Does Taylor Swift drink a lot? (no shade)

[Timmers PronounsHe/Him/His]

Has anyone else noticed that T Swizzle really likes drinking? I mean, me too, girl. I'm drinking right now. 

But I've noticed the theme in both Reputation and Lover and thought it was worth discussing. I'm sure she doesn't drink more than most people, but it's referenced in her music a lot more than other pop girls. Am I right? Has anyone else noticed this? 

(Note: I didn't include songs that mention bars without mentioning alcohol/drinking.)

Reputation - Delicate
"We can't make any promises now, can we babe? But you can make me drink."

Reputation - Gorgeous
"You should take it as a compliment that I got drunk and made fun of the way you talk."

Reputation - Getaway Car
"But you weren't thinkin', and I was just drinkin'."

Reputation - King of My Heart
"Up on the roof with a school girl crush, drinking beer out of plastic cups."

Reputation - Dress
"I'm spilling wine in the bathtub."

Reputation - This Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things
"Everyone swimming in a champagne sea."

Reputation - New Year's Eve
"I'll be cleaning up bottles with you"

Lover - Cruel Summer
"I'm drunk in the back of the car."

Lover - Paper Rings
"The wine is cold."

Lover - Cornelia Street
"We were in the backseat, drunk on something stronger than the drinks in the bar."

Lover - Death By A Thousand Cuts
"I get drunk, but it's not enough."

Lover - London Boy
"I enjoy walking SoHo, drinking in the afternoon."

Lover - False God
"Got the wine for you."

Alcoholic or attempt at being cool?

Honestly, considering the stress of her career, I don't think it's just a gimmick. 

Spoiler

And if it is a gimmick, how gross to promote drinking as the cool thing to do.

That was my next point. But I wouldn’t think she would do that. If she is alcoholic I hope she seeks help.

Maybe it's neither. Maybe most of the exciting human experiences in her adult life have just involved bars and drinking lol.

Probably- and good on her! Werk Taylor!

I think she’s just exploring more honest and “explicit” writing as she matures and sheds that good catholic girl image 

[Ryusei Pronounshe/him]

In an article from 2019 (30 things I learned before turning 30) she included: 
I learned how to make some easy cocktails like Pimm’s cups, Aperol spritzes, Old-Fashioneds, and Mojitos because…2016.

So she definitely used alcohol to cope for some amount of time. I guess over time she got over it and just appreciated drinks like any adult who drinks does.

Was 2016 the year of the Kimye smear campaign? Because if so, that makes a lot of sense.

The “I’ve had a little bit too much” chanteuse remains unbothered

Have we seen her actually drink though?

Maybe she's a closet drinker. But based on her lyrics, she usually drinks in the backseat of a car or in a dark corner of a dive bar.

Gotcha! Cause I’m like I never seen her out drinking unlike Gaga and other celebs. Maybe Taylor puts on this good girl facade but she’s lowkey a party girl.

It was like a year or so ago where there were a bunch of pics online of her trashed af and everyone was living for them. Everyone was like “I am drunk taylor” “drunk taylor is so relatable”. It was right around Lover

You probably found this, but heres a vid: 

If I remember correctly this drinking was the night before the People's Choice Awards

[paradox]

I doubt she drinks more than the average person of her age 

[Timmers PronounsHe/Him/His]

I kind of want to drink with Taylor
