Harry Styles Says Gender 'Not That Important' in Love Interest

[Loukas]

One Direction’s Harry Styles hinted he may not be totally straight in a recent interview with On Demand Entertainment.

The singer and his bandmate Liam Payne were asked by ODE’s Lucy Jones what their favorite traits were in a girl and when Payne responded first by saying, “Female. That’s an important trait,” Styles shook his head and interjected, “Not that important.”

Instead he listed “sense of humor” and being “nice to people” as traits he admired.

Though the pop star’s comment is far from a confirmation he’s something other than a Kinsey 0, it does highlight his positive attitude about the spectrum of sexuality and gender.

Styles has been a strong ally of the LGBT community over the past couple of years and even donned a Michael Sam jersey during One Direction’s concert at the Edward Jones Dome in St. Louis in August in a show of support for the out NFL player when his status on the final St. Louis Rams roster was still pending.

People on twitter need to understand the meaning of the word gender, loads of people are now calling him gay :joker: The spectrum of the word gender extends way beyond gay and straight!

[Vanessa]

Mmmm, sounds like he's bisexual to me. :think:

[Loukas]

[Tom4784]

He was probably joking.

[Vanessa]

A lot of people are bi. Nothing wrong with that. :tongue:

[Daniel.]

He is gay.

[Vanessa]

He is gay.

Not 100% i don't think. :laugh:

[Daniel.]

Aha hunny

[Crimson Dynamo]

[Livia]

Harry trying to double his fanbase.

[Black Dagger]

Is it me who just thinks he looks really grubby with his new hair? Looks like he's in dire need of a good wash.

[Daniel.]

He's always in gay bars, tweeting lyrics, to coming out songs, wearing "live is equal" shirts, A Fan brought a "We will stick with you no matter what" Sign with The Rainbow Sign to a oncert and he puts the peace sign up to them. He Instagarammed a photo of 2 guys standing next to each other and just put the caption as "Strong...and now this.

this stuff may be true but regardless he could be doing all of this to keep his growing gay audience.

[Crimson Dynamo]

I thought it was the wee blonde one who was the only gay member?

I doubt he's the only one who likes a nibble of sausage. :fan:

I don't think he would...he would have a gay fanbase, regardless.

He's not gay..

Maybe he's just supportive of gay rights? He is like, best friends with Nick Grimshaw.. Just because people support gays and show it publically, doesn't mean that they are gay or bi or secretly noshing off their band mates.

But the interview.. I'm not too sure about, it seems like a generic 'look at me, look how amazing i am, choosing personality over everything else, i am so worldly' thing imo.

Well he's certainly not like that...but the big tell telling sign is him acknowledging the Gay Pride sign and giving peace to it. I certainly don't think he's "noshing off his band mates" as they are all straight.

I kind of thought everyone knew he was gay and couldn't come out because of his Record Label

lol at that little comment causing such a storm,why does it bother people so much? he is what he is ,whatever that is ,but I don't see that small comment is proof that he is bi sexual,I saw that interview,looked as though he wasn't entirely serious,lol,people are such funny things and take things so lierally.Good luck to Harry whatever his sexual preference.

I agree, it doesn't really matter what sexuality they are. I doubt it will affect them. They're way too big now.

[JoshBB]

"having to do" - they didn't.. harry chose to.

So he acknowledges a gay pride sign and that means he's not straight?.. lord, Obama must be a massive closet case.

[Daniel.]

No, but the fact it says "HARRY we will support YOU no matter what" not just a Gay Pride Sign.

[Tom4784]

None of which has any bearing on his sexuality.

[Liam-]

No, but the fact it says "HARRY we will support YOU no matter what" not just a Gay Pride Sign.

So it was a loving sign from his fans, which just so happened to be decorated with the gay pride flag.. it could have been gays holding it as a symbol of his gay fan base, not Harry's sexuality..

[Braden]

I think he was joking.

He was probably looking for something humorous to say in reply to Liam's comment.

[Kazanne]

I agree, it doesn't really matter what sexuality they are. I doubt it will affect them. They're way too big now.

I seriously think Harry is a bit of a joker and he smiled when he said this,he knew people would be buzzing,lol,as you say it really wont affect them,they are massive and most people really don't care what sexual orientation they are.

[Ninastar]

3 out of the 5 of them are so gay

maybe even 4 of them

[Kazanne]

I think he was joking.

He was probably looking for something humorous to say in reply to Liam's comment.

Exactly,he does always look a bit uncomfortable with interviews.

[JoshBB]

I honestly think if Harry was gay, he would either say "I am gay", or openly enter a relationship with a guy. It's a bit rude and intrusive to speculate.

