"Power Beard" is a term branded to a person who has been dating gay men. Ironically, a Web site report had dubbed Taylor Swift as one given she had a history of dating a number of men who were allegedly gay. The bearded-rumour all began thanks to recent reports that she's been spotted out and about with NFL quarterback Aaron Rodgers.

Rodgers has long been raising eyebrows in the media due to his sexuality. Recent reports suggest that the manly quarterback is actually gay yet his father claims otherwise saying he's engaged to a woman - a Christian at that.

Still, the Web site "The Fame Driven" is insistent on the claims that Rodgers is gay along with a slew of men Taylor Swift had briefly dated in her lifetime.

"Taylor Swift has long been suspected a 'power beard' for the throngs of men she's blown through in the past few years," states the report (via Sugarscape), adding, "Although none of the men Swift has dated have ever come out publicly, gay men have historically wondered about a few of her exes, including Jake Gyllenhaal, Joe Jonas, and Taylor Lautner."

While "The Fame Driven" Web site claims Taylor has been dating gay men, Gig wise claims the country crooner has instead been turning straight men gay after breaking up with her.

"The only redeeming quality of any boy band these days is betting on which one is going to date Taylor Swift, and as a result, come out of the closet 2 months later," claims the report.

Was this an indirect diss at Harry Styles of One Direction who is constantly in the news regarding his sexuality? Well, gay or not, fans of Taylor Swift would certainly have something to say about the rumours. As for the "Red" singer, she's obviously happy single as of the moment.
