Taylor Swift has expertly shut down an interviewer after being asked a sexist question about her future plans.
The ME! singer, who will turn 30 in December, was asked during a recent interview about whether she'd been thinking about settling down and becoming a mother — and she wasn't impressed.
"I really do not think men are asked that question when they turn 30," she told German outlet Deutsche Presse-Agentur. "So I'm not going to answer that now."
However, Swift — who has been dating actor Joe Alwyn since 2017 — did provide some reflection on the milestone birthday.
"I hear others say … your 30s no longer has as much stress and anxiety in life as in my 20s, and I can join in the observation that we are in our 20s looking to gain experience, try things out, fail, make mistakes," she said.
"And I definitely plan to try and fail things in my 30s as well. But I expect that in our 30s we feel a little better of who we are. The closer I get to it, the more I feel it happens."
It's not the first time Swift has spoken out against sexism within the industry. Earlier this year, the singer wrote a piece for Elle in which she listed 30 life lessons she's picked up so far in honour of her upcoming birthday.
"I've learned that society is constantly sending very loud messages to women that exhibiting the physical signs of ageing is the worst thing that can happen to us," she wrote. "These messages tell women that we aren't allowed to age. It's an impossible standard to meet."
