Taylor Swift op-ed writer is SLAMMED after claiming the popstar is ‘not a good role model’ because she is ’34, unmarried and childless’

Taylor Swift has plenty of songs about feminism – and her ‘f*** the patriarchy’ attitude appears to have struck a nerve with a conservative journalist.

John Mac Ghlionn was slammed for his article accusing Swift – whose Eras Tour is the highest-grossing concert tour of all time – of being a bad influence on young girls.

In the Newsweek piece titled Taylor Swift Is Not a Good Role Model, Ghilonn claimed the songstress was setting a poor example as she’s ’34, unmarried and childless’ – failing to call out her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, for being the same.

The op-ed writer penned the piece last week to ‘offer some pushback’ on the Taylor-mania that has swept the globe – and has been swiftly ridiculed for his ‘1950s misogynistic’ views.

In his piece, he claimed despite the popstar’s ‘talent for sparking conversations, driving engagement, and raking in profits is commendable,’ she is not a good role model for young girls.
