In better than revenge, the original lyric was:

She's not a saint and she's not what you think
She's an actress, whoa
She's better known for the things that she does
On the mattress, whoa


the new lyrics are

He was a moth to the flame
She was holding the matches, whoa




I liked the original lyrics way more, but she changed it to avoid "slut shaming"

Cool. I love that song bc it rocks hella hard but that was always a bit immature as a lyric, which fit bc she was a kid when she wrote it, but doesn't really fit the image she has now.

but the re-records were for the sake of preservation...teenagers are that petty and talk that way, and the lyric isn't even that bad

I think OP knows about why Taylor is releasing new versions of her old albums but I think he's talking about this song specifically

isn't the change just for the radio edit?

i don't like the change, because she isn't using gay as an insult, she's saying in the context that it would limit the guys dating options

See, she's dated more than 1 perspective, clearly she's a sloot.
