'And they would toast to me, oh, let the players play...'
But Taylor, like many female and femme folks, knows that men get a lot of the shine and more than a few passes from society for living their lives however they please. The Leo call-out may be the most blatant dig in "The Man," but other lyrics in the song help illustrate this point. Taylor's love life has been a source of contention and scrutiny for as long as she's been a celebrity.
Another lyric that hits so, so hard is part of the second verse. Here, Taylor points out how women are frequently judged on an all-or-nothing basis: "What I was wearing, if I was rude / Could all be separated from my good ideas and power moves." Taylor points out that unlike women, men get the benefit of being treated in a more compartmentalized way; how they act doesn't always reflect on the quality or perception of their work.
"The Man" gives women permission to keep challenging sexist double standards, and fans are here for it. Reactions have been positive to the song on Twitter, with fans showing tons of love for the Leo call-out. "The Man" might just be the next great T-Swift anthem for female fans everywhere.
