In this episode you'll meet your gaylor host, Madyson (they/she), learn how they became a gaylor, what it means to be a part of this community, and why taylor swift being queer matters to them. They break down what it was like to create gaylor content on tik tok, the hate that gaylors get from homophobic swifties, and how connecting and sharing theories with gaylor friends online taught them about their own queerness. Madyson explains how Taylor Swift using historical queer flags, like hairpin drop, in her music has taught mainstream audiences about flagging; One example being how lesbian Youtuber Shannon Beveridge posted a promo for Friend of Dorothy merch explaining what a queer flag is and why we use them, using Dorothea by Taylor Swift as the song playing on the radio. They end the episode by shouting out one of their favorite gaylor creators/theorists/minds, Alice, the creator of Midnights in Wonderland (linked above)! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/iictisat/message
