I think Harry is a lot more open with his sexuality then Louis is. Even a lot of anti’s think Harry is gay, they just don’t believe in Larry and are completely convinced that Louis is straight or worse homophobic. Louis seems to be a lot more reserved and closed off regarding it. What are your opinions on this? Do you think Louis struggled more to come to terms with it then Harry did?
I think Louis is a very different sort of gay man than Harry is in terms of the way he expresses himself. He has never been sort of person to wear feather boas and wave rainbow flags and strike stereotypically “gay” poses. It’s so much easier to pick up on Harry’s queerness because these days he does do that kind of thing, but that’s who Harry is. They’re not the same person.
I think categorizing Louis as “reserved and closed off” about expressing his sexuality is actually extremely unfair. There is no one way to be gay. There is no one way to show comfort with it. I think, like Harry, he has become much more private about his life beyond his career.
I don’t think Louis has had any difficulty accepting his sexuality. I find it so bizarre that fans today even question it because when they were in the band, he was considered “the gay one“ by so many people. He was very clearly effeminate and very, very pretty (and the suspenders outfits didn’t help).
I think the combination of this new breed of fan who makes sexual comments about him every time he’s on stage is part of the shift. I think his decision to start wearing the sort of clothes he wears now (plus the drinking/smoking/talking about weed, etc.) gives many people the impression that he’s a “lad“ and therefore somehow can’t be gay.
Beyond all of this, I think it’s really important to remember how harshly it seems he was punished for so many years for looking/sounding/being “too gay”. I honestly can’t imagine going through so many years of being told everything about me was wrong and having the whole world commenting on everything about me, and coming out the other side without being at least a little reserved about expressing myself freely.
But this is the man you’re wondering about. Do you seriously think this is a guy who’s not at peace with who he is?

LOUIS NOT BEING HOMOPHOBIC
JUST LIKE YOU MUSIC VIDEO
THERE IS NO HETEROSEXUAL EXPLANATION FOR THIS
FLAMBOYANT LOUIS
You’ll have to scroll through this tag, but X FACTOR JUDGE LOUIS being super supportive of all the queer acts who auditioned
And honestly, do you really think someone who wasn’t comfortable with their sexuality would stage two fucking rainbow bears with so much LGBTQ+ history night after night?
I am NEVER getting over that not only did H help a guy come out by raising the pride flag and saying, you're gay my boy, but also:
Mateo had multi colored painted nails just like Harry's - how much Harry's journey must have meant to him, from scared kid afraid of putting polish on to owning and modeling his own polish and beauty line and proudly waving the rainbow flag constantly
Harry said, when this flag goes over the head you're officially GAY. Not out, GAY.
Look at Mitch's little laugh when he says that.

He dressed as a modern Freddie Mercury after doing the iconic Freddie pose the day before and honoring his call and response at Wembley
After the usual pride flag dancing and coming out, towards the end of his set -
H finished LOML, picked up ANOTHER pride flag, raised it, draped it over himself, KISSED it... and walked off stage for the break.
Harry has come out ten thousand times. Anyone ignoring that is willfully participating in closeting not just him - but every LGBTQ person by assuming people are straight.
Obviously this is just an iPhone conspiracy right?
Louis wore Aime Leon Dore to perform and to greet fans tonight, the 1 year anniversaryof FITF release. Though the brand is named after a version of 'love' plus the owner's father's name and part of his own, it DOES translate to something like Loved Gold Lion.
A year ago, on the night of the release, Harry held up his arm and pointed at/twisted his gold lion ring when he sang 'I hope you're missing me' line during Daylight. Credit Twitter
I feel so stupid but I don't get it? What is it about? 😂 😭
The question was originally about whether he was involved in the decisions and designs of his merch. And he made sure to make it clear that he's in fact the one making decisions and aware of everything.
Louis LOVES to communicate through cryptic messages, he loves coded clothing and symbolisms. And a lot of "coincidences" happen when it comes to that, whether is about something queer or larry or stunts or anything that leaves us room to interpret in a way that supports what we've been saying for ages. And that puts people saying larries are reading into everything in a very uncomfortable position, it really goes a narrative where fans trying to find the meaning of something and creating theories - which 99% come from larries - bothers him and "rubs him up in the wrong way".
It's been proven over and over how much he loves and is involved in that, starting with the bears to this day. He wants us to read into things. So, rainbows, doors/portals, checkered patterns, DNAs... it's a lot of stuff, here's a few of the ones it's been most widely discussed over the last few years:
