Nice to see someone speaking out against gender pigeonholing without the need for navelgazing woke relabelling: www.distractify.com/p/why-does-harry-style-paint-his-nails?utm_source=dfy&utm_medium=fb&fbclid=IwAR3kxLXpQ0xNCYGQOJeJzSur5org15OKfeBW07o48iN31TtyT28eJRz-hOw

Oh, that's really good to see - how refreshing from the 'it's the lady part of me that wants to wear a slight block heel' horseshit from Sam Smith.

Thanks @pullingmysocksup - that's working.

Yes I admired Eddie Izzard when he didn't view women's clothing as some extension of a 'feminine' gender soul.

I hope Harry Styles doesn't go down that route. We need more men who are comfortable in breaking sexist stereotypes instead of reinforcing them.

The label of feminine or masculine is not something that Harry embraces. He wears clothing that he's comfortable with.

I'm so pleased to read this. This approach is exactly what we need in terms of role models and it is what GC feminists have been trying to get across.

A young man who is secure in himself and comfortable experimenting with different styles and fashions and wearing what he likes. Nail polish and lacy, delicate outfits are not 'feminine' or something that only women can or should wear. Men can wear them too and look wonderful. Smile

Hmmm, it's very early Eddie Izzard (they're not women's clothes, they're my clothes), which was inspiring, but now he says he's trans (don't worry: he's happy with he or she pronouns, apparently).

Sorry, don't know how to make it clicky.
