Why Harry Styles Wearing A Dress TERRIFIED Conservatives
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 гру 2020
- Harry Styles' is one of music's most popular musicians. He's hot off a critically acclaimed album in "Fine Line", with songs like Watermelon Sugar, Golden, and Adore You topping the charts. He's from one of the biggest boy bands of all time, One Direction, and has blazed a trail for his solo career to flourish. And he's also become quite a popular ambassador among many fashion brands, the largest one being Gucci, for who he and Alessandro Michele have worked extensively together. And Harry's rise to fame only continued when American Vogue published their December 2020 cover, where Harry donned a lacey blue Gucci Gown, which sent the whole world into a tailspin. If it wasn't Harry's fans that were going crazy over the cover, it was conservative commentators like Candace Owens and Ben Shapiro, having a go at Harry over the fact that he was not conforming to the idea of masculinity within the rigid constructs created by Western society. The quote "Bring Back Manly Men" donned all sorts of responses and even got an Instagram caption mention by Harry himself. But the notion that Western Society should conform to these really rigid notions of what men and women should wear is stupid, as all over the world, that idea of what is men's and women's clothing has changed over time. From Ancient China, to the First Nation's of the Americas, to European high heels worn by Kings and Queens alike, and so much more, we must work to ungender or degender clothing, and colors while we're at it, because it's a dumb and old practice that really helps no one. So come along as we break down Harry's Vogue cover and if you're a channel member you can see us break down all the other Harry looks that showed up throughout the shoot! by clicking the link below :)

"The East knows this." Yeah ok let's just ignore that most K-pop male idols often wear make-up, a very 'feminine' accessory, but you do you Candace.
say it again for the k-pop stans in the back!!
ikr I'd love to see her react to East asian pretty boys:/ Like, I don't think we value physical strength associated with "masculinity" as much as western culture...?
I have no fucking clue why she brought in "the east" to this conversation. It really invalidates her whole point and showed just how wrong she is. She really played herself.
if that hilbilly is from USA then... everything from the ocean to the EAST is THE EAST... that means Europe, Africa, Asia and Australia... that means everything but America.
There literally used to be a show in Japan all about cross-dressing. I think it was called Cross Dressing Paradise but I could be wrong.
i love it when people use "oh it will hurt children" as a blanket statement to push gender norms when children are LITERALLY the most open and loving individuals on this planet
YESSSSS. IT'S ONLY TO COVER UP THEIR UGLY VIEWS
Love the point but STRONG disagree on children being loving.... those little gremlins are EVIL
PREACH
YES! Also, children literally do not care what people wear?? As if there wasn't anything more interesting in the world to them than clothing
@@kaiga9341 blame it on their parents not them
I hate the “being taught to our children” argument .. kids r watching paw patrol and playing with slime not reading vogue lmfao
There is literally no lie in this statement. 😂😂🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Right!? And often times than not kids are more open minded than these adults
I have 2 kids and approve of this comment. My kids wouldn't know what vogue was?;
To be clear, they would not give 2 shits about boys wearing dresses. My son loves pink and sparkles and trucks and camo, and dinos and sharks and Frozen... whatever!!
PERIODT. I don’t think everyone caught that, can you say it louder please?
Ben Shapiro just hasn't found a flattering silhouette yet
He’s 5’4 give him time 😔✊🏻
He should try a ball gown
@@whoisthisperson8454 judging by that one picture where he's with Jordan Peterson, 5'4" is generous
There isn't one for some folk dear.
I was joking that he's probably jealous but I think you may be right
“Oh no we can’t show kids Harry Styles in a dress, better take them to church to look at pictures of Jesus...in a dress”
lmaooo underrated comment
@🗿 who are you talking about? Harry?
@@celestetellez1615
I think so....just ignore him/her...😒
@@darcyliz9993 ok
@🗿 because of people like you the world is a fucked up place. TPWK, love
Y’all remember Ben Shapiro called a WAP a medical condition. It’s not Harry we should be worried for, it’s Bens poor wife.
Her poor coochies all torn up in the worst way possible
Her WAP be a DAP
@@daniboy4153 😭💀
@@daniboy4153 Bone dry
Abby saying "it is good for men to be good, strong, and capable" as if putting on a dress somehow makes you bad, weak, and incapable...yeah not sure how these things correlate
It’s like saying being more feminine is weak bad and incapable.
