An American conservative man endured Swifties’ wrath after writing an opposite the editorial page (op-ed) slamming Taylor Swift. After arguing that the pop star wasn’t a good role model as a result of publicly dating different men, the writer sparked accusations of misogyny.
In an op-ed entitled Taylor Swift Is Not a Good Role Model, published in Newsweek on Thursday (June 27), essayist John Mac Ghlionn highlighted the 34-year-old singer’s age, in addition to her being “unmarried” and “childless.”
John pushed back against claims Taylor was a role model, insinuating that the songstress wasn’t, as his definition of a role model would suggest “someone worthy of imitation.”
