We’ll see!

and from what she spills in the interview — and in true Taylor fashion, it is all shrouded in enigmatic clues and hints — it sounds like she’s about to have her very own Beyoncé “If I Were a Boy” moment.which will likely be a mix of tearjerking ballads and major bops. One of the songs on the album is called “The Man,” and Taylor says it “plays with the idea of perception.” It’s an introspective “synth-pop” song about how Taylor and her career would be seen if she were a man.

“It’s a thought experiment of sorts: ‘If I had made all the same choices, all the same mistakes, all the same accomplishments, how would it read?’” she toldAccording to the reporter, who was lucky enough to hear the song, the lyrics read, “I’d be a fearless leader/I’d be an alpha type/When everyone believes ya: What’s that like?” Sure sounds like a sister song to the iconic Bey hit "If I Were a Boy," which similarly touched on gender stereotypes and experiences.

If I Were A Boy talks about cheaters and blah blah. THE MAN talks about sexism and how Taylor's career would be different if she was a man. Stop encouraging the beyhive to come at swifties with their filthy sticky honeyed minds

Teen vogue it's 2019 and you still love pitting women against each other Grow tf up

We don’t compare successful women in this house thank you. Beyonce is an icon and Taylor is an icon case closed

you need to do better

fans who taylor swift invited to her house and played the song for disagree but ok

Damn... I thought we were done with clickbait and pitting women against each other in 2019?

At this point yall are just begging for attention

Obviously I have to wait for the song to come out before I make any conclusions but from what we know, “If I Were a Boy” is about fuckboys & “The Man” is about taylorswift13 ‘s career is she was a man... not the same.

This is why Taylor wrote the song in the first place ... thank you for proving her point.

Dude, Teen Vogue... what if you taught teen girls to... idk, NOT compare themselves to each other? Calling out sexism in the industry through art is not a new concept. Let their art speak for their individual selves and the realities they live. Do better next time.

and this is why VOGUE remains superior to teen vogue

We all got crowns! Like even after the smash hit screaming, u guys still don't get it. This is just disappointing. JUST DONT COMPARE ARTISTS IN A CONDESCENDING WAY

Stop trying to compare female artists. Both of them deserve better

Isn’t Beyoncé’s a cover

Don’t start this bullshit!

Are yall kidding me

you can't even write a good article

Well, not only does Beyonce have the right to talk about men, Taylor too, she can talk about men. Because when the queens get together, the whole world will hear them. To change the mistreatment of women, Taylor did the right thing to change the bad concept

nobody's even heard it yet and journalists are like this lmfaoooo

delete this bs

teen vogue=pitchfork=complex=stan hardcore b.....e'.........no surprise

d e l e t e this bs

I see trying to stir some drama there Teen Vogue take several seats and stop this bs

Wow teen Vogue must have heard that song or is it an assumption they should have kept to themselves.... Sigh

Also, if more than one female musician is telling you that the way you (the media) treat female artists is unacceptable, biased and sexist, maybe the response should be to LISTEN TO THEM Rather than continuing to compare them constantly

if your wondering who the write is, its myfakeyelashes

And I see you over there on the Internet, comparing all the girls that are killin it, but I figured you out, we all know now, we all got crowns, YOU NEED TO CALM DOWN ✨

And here we are again! They never heard the song and they already wrote the clickbait plot. Also, continually pitting successful women against one another is sexist and a poor example to your young readers. Shame!!

Beyoncé didn’t even write that song, tho. Also: stop comparing women.

Wow. Teen vogue putting 2 successful women against each other. YouNeedToCalmDown

it's a song. you hear 🤡

Bullshit

Stop with this BS

ohhhh were u invited to a ss to hear it as well maybe take it from the people who have actually HEARD the song... stop comparing incredible women and celebrate them instead

Just don’t

please do better teen vogue!

beyonce didnt even write the song

How in the fu*k would you know anyway? Quit trying to stir things up

As TEEN vogue you need to stop teaching young adults to compare women and pin them against each other. You’re creating a horrible environment.

So you listened to it?

The song isn't even out yet and from what we know The Man is about her career whereas If I Were A Boy is more of a love song. Stop with clickbaity headlines that give hatefuel to the Beyhive.

Oh, God. Delete, please.

Have you all heard this song yet? This is a wreck less headline.
