Taylor Swift has laid into Netflix bosses and writers behind TV show Ginny & Georgia for including a “deeply sexist” joke about her love life in the season one finale.<\/p>\n

The pop superstar’s fans initially took issue with the throwaway line on Sunday night after viewing episode 10 of the comedy-drama, which focuses on the life of a mixed-race teenager and her young mother in a fictional New England town.<\/p>\n

The instalment in question was written by creator Sarah Lampert and Debra J. Fisher, and featured the mother and daughter arguing about relationships, as 15-year-old Ginny quipped: “What do you care? You go through men faster than Taylor Swift.”<\/p>\n

The backlash was immediate as the singer’s devotees took to social media and turned “#RespectTaylor” into a trending topic, and the Shake It Off hitmaker herself has now weighed in on the controversy, making it clear she wasn’t laughing.<\/p>\n

“Hey Ginny & Georgia, 2010 called and it wants its lazy, deeply sexist joke back,” Taylor tweeted on Monday. <\/p>\n

“How about we stop degrading hard working women by defining this horse s**t as fuNny (sic),” she went on.<\/p>\n

Swift then turned on Netflix officials, with whom she had worked for her hit 2020 documentary, Miss Americana.<\/p>\n

“Also, (Netflix) after Miss Americana this outfit doesn’t look cute on you,” she added, alongside an emoji of a broken heart, fuming: “Happy Women’s History Month I guess.”<\/p>\n

Representatives for Netflix or the Ginny & Georgia writers have yet to comment on the uproar.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