I can't even do an ironic joke about her because she's just too much of a joke herself
Harry's PRs in the weight room say otherwise.
Get you a man that can deadlift like three men AND rock a dress
Say that to the wrong person and you might end up on the business end of a claymore or a katana
Exactly. If you’re concerned about the decline of traditional, virtuous masculinity, promote strength, fitness, loyalty, hard work, and providing for your family. Harry Styles in a dress is not the hill to die on.
Mind you, all these people are fighting over pieces of fabric instead of actually discussing problems...
EXACTLY!!!
@BerryStein
I totally agree, like people think a bunch of fabric defines gender/sexuality.
that is ironically the point of a culture war to distract.
Thank you!!! Like why does a piece of fabric between your legs so fucking important?!?!
Like, isn't there a frickin pandemic going on?
“The East knows this” 👁👄👁
She sounded like she just finished Mulan 2020 and thought she knew all about the East
Lmao. It's the she think she knows the east for me. It'z the pretend to know how cloth works for me. 💞❤🌼🌺🌻🌸🏵⚘
Absolutely ! I literally spat out my coffee when she said that !!
Lmao this is so funny considering The pop industry in China and Korea is pretty androgynous. Kpop and Cpop boy groups specifically wear makeup. BTS I think wayyy before were seen wearing skirts.
This "controversy" was hilarious tbh, truly one for 2020 lmaooo
i had it on my 2020 bingo card
Honestly I don’t get it??? Who cares he’s doing what he wants and he looks bomb doing it??? Let people live Jesusssss lmao
@@threeisaparty_5944 Men wear skirts in Scotland and it has nothing to do with masculnity. The matter of gendering any piece of cloth is idiotic.
@@rishikapaul4740 Jesus literally wears a dress which is a man most of the ppl with issues abt this praise, smh the hypocrisy is unreal.
@@rishikapaul4740 in our region we do too
Bench Apibo is concerned that Harry's giving free waps worldwide wearing a dress while he stills struggles to arouse his wife.
BECH APIBO LMAOOOO IM CRYING
😳
You fucking killed him🤣🤣🤣
Im dying 😂
Flex tape can't fix that.
Personally, I think the blue color of the gown looks better with the background than the pink would have.
" but like Ben Shapiro, my interest in reading it, is small "
I cackled like an old witch.
And also when he showed that pic of Abby the Prude's husband. 😬
I'll tell you one thing: You can't say that Anna Wintour doesn't know how to run a magazine!
"First off, Candace, just say you know nothing about fashion and move on" Luke DID NOT come to play. It's the entire video, for me 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
All of this!!👌👌👌
Men in skirts: bad, disgrace, un-masculine
Men in kilts: great, amazing, very masculine
Skirts made for woman
Kilts also considered a kind of skirt is made for a man
literally harry styles looks better in a dress than i ever have-
sipping facts over here
I feel like I'm crazy but I think the dress is ugly af and would 100% be considered ugly if a woman or NB person was wearing it😬
Sameeeee
@@sofiapicasso1915 no, the dress is so ugly and Harry deserves better
@@sofiapicasso1915 it’s like Tim Burton gone wrong
Has Abby heard of like... kilts? Because "manly" men have been wearing "skirts" in the West for a loooooong time.
She totally forgot about the fact that many cultures have worn something that resembles a dress,and still to this day many traditional garments all around the world resemble dresses
Also before the invention of pants. Men would wear stockings and a tunic that would end at the knees.
Fun fact, kilts actually are not as old as a lot of people probably think. They only date back to about the sixteenth century. Which while still old isn't a looooong time ago.
Now if you really want to see men in skirt like garments then hop on down to Greece and Egypt. Where men wore the equivalent of a wrap skirt for a few hundred years. After all, Rome wasn't built in pants.
@@TehMomo_ wasn't it leggings?
I know he's a Gucci man, but not a fan of that cover dress. Like there are so many other better Gucci dresses.
this is a valid critic!!! everyone can criticize a man in an ugly dress, but it makes no sense to criticize a man for just wearing a dress!!
@@hautelemode THIS!!!!!!!
Thxs for the honesty I feel when I tell people the dress is okay.. they think I just dont want him to wear it.
@@hautelemode agreed!
