They use the appeals of logos and pathos in the lyrics and the appeals of ethos and pathos in the video to get this message across. In analyzing the lyrics and video, it appears that their use of appeals is effective in convincing their intended audience. ]]> 2021-12-07 16:03:04 UTC https://padlet.com/4006971/98t7swbcgfntrmyo/wish/1933923255 4006971 https://padlet.com/4006971/98t7swbcgfntrmyo/wish/1943517666  I'd be a fearless leader
I'd be an alpha type
 When everyone believes ya
 What's that like?
These lyrics give logic to the fact that men are seen as superior.  It also explains how people are more likely to agree with a men than a women.

And it's all good if you're bad
And it's okay if you're mad
This explains that in the music industry or to the public when a man shows his emotions he is strong.  If a women were to express how she felt she would be seen as too emotional or sensitive.

What I was wearing
If I was rude
These lyrics touch on topic of sexual misconduct, in which Taylor has experienced. The excuses that women hear when they say they have been in this position and people don't believe them. ]]> 2021-12-13 02:23:58 UTC https://padlet.com/4006971/98t7swbcgfntrmyo/wish/1943517666 4006971 https://padlet.com/4006971/98t7swbcgfntrmyo/wish/1943533228 I'm so sick of running as fast as I can
Wondering if I'd get there quicker
If I was a man
In these lyrics Taylor and possibly other musicians wonder how their careers would go if they were men.  Wondering if they would have got to the point of success faster if they were men and everyone saw them "better".

They wouldn't shake their heads
And question how much of this I deserve
In these lyrics Taylor expresses the double standard of working harder for her success. Then being question by others if she thinks she deserves that success, while it is obvious that many believe that she does not.

When looking at the lyrics and the video I think that Taylor is successful in getting this message across. Due to the fact that you can find many examples in both. ]]> 2021-12-13 03:23:13 UTC https://padlet.com/4006971/98t7swbcgfntrmyo/wish/1943601488 4006971 https://padlet.com/4006971/98t7swbcgfntrmyo/wish/1943606585 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AqAJLh9wuZ0]]> 2021-12-13 03:27:13 UTC https://padlet.com/4006971/98t7swbcgfntrmyo/wish/1943606585 4006971 https://padlet.com/4006971/98t7swbcgfntrmyo/wish/1943615298 https://genius.com/Taylor-swift-the-man-lyrics]]> 2021-12-13 03:33:57 UTC https://padlet.com/4006971/98t7swbcgfntrmyo/wish/1943615298 4006971 https://padlet.com/4006971/98t7swbcgfntrmyo/wish/1943620707 “Taylor Swift – the Man.” Genius, 23 Aug. 2019, https://genius.com/Taylor-swift-the-man-lyrics. ]]> 2021-12-13 03:38:02 UTC https://padlet.com/4006971/98t7swbcgfntrmyo/wish/1943620707
