTP or the ship you will go down with. However, it is not okay to start overly condemning, accusing, and hyperventilating over something that should not be hyperventilated over.

12. If you’re a real fan of Taylor’s, you will continue to support her.

13. If you’re a real fan of Tom’s, you will continue to support him.

Sierra out.
