Taylor Swift fans were left raging this week when someone shared a list of her ‘ex-boyfriends’ online.
Taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, one user shared a screenshot of a web search of the singer’s former flames, which included Jake Gyllenhaal, Calvin Harris, Taylor Lautner, and Joe Jonas.
Underneath the names, web users had the option to click through to ’20 more’ which prompted the X user to ask: ‘This not crazy?’ seemingly referring to the amount of men that Taylor – who is currently loved up with Travis Kelce – has dated.
Many people were not impressed with the man’s scathing comment as one person reposted it and wrote: ‘WHO CAREEESSSSS WHO THE F**K CARES WHO THE F**K CARES GO AWAYYYYYYYY SHUT UP.’
They then added: ‘I don’t even like Taylor Swift but posts like this fill me with an indescribable rage OH MY GOD.’
In response to the ‘crazy’ question, another person said: ‘No, not at all. I’m not a Swiftie, either.’
A third person wrote: ‘She’s 35. Imagine having your dating life publicly displayed. Sure, she’s a celebrity and that’s the price she pays, but to imply that this is crazy, is sexist.
‘Find it ironic that people are calling a wh**e – yet majority of the men here have a body count way higher,’ they added.

A fourth person commented on the post: ‘Considering a lot of these were just a few dates that were caught by paparazzi that didn’t amount to anything – no.’
And a fifth X user pointed out: ‘Most people have that much, we just don’t know them lol.’
Another wrote: ‘I’m not a Swiftie but who cares? A man does it, he’s a player but a female does it and it’s an issue? (Lol okay okay, here we go with the comments and idc).’
‘Crazy for who? Why is it your business? Tell us how many you’ve had so we can be nosey,’ someone else fumed.
Another person claimed: ‘Why do y’all love to lie so much lmao? Google lists are incorrect and the actual list shows people repeated or people she’s never dated at all.’
And someone else said: ‘People go on dates – you can’t expect to meet a potential partner without going on dates.
‘The average woman dates seven men before meeting someone serious – her six-year relationship ended so she had to start over. Not sure why anyone pretends this isn’t normal,’ they added.
And another pointed out: ‘In a good way, it totally inspired her music. It’s a win-win!’
Many people were quick to defend Taylor on X as one person said the comment filled them with ‘rage’
One person pointed out that the reaction would be different if it was a man’s dating history
Someone else claimed that some of the ‘relationships’ was just Taylor going on ‘a few dates’
