So another "evolution of Harry Styles" graphic was posted on @evolutionof Twitter and it's cute AF:

And in the replies:

But no, tell is again how DELUSIONAL we are for saying the FL cover is a trans flag. 🙄🙄

I’m curious on your take of harry misgendering a fan who used they/them pronouns and asked “what is that?”

i've had this brought up to me so many times so i decided to go hunt down the video myself and ended up at the fhc 🥴🥴 so you're welcome for this

i think harry made an honest mistake that lead to a fan being misgendered which i'm sure was an extremely uncomfortable/hurtful experience for them. i don’t know if he just at that time didn’t completely understand the concept of preferred pronouns, or if he had a difficult time correcting himself once he had already made that assumption of their identity. either way, it was a terrible error on his part and i’m sure he has since then become more educated on this subject.

but this incident is one of the reasons why i fight so hard for you all to understand that what i say about harry's gender is bigger than harry. this is why i constantly bring up the real life implications of calling someone cis without knowing that that's how they identify. when you assume someone's gender, you've already decided how they identify, and it's very difficult to break that once you've done it.

trans people are absolutely capable of misgendering others too. even though we understand our own struggle or relationship with gender, it's really hard to know someone else's without them telling you, and if we don't make our own changes in reworking how cisnormativity and binary gender have shaped our views of others, we're still using the same identifiers of gender that we were raised to see as perceived cis bodies.

my roommate knows that i'm non-binary. we've been close friends for a decade, and i've only just this year come out to her. we have conversations about gender identities and she's extremely open and accepting. but one of her favorite artists is sam smith. and it's constant moments of educating herself and slipping up and referring to them with their pronouns assigned at birth. but she also does her best to use they/them and corrects herself when she messes up.

in order to be more inclusive and avoid misgendering people, we have to drop how we've been raised to view gender. we have to stop attaching people's gender to their physical appearance. we have to view human bodies as neutrally as we can when possible. because misgendering will still happen, whether in your head or out loud, but it's so much easier to make that switch in your mind and do it so naturally when you learn that not every person who can be perceived as their assigned gender indentifies as their assigned gender.

For any of you who are writing ‘across the pond’-here is a little guide I put together of some common differences between British and American English!

AU: Harry knew by the time he walked into the tattoo shop and saw the man whose face could leave any greek god to dust that he would make a fool of himself sooner or later. He didn’t expect it to come when Louis, the tattoo artist, praised him though.

or the one where Harry goes to get a tattoo at Louis’ shop and embarrasses himself after Louis calling him a “good boy” for handling the pain better than expected. (insp)

“IwannameetHarryStyles,” Daisy mumbles, and Louis blinks.

“What?”

“She says she wants to meet Harry Styles.” Phoebe pipes up, and Louis blinks again, absently switches the camera to himself because he knows that his followers will want to catch his baffled expression.

“You-” he starts, and then stops himself, because he did tell her she could ask for anything she wanted, and how can he go back on his word and tell her that he doesn’t actually have the power to make that happen?

Because Harry Styles is -- he’s next level kind of famous. Louis has two million subscribers on his YouTube, but Harry has eighteen times as many followers on his Twitter alone. He’s had three number one hits in the last year, and his last album had charted at the top spot for a record breaking 27 weeks. He’s a singer, actor and philanthropist, and there is no way in hell that Louis can get him to come meet Daisy for Christmas.

So of course he laughs, even if it’s a little bit breathless, and nods at her. “One Harry Styles for Christmas, coming right up.”

Room for your love underneath this tree. Coming december 1st to the @1dchristmasfest
