Taylor Swift’s comeback tweet
in a tweet from Monday US time, Taylor Swift didn’t even hesitate to mention the Twitter account of Netflix, followed by an intense call out regarding the platform’s misogynistic joke in the series ‘Ginny and Georgia’.
— Taylor Swift (@taylorswift13) March 1, 2021 Taylor Swift herself has brought up the topic so many times. In her documentary ‘Miss Americana’, she relished her thoughts on ongoing misogyny that sticks to her reputation throughout her career. She claimed that her love life is her own private business and therefore no one should mock her decisions in her life. She also stated that there are different treatments by the mass mainstream media and people about women’s dating life and men’s dating life. Netflix’s previous 2020 documentary ‘Miss Americana’ covers Taylor Swift’s unfiltered thoughts on blatant misogyny and overall the journey of her musical career spanning from 2007 to 2020. From the country girl era to the independent reel woman era that she seems to be fitting in right now. This adds to the many reasons why fans are disappointed with Netflix’s decision to put such degrading comments on Swift via their new series. Read:

You switch men faster than Taylor Swift,” said character Ginny to Georgia.
