00:00Can we talk about the 17-year-old who's afraid of Sabrina Carpenter?

00:03This ex-user posted about how she thought Sabrina Carpenter's suggestive dancing at

00:07her tour in front of children was inappropriate, and it quickly became a meme.

00:11She wrote, quote, you guys are disgusting and weird for defending a literal weirdo.

00:15I'm 17 and afraid of Sabrina Carpenter when she's performing.

00:18You guys need help.

00:20She then followed up that message with, quote, you never see Taylor showing herself on stage

00:23like that.

00:24Anyways, Queen Taytay remains Sabrina's ender.

00:28So many thoughts here, but let's start with the fact that Sabrina Carpenter is a full-blown

00:31adult and hasn't pretended to be anything else.

00:34And half the tracks on her album are explicit, so if you listen to the album and you decided

00:38to buy a ticket to her show for either you or your kid, you should know at that point

00:43what you're paying for, and that's on you.

00:46Also these dance moves aren't any more suggestive than what pop stars have been doing for decades,

00:50and that screams of two things.

00:52One, that there really has been a return to a more puritanical view of sensuality among

00:57younger folks that is continuously fascinating.

01:00And two, that we as a culture have not fully evolved from having to attack the latest female

01:03pop star for how she looks and acts on stage.

01:06We did it to Madonna, we did it to Miley Cyrus, and countless others.

01:09Finally, the fact that this Swiftie identified Taylor as Sabrina's ender just completely

01:14misses the mark on their relationship.

01:16Sabrina was Taylor's opener on the A-R-R-I-S tour, the two have been vocally supportive

01:20of one another in interviews and on social media.

01:23So contrary to this teenager's belief, there can be more than one successful blonde

01:27woman in the music industry.

01:29What do you all think about this?

01:30Are you scared of Sabrina Carpenter, or are we just giving another female pop star a hard

01:35time?