Yeah i agree with you, i appreciate the idea of the cover but the dress isn't the most incredible and didn't fit him well, and the coat didn't go well together in my oppinion
FACTS FACTS FACTS !!! Only 22 and already tired of women being told how to be women and men being told how to be men ...
I'm 52 so add 30 years of this bs.
I love that Luke isn't shouting just so his words to fall on deaf ears, he's literally giving a history lesson! Bravo!
^^ This!!!! 👌👌
Have they ever *seen* a saudi man? A kilt? I’m so tired
Hahahahaha, I love this response!
Yes, even where I'm from, it is absolutely natural for men to wear a tied skirt. Trousers are modern, but skirts are what everyone wore from the beginning of 'clothing' lol... I also love kilts and other cultural dresses and skirts *sigh* they're so beautiful 😌😌
And chinese hanfu? And japanese yukata/kimono? And korean hanbok? The list goes on n on n on.
A kilt it’s a men’s garment and women don’t wear them.
A kilt its a man’s garment, woman don’t wear them.
The Korean hanbok, Japanese Kimino ,hanfu, all of those were different for man and woman.
The argument is that Harry’s style wore the dress representing femininity, not masculinity... good for him again, but let’s not pretend otherwise.
I don't even understand why fashion is separated in women's (dresses and skirts) and men's ... Just wear what u like so it really isn't a big deal that he wear a dress like come on ... It's 2020
agreed.
👏👏👏👏
Exactly !
I'm 13, a literal child, and I'm not "confused" in any way. The clothes are cute. He looks good. A dress doesn't make anybody "less strong" or "less of a man". Men can wear dresses and they'll look really good doing it.
@🗿 what?
@🗿 heard who speak harry ?!🤔
@avarose this dude coped and pasted the same comment in the other reply too ..... Just wants attention ...everybody knows harry is more pure than the morning water 💚
@🗿 okay I believe what I hear and what I see.... So tell me where you heard him say or be the kind of person you claim he is !?? Am really looking forward to your answer
@🗿 so him supporting BLM is whining ?!!.. Wow I didn't I was having a conversation with a racist, ignorant person ..you dont even have a proper answer !! Plus try wearing whatever you want without being afraid of judgment you will look great as much as him too ... I would say a lot more to you but is not worth it ....have a great night kid and as harry says TPWK 💚
Harry styles is too good. He’s ✨ golden ✨
i see what you did there
well played
I see that
My traditional tribal wear for men are skirts. This whole incident made me feel that they made comments without even knowing facts as my tribe is from the "EAST"! 😂
Galo tribe?
It's not just a feeling, it IS A FACT that they make comments without knowing everything.
In India if you go saree shopping, the salesperson, usually a man, drape sarees on themselves and model them to show how it looks when the saree is draped properly
Yeah
THIS
What does that have to do with men wearing female dresses? They are showing how their woman should wear it. It's actually bad ass to be able to tell them how to wear what they want them to wear. It's very macho. They take it off after showing
Im so proud of Harry honestly as someone who’s grown up with him and seen him become the man he is today it’s so amazing to see him not give a single flying fuck about what anyone has to say bout him after being this very shy self conscious 18 year old saying he wished he didn’t care about what people thought about him shit like what candace and all these pther people have said would’ve CRUSHED him back then and now this man literally has THOUSANDS pressed and is completely unbothered you literally love to see it
frrr he's so unbothered i'd love to have his mentality.
Harry ROCKED that look. It's something that is not seen very often on men, so on the rare occasion when a man steps out and pushes those boundaries, people can't handle it tsk tsk
Imagine if men told us we can’t wear pants because were women. That’s just as bad as telling men they can’t wear what they want because they’re men! Women get to wear anything they want so why can’t men also have that freedom?
@Nishita kunder 100 B that’s not all men tho. Some men enjoy expressing themselves through clothing choices
I actualy like the movement of making men women, When a society doesnt have men its much easier to control, and we can do whatever we want with their women without any men left to protect them
@@Blueeyesinthesky pants are designed for specific genders. So are dresses. The dress harry wore was designed for woman even if the designer says no you can see the feminine in the dress. Kilts look like a dress but is worn in a way to make the man look rather masculine. High socks, cool looking shirts and accessories with knife to boot it's pretty bad ass.
