-why being a larrie is harmful
1. fetishising

i know many people say they aren’t fetishising/sexualising them, but forcing a sexuality and a whole narrative onto a straight man and a man who is unlabelled but his friend is fetishising. you’re feeding into the belief that two men cannot be close without
dating. along with romanticising the struggle of being in the closet, invalidating millions of lgbt people in the closet. hoarding ‘proof’ that they’re together, constantly asking about it, sharing ‘proof’ amongst eachother; say they were together, do you have no shame in
outing people and creating theories that could potentially harm them? another thing, the whole top and bottom thing. you are fetishising, sexualising and romanticising mlm on the daily without realising it.
2. ‘damage control’

calling someone’s relationships and breaks ups ‘damage control’ is so harmful and insensitive. louis has constantly stated that he is straight and happy with eleanor and you constantly ignoring that and calling every one of his statements about it
fake is beyond disrespectful to him. saying el is damage control is not only disrespecting her as a person, but also disrespecting her relationship with louis. the same goes for harrys exes. both harry and louis have stated they are not together. respect that, not everything they
say is to protect some dumb fake relationship.
3. stereotypes

saying things such as “louis has a limp wrist, hes gay!” “harry is soft and fem, hes a bottom!”, is feeding into harmful stereotypes of gay men. saying these things is blatant homophobia, and i know you rebuttal this by saying “but we’re shipping men, i’m not
homophobic!”, yet then you CONTINUE to stereotype and fetishise mlm as if it’s nothing. louis and harry are REAL PEOPLE. stop invading their lives and r e a l relationships.
