this exists for a reason
Okay I’ve finally figured out what it is about her dancing that bothers me. I’ve been thinking about this for YEARS.
I’m a stripper. I’ve been a stripper since age 18. I’m also ex Mormon and left the church around age 13, and then left Utah for the first time at age 18, while still a VERY conservative person.
For the first few years “dancing sexy” felt like a betrayal of my Mormon upbringing. I became obsessed with doing cool pole tricks to avoid being sexy for customers. All the girls kept telling me to “loosen up” because I looked stiff — just like Taylor.
It wasn’t until a group of 6 girls at my first club came together to do a two hour workshop JUST FOR ME. They taught me how to “feel myself” and how to let go of the religious shame and self-slut shaming that kept me so stiff.
I can see that attitude in her performance — this idea that if she goes full sex kitten and FEELS HERSELF that it’ll be a betrayal of her values. You’re already in a skin tight catsuit talking about how you’re gonna tie a dude to the bed and bounce on his dick — why not become the snake in the garden of Eden instead of this stiff, sexless ball of self oppression?
when all of his exes have actually done this but i’m the only one who brought him to court 💅
when all his exes are arguing over who his favourite is but im the only one who insulted his entire family and publicly shamed him by name for being a cheating lying pervert #itsnotme
going to salsa class with a puffy face, no makeup and sweatpants on and the old uncles will still look at u like bell of the ball
that secret 6th stage of the breakup that occurs a year and a half later when he finally pleads guilty in court and you can’t stop listening to that one song by nickelback
go through significant amounts of trauma over the course of multiple years during a critical time when you were just starting to discover your true adult identity all while pursuing your formal education thus leaving you with a confused sense of self and disordered mind
