I Don't Know Why Nobody Told You

A boxing stance in that footwear. So Paul.

Just look at those girly sandals Paul’s wearing.

How had I missed this for so long?

a touch can mean so much...

John and Paul, Hey Jude recording season; 30th July, 1968.

once again i’m back on my bullshit with paul’s very obvious type

John 😭

That's my favorite...

THEY WERE MEAN TO HIM

This was THE moment of Get Back for me.

Add something if I’d like, tumblr? Add fucking what? I am unable to process any thoughts.

I wanna eat him

the idea of Jim being like “thank god my teenager knocked up his girlfriend because that means he’s not having gay sex with John Lennon”

I knowwwww! The implications of that! No one in the fifties was excited and supportive of teen pregnancy. Most parents, especially of Jim's ilk, would be devastated and furious. You know? There goes the illustrious career you were pushing your son into, supposedly the main reason you didn't like him spending so much time with John Lennon and dedicating too much to a band that should've just been a fun thing on the side. But no, Jim's not even disappointed, he's over here like "the whole family is coming over to celebrate your love! look at this adorable pram i found! you two can move in here together and we'll all be one big happy family!"

I really have to wonder if Paul clued in to that. Like was he just like "yeah my dad loves babies and he loves Dot, of course he's excited." Or did it hit him then that Jim was suspicious of John for more reasons than he'd been forthcoming about? And if that's the case, did it change the way Paul himself looked at his relationship with John, or was he already aware by that point of the sexual aspect of their relationship?

“Paul and I made a deal when we were 15. There was never a legal deal between us, just a deal we made when we decided to write together that we put both our names on it, no matter what." —​ John