[Liam-]

In my opinion, people who suspect people of being gay or bisexual, purely based off of said person being open about their support of gay rights, are just as narrow minded as homophobes.. if a guy, famous or not, openly supports gay rights and associates with gay people, it does not make them a closet case or a gay in denial.. I've known many guys who have been incredibly supportive of gays and lesbians and every other sexuality, but are straight as an arrow, the thought process of 'Oh, he supports gays, he must be a closet bender' is to me, preposterous and simply closed minded and should be eradicated.

i dont think you realise how hollywood works, lol

[Crimson Dynamo]

has anyone said

"why does it matter what his sexuality is "

yet?

[Marsh.]

Harry trying to double his fanbase.

This.

[Livia]

Most people I know, from my grandparents down, and I'm almost sure, everyone on this forum, do not give a stuff about other people's sexuality beyond being supportive of their right to be who they are. Discussing it doesn't make anyone narrow minded nor a homophobe because Harry himself, or at least his publicist, has made this an issue and here we all are watching get the attention it was planned to get.

f\/cking homophobic bitch

he need to get his hair cut and stand up a bit straighter

[Livia]

Oi! Jew-nosed homophobe bitch... if you don't mind.

[LemonJam]

haha top banter such joke.

[Ithinkiloveyoutoo]

Who cares if he's gay the blonde bish was creaming for some Harry dick. So embarrassing.

I like the long hair :amazed:

[erinp5]

The interviewer was awkward and cringey.

[Marsh.]

It amuses me that they try to dress and act like "rock stars" when they're just a cheesy teen pop group. :laugh:

[Princess]

I wouldn't say it 'bothers' people, the exact opposite in fact. The vast majority of One Direction fans I know think Harry and Louis Tomlinson are in a secret relationship and this all just adds fuel to that fire, especially with so much of the media picking up on it.

And as for 'has anyone said it doesn't matter what his sexuality is', the fans have countless times. Also media wise, Sugarspace.

[Marsh.]

Harry and Louis are in a secret what? Relationship? :laugh2:

[Heaven = Winner]

Good for him

How utterly right you are here. I recognise myself as doing all the things you mention - have done for years, and I'm not Gay. (I just help them out when they're busy LOL ) Seriously, you are bang on right Liam.

[Vanessa]

Harry and Louis are in a secret what? Relationship? :laugh2:

Even his fans think so. :laugh:

Some people just believe anything first off,instead of looking at all the scenarios.

[coffee]

Even if he is joking a lot of one direction fans will think he isn't and because Harry says so they will agree. I think it's good.

[Glenn.]

Can Zayn just come out please. Not here for the dirty haired hobo looking one.

[Marsh.]

Isn't Zayn the dirty haired smack head looking one? :fan:

[Princess]

This isn't 'first off', they have tonnes of 'evidence' to back up their theory. Google 'Larry Stylinson', it's a huge thing.

[Braden]

I've never understood why teen girls would want them to be together?

Is it because the majority of them don't want Harry/Louis to be exclusive to other females?

[Princess]

I've never understood why teen girls would want them to be together?

Is it because the majority of them don't want Harry/Louis to be exclusive to other females?

No it's because people think they're a good couple. The people who love them do believe they're together, they just believe in love and fate and all the rest. I mean I ship Caroline Flack and Olly Murs, because I think they'd be perfect together. That's all it is, people love love, boybands have gone beyond 'I want to be with him' now.

[Liam-]

'Larry Stylinson' Oh dear god.

[Braden]

Tbf I think they would make a good couple, but I honestly don't think either are gay. :laugh:

It must get a bit annoying for them. I've heard that their publicist told them that they couldn't sit next to each during interviews for a period of time because it would 'insinuate' things.

[Liam-]

This!

Imagine how awkward it must make them feel, not being able to look at each other in public without the internet and all the crazed fangirls assuming they're shafting each other.. i can't even imagine what that would do to a friendship.

[Daniel.]

Louis is not gay.

The Larry stuff is cringe

[Liam-]

In all fairness, if any of them were gay it would be Louis :laugh:

[Daniel.]

He has Elenor :hehe:

[Liam-]

Have you not seen Harry's list of girlfriends? :laugh:

[Daniel.]

I was being sarcastic...but yes :tongue:

[Vicky.]

I heard Nial and Louis :suspect:

[Liam-]

I was being sarcastic...but yes :tongue:

Oh :laugh:

I honestly don't think any of them are gay or bi tbh.

[Princess]

I heard Nial and Louis :suspect:

Niall?? Really? Nope! Though they all have their shippers I'd presume.

[Daniel.]

I have been told by -reliable sources- that Harry is...but I'm not sure..

