For your anon who was concerned Harry coming out would somehow undermine the work he has put in for gender fluidity, trust me it won’t. An out gay man being a beloved, accepted, influential figure in pop culture has more power than a possibly cishet man embracing things that are considered “gay”. The reason is that much of the stigma against men in dresses comes from homophobia. The rhetoric needs to be “it’s okay if people think you might be gay” and not “you don’t have to be gay to wear a dress” because the later doesn’t dismantle the underlying homophobia. When he comes out, Harry will be gay, wearing dresses, and still considered incredibly attractive by cishet women. That sets the example to cishet men that they do not need to rigidly conform to gender roles to be attractive. And even if Harry was no longer considered attractive by his het fanbase, his choice to assert that a mainstream pop star can wear dresses at the height of his career if he wants to is still impactful for queer rights and the future of pop culture. He is different from his predecessors because of how mainstream he is. Coming out wont undermine the impact he has already had. It only opens up new doors for the future.

This is so important, beautifully said <3 Thank you!!
I’ve not been around in this fandom for so long so I had no idea Jamaica was such an important place for them...
(Also I totally stole this and found this somewhere on google and I can’t find it again so I’m sorry to the person I stole it from who made that Jamaica thread)
i think the way louis markets himself is SO interesting, because its so different from every other popular artist out there. in hollywood its basically a given that if you want to become a big star you will have to be sexualized out the wazoo (besides some exceptions) but for louis thats almost nonexistent. none of his songs are about sex, nothing is racy or revealing or raunchy, i think the farthest he goes is talking about kissing. in all of his photoshoots its very much almost proving a point to show no skin at all, with high collars, long pants, long sleeves, etc and lots of big powerful stances and searing eye contact. you dont even see the media sexualizing him either, there are no articles talking about how sexy he is or talking about how his latest music video was about certain sexual acts. i know thats probably due to a lot of factors but i just think its so wild to think about how anti-sexualized louis is in every aspect of his life. his songs, his fashion, even his fans dont interact with him the way we see het harries do. have you ever heard of a het louie that goes as far as harries do? no way man. i just think about this a lot.

Personal attack right there 😂
Are you taken?
as a fucking joke, absolutely
OBVIOUSLY!!!!!
literally the funniest thing to ever happen in this fandom is someone coming up with a very definitely green drink that combined orange and blue components to make green… and calling it The Blue Direction
guess Blue’s direction… orientation if you will… is Green
Harry's whiny looouuu and louis telling harry he can't kiss him now in the brazil bread van
They’re the absolute worst. Can you imagine having to put up with them on tour? 😅😅😅
hey! if youre in the uk, theres an active government petition to get non-binary recognised as a legal gender, and to have non-binary recognised as a valid transgender identity.
it currently has less than half the signatures it needs to for the government to respond, and though the deadline to get them is in october, i don't know if we can leave things to chance.
please, please sign it if you are a uk resident. this is personally important to me and im sure to many other non-binary individuals here. if you don't live in the uk, reblogs to spread this are so appreciated.
