Abstract :
The researcher focuses on how Taylor Swift?s The Man represents gender inequality. The concept of gender inequality within liberal feminism addresses the unequal treatment and opportunities afforded to individuals based on their gender. It highlights the need for systemic change to create a more equitable society. This song is a primary example of inequality and how a public figure like Taylor Swift uses her platform to raise awareness. The study used Taylor Swift's song The Man as the primary data source, complemented by her documentary, interviews, and articles. The study has two main objectives: firstly, to analyze how gender inequality is represented in The Man, and secondly, to explore how the song reflects Taylor Swift's personal experiences. Liberal feminism theory examines the first objective, and biographical theories are used for the second. The results of this study indicate that in the song The Man, nearly every lyric addresses the gender inequality that many women continue to face, including equal liberty and rights in politics and economics. Swift illustrates how men and women are judged differently for the same behaviors and achievements. Additionally, the song emerged from her frustration with how the media constantly commented on her personal life, her problem with Scooter Braun and Kanye West, and her sexual assault. Her lyrics reflect her struggles and resonate with a broader audience of women who face similar challenges in various aspects of their lives. Throughout her musical career, Swift continues to use her platform to address critical social issues and inspire change.