[Liam-]

I have been told by -reliable sources- that Harry is...but I'm not sure..

Reliable sources being who exactly? :suspect:

[Princess]

I never really believed in the Larry thing much but the more time you spend on Tumblr the more believable it seems. They have SO much evidence.

[Daniel.]

People in London on the -celebrity scene-

[Liam-]

So gossips then? :laugh:

[Liam-]

I never really believed in the Larry thing much but the more time you spend on Tumblr the more believable it seems. They have SO much evidence.

I've looked at some of it and i wouldn't exactly call it 'evidence' it's just all mere speculation and people picking holes in things to make it make sense to their story

[Braden]

Someone from my school had 'sex' with Louis Tomlinson when they met in Spain (she was female) Obviously I wasn't there to confirm this. :joker:

[Daniel.]

Yeah Liam hun, but like from people I trust so I'm more inclined to believe it

[Liam-]

Yeah Liam hun, but like from people I trust so I'm more inclined to believe it

Oh lord :joker:

[Braden]

Daniel are you Perez Hilton irl? :o

[Daniel.]

What?

[Daniel.]

Daniel are you Perez Hilton irl? :o

I am disgusted to be compared to him

[Liam-]

What?

The fact that you believe gossips who are on the 'celebrity scene' in London.. that normally means journalists, or people who go hunting for 'stories' to sell.

[Daniel.]

No, when I say "people I trust" I'm talking my friends

[Daniel.]

:laugh:

[Liam-]

Oh, so they slept with Harry or they know people who has friends that slept with him?..

[Daniel.]

Oh, so they slept with Harry or they know people who has friends that slept with him?..

Option 2

[Liam-]

Thought so :joker:

[Daniel.]

My friend know's someone who has slept with him. Basically.

And what's the point in lying about that?

[Liam-]

To make yourself sound cool or interesting.. that's the main reason people lie about things to make themselves look good .

[Daniel.]

Unless your an attention seeker or a compulsive liar...which, what are the chances? :laugh:

[Braden]

Did they say if he was good or not?

...I'm asking for a friend.

[Daniel.]

:laugh: When she told me I was like what is this bitch's Facebook but I was too embarrassed to send him an email asking if he had Harry's willy.

[Daniel.]

Maybe it's not true, I just got told this and am telling you guys...don't hold me to it :laugh:

[Liam-]

Unless your an attention seeker or a compulsive liar...which, what are the chances? :laugh:

Higher chances than some dude pulling a notoriously straight, millionaire band member who spends most of their time in America :laugh:

[Braden]

It's the exact same thing in regards to this person who slept with Louis.

There were loads of photos to suggest they met, but obviously they're the only two people who know whether they did it or not. :laugh: even then it doesn't confirm whether he's straight or not.

[Liam-]

Unless i see proof of Harry shafting a guy or he admits to it himself.. then it's all rumours and holds no substance whatsoever :laugh:

[Daniel.]

I would presume them all straight, but I got told this then this interview..so I looked it up and loads of stuff came up and I thought well maybe it's true.

The best way to sped a Friday night is always to discuss whether celebrities are gay on a Big Brother Forum.

[Liam-]

I mean, me personally, if i hooked up with a super hot, famous 'straight' guy, I'd at least get a bit of evidence like, just for a keepsake more than anything :laugh:

[Daniel.]

Kiss N Tell?

[Glenn.]

Isn't Zayn the dirty haired smack head looking one? :fan:

Not here for you being racist

[Liam-]

Kiss N Tell?

Ew no, I'm no Rebecca Loos hun :laugh:

[Daniel.]

Well I'm sure if you did you would get your ticket into Celebrity Big Brother :hehe:

[Braden]

Well I'm sure if you did you would get your ticket into Celebrity Big Brother :hehe:

I probably would tbh.

Imagine the fee you would get. :joker:

[Liam-]

Well I'm sure if you did you would get your ticket into Celebrity Big Brother :hehe:

That's true.. here for creating a sneaky video for the Daily Fail :fan:

[Marsh.]

[Braden]

The more I look into this, the more I think it's genuine.

Especially in regards to Harry being bi/gay/pan. But I suppose we will never know until we hear him say it.

[Loukas]

I'm still unconvinced, unless he comes out and says it himself then it will remain a rumour in my eyes!

[Liam-]

Bless him, he's just a free spirit isn't he? Even though I think he's jar having a laugh, good on him if he is starting to one out

[Daniel.]

If he is trolling us all I will not be impressed

[Liam-]

He probably is like.. The meltdown the Directioner universe has had the past week or two is hysterical, he's probably having a good ol laugh at it all :laugh:
