I don't see why not, but I would argue it's not OK for anyone with good musical taste to like Taylor Swift.

Why is she 23 and dating 18-year-olds?

Is this really that much of a gap, relatively speaking?

That's only borderline under half + 7 (23/2 = 11.5 + 7 = 18.5), so it depends on how far into the year the 18 year old is. However it really doesn't matter for her since she's covered by the cougar clause.

I'll be honest and say that I think she's just plain creepy.

A non-leninist left-communist is free to like what he wants.

He's asking whether he should feel guilty for whacking off to her image.

Taylor Swift is blatantly awful, so no.

I would change my display name but I'm waiting until the new pope comes, and by then this will be to obscure.

Is it entirely unproblematic for Leninist left-communists to like Taylor Swift, then?

Be careful about liking her. One misstep and she'll write a crappy song about how terrible you are.

Becoming a cougar at age 23 seems pretty weird to me though (not that the 18-year-old version of me wouldn't have jumped at the chance to go out with a 23-year-old chick of course).

A couple years ago I remember a girl on another forum was who like 27/28 saying she had developed a "cougar crush" on Michael Cera after watching Juno.

Yeah, I feel like the word "cougar" implies passage through a certain stage of life.

No. It's time to embrace your inner bourgeois Taylor Swift fan.

The girl is beautiful and her songs are horrible. I don't know is she is suitable for non-Leninist commies but this is one of the funniest questions that I have read lately. It's a joke, truth? Wink

By the way, I'm not commie though a bit leftist. I must confess that I feel certain predilection for Kylie Minogue. I'll ask my psychiatrist.

There are worse big names in the music industry right now than Swift. There are better, but there are worse.

Nothing wrong with the great Kylie Minogue!
