For those born in the late 90s and early 2000s, chances are they have fallen under Taylor Swift‘s spell. Swift shot to fame during the early 2000s by winning over her young female fan base with upbeat tracks about romance and escapades. A mere 16-year-old with a guitar, she knew how to strike a chord with her audience by crafting tunes they could connect with. Through all the hair flips and musical transitions in Swift’s journey, one element has stood the test of time- her grip on the hearts of young girls.

Recently, this influence has led to a change in the type of men young girls are attracted to. They are now leaning toward guys who are more like Taylor Swift’s boyfriend Travis Kelce.

Taylor Swift influencing young girls’ taste in men

Gen Z girls are making their voices heard on social media by expressing their desire for a rugged, sturdy protector like Taylor Swift’s burly American footballer boyfriend, Travis Kelce, over a slender, trendy type. TikTok is filled with girls explaining why they are joining this trend of selecting strong men like Kelce. Apparently, they are convinced that they are now entering an era where Gen Z now wants those who can offer them protection.

Taylor Swift played a big part in this change by dating Kelce, especially since her past partners like Tom Hiddleston and Matty Healy seemed to be of a different, more artsy genre. Her ex, actor Joe Alwyn, was also three inches shorter than NFL player Kelce and had a leaner build. Now, Swift is making headlines with her romance with the tall, rugged Kelce, who seems to have even found his way into her songs.

Reportedly, Swift has bared her soul for Travis Kelce in her lyrics, and it is not a one-time thing.

Travis Kelce inspired Taylor Swift’s songs

Taylor Swift, the pop sensation, is known for translating her romantic escapades into chart-topping melodies, and her new boyfriend Travis Kelce appears to be quite the inspiration. A source disclosed to US Weekly that Swift has already composed songs about Kelce and she has penned at least two tracks. The tracks are reportedly mainly about their love story and how she fell for him.

The insider stressed that Swift’s songs are very personal, which could have been a hint to the fact that those songs may not be made available to the public. Swift has yet to make any official declarations regarding the tracks. However, Swifties can anticipate further details after the Eras Tour wraps up.
