Tennis Legend Martina Navratilova He was one of the people who blasted a columnist’s article criticizing pop star Taylor Swift and dismissing the idea that she was a role model.
“Taylor Swift John McGillion published a column in Newsweek magazine on Thursday titled “Swift Is Not a Good Role Model,” pointing out that Swift is 34 and “unmarried and childless,” despite having had multiple relationships.
“This revolving door of relationships may reflect the normal dating experience of many young women in today’s world, but it also raises questions about stability, commitment and even love itself,” Works I’ve read“Should we encourage young girls to see the ‘Swift Standard’ as the norm, something to aspire to? Or should we encourage something a little more wholesome? Would any loving parent reading this want their daughter to date 12 men in just a few years? This is not an attack on Swift, but a legitimate question worth asking.”
While men should be better role models for their children, “the same can be said for young women,” the author argued.
Navratilova was among those who criticized the article.
“A load of misogynistic drivel… this guy should be ashamed of himself. I can’t believe he wrote an article in Newsweek… and then published it. I mean…” she wrote to X.
Some people denounced the column as “sexist.”
Swift is Travis Kelce since last summerThe relationship became official when she showed up to a Kansas City Chiefs game in September.
Since then, the pair have been a talking point in sports and pop culture circles: Swift was there to support Kelsey when she won her third Super Bowl, and Kelsey has accompanied Swift on her international concert tours.
The pair seem to be extremely happy together, and Swift even helped create a new group of Chiefs fans last year.
