What does she mean by her friends smell like little babies?
Also, what do you guys think about the weed references in music these days. Even Kelly Clarkson has a line about it. I know it's normal. That not my issue. But why is everyone mentioning it in their songs?

That not my issue. But why is everyone mentioning it in their songs? It’s a reference to all her friends either smoking weed or having children. While she’s sort of in between. It’s to show that her friends are in different life stages than her, most of them married with kids already, while she’s still searching for that. I bet more artists mention weed in songs now because it wasn’t as socially acceptable before due to being illegal in most places. But now that it’s legalized it isn’t as taboo.

Yeah, I find it a little try hard for popstars though since most times it's just something they want you to know they do and nothing to do with the song. It applies well in Taylor's though with what Katy said lol

Ohh in the US, its extermely common for people in HS and College to do weed and drink lots of alcohol. I noticed a trend with firneds and stuff, they love to start drinking at 17/18 (In the US its legal at 21) and when you become 21/22 they stop drinking so much. And in HS so many people vape its crazy I also want to add my sister is a freshman in HS and all kids want to do is drink, and smoke, in HS. Which i think is because the legal age is 21 here, i think they need to lower the age so less kids are sneaking wanting to drink, and just drink i honestly think making the legal age of 21 is more harmful

There are are even dry states where alcohol is banned. Most only start drinking when they move out of their homes. My college was a bit conservative and had religious influence so it was rare for people to drink. There are big colleges especially in Delhi where students start drinking since they move to the city from other places and don’t live with parents anymore. We had a work party once and there were free drinks. One guy got wayyy to drunk. So his boss and an another colleague dropped him off at home and his parents were completely shocked. They started blaming the boss and the colleague for getting him to drink. 🤣. Most parents here never find out their kids have tasted alcohol. It’s also because it’s a religious thing. It’s not an issue among Indian Christians though. They don’t mind alcohol.

HS and College, pretty much almost everyone loves to Party, drink, vape, do drugs, before the age of 21 and honestly i hate it because it consumes them so much and its all they want to do, and i was never into all of that, and i get called lame and not livin g life to the fullest you can, and basically get shut out of everything. It sucks in this culture ngl and my sister is starting to struggle with that too because she isnt a fan of drinkign and feeling peer pressured too it sucks.

It’s interesting to hear what it’s like in different countries & cultures! When I was younger most people started drinking at maybe like 14 - just like out with friends in parks and stuff. Smoking wasn’t really a big thing but weed definitely was. I never did weed but did start drinking with friends most weekends at about 14. I very rarely drink now though, I feel like because most people started drinking quite young the novelty wore off a bit by early/mid twenties. The legal drinking age here is 18 but it’s obviously incredibly easy to get alcohol way before that - or at least it was then. 21 is just wild to me lol. I remember going to Vegas when I was 20 so couldn’t drink, which was very annoying because I’d been able to legally drink back home for a couple of years by then weed seems more common in 30-somethings now than younger people. But that may just be because I’m a 30-something now so know more about what they’re doing than what kids are doing haha. It’s definitely mentioned in mainstream music a lot more casually now, by older artists than I’d typically expect (Taylor for example) @lbs2022 good on you and your sister for sticking with how you feel about it and not getting pressured. I did drink when I was too young but never gave into the pressure around weed, set your boundaries and stick to it - it’s your life and body at the end of the day

I can relate to that line from Taylor but I think about the weed line a little different since I can’t relate to people around me doing weed, only a friend of my boyfriend smokes weed everyday, he’s very addicted to it but has a family of his own so it’s not like he’s all alone. But mostly my fiends are married and have kids and I’m not married to my boyfriend, we don’t have kids but I feel also somewhere in between…I’m 36 but feel sometimes like I’m 25 because of my mindset. Even if I could have kids I would find myself too young and never ready to start a family, but my life has other plans than being a mother so I don’t think about it often, I just go with the flow. I honestly couldn’t tell if I want kids or not since I’m not thinking about it. So the baby part and weed parts seems 2 different opposites where she feels in between and I feel that way also, but in a slightly different way.
In high school people started smoking and wanted everyone to smoke but I never did, never tasted it either. Since my mom drank too much when I grew up I started drinking very late. I saw the damage it could do and was very against it at the time. I was in my twenties when I started drinking some wine or beer of mix drinks. I believe we may bought alcohol when we were 16, later it became 18 and still is. I can live without it but sometimes it’s the only way I can let loose, tho I get really tired from drinking when I’m not ant a party or such an I end up early in bed lol.
I’m still in the Taylor vibe with the fact that I listen everyday to TTPD. Some songs really grow a lot on you!! I can’t say which place I would rank this album in between her other albums tho, it’s still too early because it’s too new.