He looked freakin hot and sexy as hell. I actually think these outfits make him look even more masculine for some reason. He exudes confidence, and comfort in his own skin, not giving a damn about what others say. If that isn’t hot, I don’t know what it is.

@@franciscopereira5760 let's go!
“Much like Ben Shapiro my interest in reading [his tweets] is small” I’d like to report a murder
I love how well-researched this video is!
so happy!! i'd rather it be detailed then just me babbling on!!
Yes well done! I really enjoyed it ❤
Also check out Karolina Zebrowska.
And Mina Le. She also did a video covering the evolution of men's fashion.
@@hautelemode The only thing that i might argue about is the term dress in this context. The clothing of the Russian Orthodox church priests was mentioned. As someone who grew up in the Eastern Orthodox faith Macedonian not Russian there is a difference in how we call the clothing. It's not called a dress and it's not even associated with it. For better or for worse a dress is associated with female clothing not male. Even if the shape might be the similar there is still a difference between a "female" dress and a "male" dress and what Harry is wearing is a "female" dress. Even in India or the middle east man and women do not wear the same thing. As a gay man my self I am all for unisex clothing probably will reduce pollution and garbage in the world. As long as male and female is attributed to the clothing and clothing is created around that concept, in that since there will be divide over female and male clothing around the world. At the end of the day Harry can wear what he wants.
Omg the burns towards abby and ben shapiro are just golden 😂
It’s so funny how the most superficial things can freak people out to their core. I love that Harry knew he would garner this reaction & wanted people to begin questioning their nonsensical “triggers” - why they are even there & if they are in fact valid (which in this case...they are not). 👗 Go Harry Go! 🎉
AGREE!!!!
he knows what he's doing lol. and he knows we'll be there to support him 100,000%
@Megha Me neither. I, a cis woman, also only wear skirts and dresses to garner attention. Also, did you see the dress he was wearing? Any person of every gender is only wearing that style of dress on special occasions because dragging that, probably expensive, dress on a sticky Walmart floor is not the move.
(Said respectfully)
King, you dragged those clowns so hard 🤣 You are truly an icon
The one dislike is from Candice
I just recently started watching your channel, like last week-and I'm mad that YT hadn't recommended it sooner! Loved the breakdown of this and the dragging of em clowns 💁♀️
I smiled so much this whole video, fam!
omg natalie!!!
Welcome to the club. His channel is awesome.
omg natalie!
@@supppsyl saaame same!!!
I've been WAITING for this one, so happy it's out
Why is Candace saying “the east knows this” and in the next sentence comparing this to being “Marxist” wasn’t the east communist until 20 years ago??? I mean isn’t that what she opposes???
Riight
This commentary and research was so well done and I’m so glad you mentioned indigenous two spirit people!!
I love how women can wear men's suits and it's seen as empowering, but men wearing more feminine clothes causes a an uproar. like whaa- and Candice you cannot be wearing those suits then .
so true, her logic is ridiculous. i guess its because society views masculinity as "strong" while they view femininity as "weak." which is just so dumb but all of this just uncovers all of the underlying misogyny within them.
Why does it still matter what people wear! Like literally why do people care so much lol
only conservaties *eye roll*
Umm what people are wearing is kinda the whole purpose of magazine
They were trying to distract themselves from Trump losing the election
@@TehMomo_ PREACH
@@TehMomo_ HAHAHA
the way Luke DRAGGED the outdated commenters is just, inmaculate
also, i loved this break-down of the cover, it was just not enough
also its so funny to see the conservatives say "we want manly men who can fix things and do manly shit" meanwhile their husband looks like a piece of gammon and harry is probably 1000x stronger than they will ever be. that man is fit!! his personal trainers in the past have commented on how he can lift a looooot
frrrr, they think just because he is wearing something traditionally feminine, he's all of a sudden "WeAk." how can you determine someones strength based on a piece of fabric?
right! like abby's husband doesn't look masculine enough for me and im not making a video about it because i dont care. who takes their time to make a video about someone just to say "i dont find you attractive" like okay who asked you
I just love how people think that things like ruffles, colors, silhouettes, etc. are actually gendered.
There is no scientific rule that pink is feminine and that dresses belong to women. There is no scientific rule that men in dresses make them unmanly.
