Taylor Swift Sounds Off on Women Being 'More Than Incubators'
Taylor Swift is standing up for young women who are tired of being asked when they’re settling down. The superstar — who is celebrated as one of four People of the Year in PEOPLE’s latest issue — shut down a question earlier this year during an interview in which she was asked about marriage and family because of her impending 30th birthday. Sitting down with PEOPLE, the singer explained that women should certainly feel empowered to bat away questions like that in any situation. “The more women are able to voice their discomfort in social situations, the more it becomes the social norm that people who ask the questions at parties like ‘When are you going to start a family?
’ to someone as soon as they turn 25 are a little bit rude,” says Swift. Acknowledging that “it’s gonna take a bit for people to catch up with that,” Swift added that she has started to see a bit of a shift in society. “It’s good that we’re allowed to say, ‘Hey, just so you know, we’re more than incubators. You don’t have to ask that of someone just because they’re in their mid-20s and they’re a female.

” The general idea is to teach women that their only goal is to have children, and it starts at such a young age. Thank you @taylorswift13 for speaking out about this, 💜 https://t. co/PIBlR1T59i — Jennifer (@Hollyfire3) December 5, 2019 “Hey, just so you know, we’re more than incubators. ” Love this message!

But now as she approaches her 30th birthday on Dec.
