Here’s something that has been bugging me a bit recently‚ the idea that Taylor Swift is anti-feminist or that her songs present femininity in a negative light and she’s doing more harm than good.

An Ironic Twist of the American Dream The American dream was first expressed by James Truslow in 1931‚ "life should be better and richer and fuller for everyone‚ with opportunity for each according to ability or achievement". The American dream is never fully accomplished because all good things have to come to an end at one point or another as it does in The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald.
