A global sensation, Harry Styles, is the first man to make a solo debut on the cover of Vogue and he is not letting conservatives have peace of mind, literally. Living up to his name, Styles was wearing a ball gown for Vogue’s December 2020 issue which angered many conservatives. One even took the time to address the ‘disturbing’ part behind the dress he wore on Twitter.
There is no society that can survive without strong men. The East knows this. In the west, the steady feminization of our men at the same time that Marxism is being taught to our children is not a coincidence.
It is an outright attack.Bring back manly men. https://t.co/sY4IJF7VkK

Conservative provocateur Candace Owens shared her opinion regarding the issue but the tweet was met with much backlash instantly.
Styles’ fans and industry peers from all around the world came to his defense and they all expressed one thing in common, clothes aren’t a measurement of masculinity.
A fan responded to the controversial tweet, saying:

Lord of The Rings star Elijah Wood made his statement in a tweet:
i think you’ve missed the definition of what a man is. masculinity alone does not make a man

“In fact, it’s got nothing to do with it,” he added.
Styles shared his perspective on fashion in an interview for the Vogue cover story. The 26-year old singer-actor said, “When you take away ‘There’s clothes for men and there are clothes for women,’ once you remove any barriers, obviously you open up the arena in which you can play.
I’ll go to shops sometimes and I just find myself looking at the women’s clothing thinking they’re amazing.
It’s like anything—anytime you’re putting barriers up in your own life, you’re just limiting yourself.”
Styles’ mother, Anne Twist, talked about his keen interest in fashion during a November 17 interview – she stated that Styles used to play dress-up growing up and it’s probably because of her influence.
“Maybe I had something to do with it, ‘cause I was always a big fan of doing fancy dresses with Harry and his sister, Gemma, when they were smaller which Gemma hated, but Harry always embraced. But you know, who doesn’t love playing dress-up?” said the mother.
A big name like Harry Styles tends to trigger criticism in whatever he does but to have a controversy revolves around what he feels comfortable to wear is plain ignorant and shows the lack of respect one has towards the other.
Styles in a ball gown is proof that men of all sexuality can embrace their feminine side without losing track of their masculinity.
This is a good example to set for the younger fans who look up to talented people like him.
