where can I view more references regarding harry meeting louis while brushing his teeth/ in the bathroom? I know this has been something passed around regarding larry for awhile but I cant seem to find what it traces back to or when harry/louis mention it

Hi dear,

So Harry says that he and Louis "met in the toilet", so we know that bit is true. This xfactor timeline puts that date as July 21 2010.

I don't have the video of Harry saying that atm, but here is a gif of it. This post also does a great job of summarizing the whole thing.

There are tons of videos of Harry brushing his teeth before performing on stage, so that is another possibility of how/why they met in the toilet. And of course, the line in Sunflower vol 6,

mouthful of toothpaste before I got to know you

which can be a reference to those early days in the xfactor when they were still getting to know each other, but were living together and possibly brushing their teeth together in the same shared bathroom. It can also be a reference to the first time they met, and Harry could have been brushing his teeth then.

We won't ever know for sure, but either theory works imo. And I think the bottom line is Harry's reference in his lyrics - they were getting to know each other and living together at the same time, but they fell for each other pretty instantly. So picture these teenagers who are absolutely into each other, flirting, having all these new experiences. One of which is living in the same "dorm/flat" as your crush, and you get to have a moment every night of going in the bathroom and brushing your teeth together. I think it perfectly encompasses that lyric in Sunflower vol 6.

Harry sings:

Sunflower, My eyes, want you more than a melody, Let me inside, Wish I could get to know you

all of that speaks to that feeling of knowing you're falling in love, of being so into someone you want them more than anything.

Then he sings:

Wondering headshake Tired eyes are the death of me Mouthful of toothpaste Before I got to know you

Which again can be linked to them living together at the xfactor house, and he talks about Louis' "tired eyes", which can reference waking up together or how his eyes often look like. As well as the toothpaste line, which I discussed above.

I know there are posts out there about this, so if anyone wants to link me or send me the links please do!

oh my gosh. PLEASE tell me you have seen polaripolari 's instagram the last few days. They have posted FOUR pictures of louis and have mentioned news coming in the last two days!!!! If you look up polari on google, the first picture that shows up is a rainbow emblem with "friends of dorothy" at the bottom. Wikepedia describes its usage as "From the 19th century on, Polari was used in London fishmarkets, the theatre, fairgrounds, and circuses, hence the many borrowings from Romani.[9] As many homosexual men worked in theatrical entertainment it was also used among the gay subculture, at a time when homosexual activity was illegal, to disguise homosexuals from hostile outsiders and undercover policemen. It was also used extensively in the British Merchant Navy, where many gay men joined ocean liners and cruise ships as waiters, stewards, and entertainers.[10] "

FISHMARKETS? CIRCUSES? THEATURE? SOUND FAMILIAR AKA ADORE YOU, HARRYWEEN N2, ECT. OR AM I TOO EXCITED RIGHT NOW?!

Hi dear,

All of this is super exciting. It's all part of gay culture. I have this post about Polari, highly recommend reading it!

All of the symbolism that Harry uses has many roots in gay culture, we've seen that a lot throughout the years. Especially British gay culture. The same goes for Louis.

"Friend of Dorothy" is slang for "gay man", so I'm not surprised to see that in a poster for a Polari campaign. Polari was used as a way for gay men to communicate somewhat freely and avoid exposing themselves. It allowed them to identify other gay men in a time when being gay was a crime that put many in the community in jail.

I highly recommend reading more on it, there's a rich history to queer British culture, which includes Polari.

Queer signaling has always been at the core of the LGBTQ+ community, and it happens in many different forms, be it through the use of a secret gay language (Polari), code words (friend of Dorothy), symbolism (green carnation, pink triangle, and COUNTLESS more), vocabulary, colors etc etc...the list goes on.

It still remains to be seen whether the brand is teasing something new with Louis or they're just using their last campaign to garner publicity - but regardless, I like to see that they're back and would be soooo happy if Louis was involved again.
