i would’ve agreed with this if it wasn’t that david dawson is a gay man. harry hasn’t confirmed his sexuality and neither has louis tomlinson(but he’s persistent that he isn’t gay when this ship is brought up)
louis tomlinson gets annoyed when people say he’s gay - because, well, he isn’t. harry doesn’t label his sexuality but david is an openly gay man. which is why harry and louis’s situation is no where near the message of the film. and it is probably more relatable for david rather than harry. and well. it is literally a ship. people just speculate they had feelings for each other.
so it makes more sense to me that david finds this film more important because he is gay and struggled with it while growing up. so trying to twist the message of the film to fit harry and louis(people who are merely being shipped) doesn’t make sense and doesn’t justify cropping david dawson out when he’s the one choosing to spread this message for his own community - which makes me think it’s probably, actually, a little homophobic because he is one of the only gay actors in the film. about gay men. who weren’t allowed to live their life as gay men.
so, in general, i still think it’s disrespectful to crop a gay actor out of a film about gay men and the struggle to live as who you are.
i feel so bad for actors that work with other actors who happen to be shipped heavily with someone else bc of the way the first actor is having their face edited out of pics and replaced with the person the second actor is shipped with is so fucking annoying.
yes this is aimed at anyone who edits out actors who harry styles has acted with bc why are you editing louis’s face onto david dawson’s?? in a film with such a strong and powerful message?? like omg let queer actors and media LIVE and feed your fucking ship with real material and not disrespecting the other actor
British cis guy here. Just to be clear, the UK transphobes haven't won, because I didn't wake up transphobic this morning and nor did any of my friends.
We're still with you. We'll figure this out. Hang in there.

my take on dorian gray. hi

We need to talk about tumblr's systematic fatphobia.
Posts of fat people are being marked as "sexual content" even more frequently than they used to, but now we have this fun little addition as brought to my attention by a friend;
That's right. Not just blatant kink-shaming, but now, if you make posts about or with fat people, you can now be flagged as "promoting disordered eating"! Multiple completely innocent posts of fat people literally just existing in their own bodies have already been flagged this way.
Raise hell about it. Reblog and share fat content more than ever. Don't let this shitty website tell you that your bodies are "wrong" or that you aren't allowed to exist publicly.
Tumblr staff, if you care about eating disorders (you fucking don't), stop promoting this sense of shame and fear and disgust towards the idea of weight gain. Stop shaming and censoring people for posting about their own bodies and experiences. Fatphobia kills. Fatphobia causes disordered eating. Fatphobia is the disease you should be worried about.
This has also been disproportionately affecting fat trans people, because of course it has.
Don't stop talking about it. Don't let this bullshit ceo silence you.
[ID: Three images of the Sigmund Freud statue at Clark University with queer and immigrant activist information plastered all over it. A trans and queer flag are draped over its shoulders, with a list of violent prejudiced hate crimes extending from its book to the floor. On its chest, various news articles describing forced deportations are taped onto it, with the words “Am I Next?” painted atop them in red. Below its feet, a poster with the phrase “How many lives will HATE kill” is positioned. Next to it is a portrait of a trans person with top surgery scars, and various articles taped beneath them. End ID.]
today, this is how clark students decorated the statue in the center of campus. if this message isn’t heard, what will it take for them to listen?
Shout out to anyone involved in putting this together! A strong message that sadly becomes more and more relevant every day.
i wish my partner was here rn. long distance relationships aren’t for the weak.