We only associate it as feminine because we are used to seeing women in dresses not men. That’s why trousers were considered too manly for women in the early 1900s but now are considered genderneutral, because we frickin got used to seeing them on both genders. It’ll be the same with men and dresses. In a hundred years people will look back and think how close minded we were for thinking man in dresses are unmanly, just like women in pants a hundred years back.
It’s actually laughable how these conservative people think like that. Knowing all this these people seem like little children to me who don’t understand the world yet and need a bit attention.
@222ckc exactly
Abby Shapiro: “I am not attracted to Harry Styles in a dress”
*insert picture of her husband*
...oh hunny... you do you ig?
"I'm not attracted to Harry Styles in a dress"
Did we ask
Why does it matter? It's a magazine not a picture specially made for her
Your dragging of the clowns literally gives me life, this video is EVERYTHING
If you wrote a book about the insight of fashion- i would read it!
i was starting to think you weren't going to talk about it
*gasps in homosexual* lmaooo
😂😂😂
Me everyday be like:
"Slow and steady wins the race...in my life at least" same hun...same
You absolutely slayed this video in every single way
And can we please talk about Scotsmen in kilts? Sexy BEYOND sexy.
let's hope that masculinity is not just defined by what one wears, what a sad definition of masculinity that would be
Thank you so much for the fashion history of high heels. 💕 Too many people have been kept ignorant.
I love your dress selection. 💕
Easily the best response I’ve seen! You do a phenomenal job at explaining the nuanced nature of culture and cultural clothing. An EDUCATED ICON
"The kurta is a little bit sus" hahaha
Thank you for being the most amazing outlet for learning abt high fashion!!
Great commentary; thank you! Love the historical (and current) references.
This is one of the most powerful videos you've ever made. I LOVE your history lessons point of view and positivity.
this video is so so so good! i love how you brought up different cultures, homophobia, the red scare, and colonization. as always, quality content :)
I actualy like the movement of making men women, When a society doesnt have men its much easier to control, and we can do whatever we want with their women without any men left to protect them
Always love when you talk about history, would love more history vids in the future. Amazing video as always
Thank you so much for making this. The world needed a concise and thoroughly researched video to send to their prejudice relatives.
Respect!!...thank you for the brilliant insight . ❤
As a seamstress,you really broke down EVERY thought I had about this. Basically, clothes are fluid.
how does a man wearing a dress make him less strong
You are going to get me through this Pandemic I need you. We all need you. You are lifting our spirits during this time. Please please keep doing the videos. We need you
I loved this one! Thank you.
I mean, as a woman, I love having the ability to explore my feminine and masculine side but I really do feel sad that men aren't allowed to explore feminity without being blasted off by society.
Being a cis woman, I have to say. This cleaver and educated breakdown is so good that I literally almost cried 😭 I can't even explain. Also let's take a moment to appreciate a fashion channel that's not vapid, a channel that discusses art and ties in history. HauteLeMode is a rare gem on UA-cam.
Cis is a slur.
Just say "woman"
Wonderful One Direction pun at the end, and I love how well researched this was.
thank you for the in-depth analysis

" one of the most popular boybands of all time " Ya I know
Let's just talk about facts. He looked damn good!
Love this video!!! You hit all the points that are essential to this story, and adding historical references really added to your arguement
Would love to see you make a video about how to build the perfect wardrobe, i.e what pieces you need, what brands are the best for certain pieces. Everything you wear is so chic! 🥰♥️
Bravo Luke for a detailed and nuanced explanation of the history behind “masculinity” and fashion!
I love how you dragged through the mud all of these clowns talking out of their asses YOU DID BEAUTIFULLY
I like the historical research you've done here to strengthen your arguments. Really interesting and educational stuff.
Damn, your best video yet. Your passion and empathy and ability to articulate yourself are what this world needs more of. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
*i've never clicked on a video faster in my entire life*
I was waitinggggg
I just became a member because I love these analysis content!
This absolutely was a controversial moment for 2020's (still a bit fragile) masculinity!
I liveeee for this, sharing this everywhere immediaaateeeelyyyyy
"reject modernity, embrace tradition.
Harry wears a dress
"Wait not like that!"
I’m proud of Harry✨
Thank you for making this point so thoughtfully. I would have just started screaming 2 minutes in about how nothing they said makes any sense. You have compiled an intelligent response and delivered it well. Thank you!
Thanks for sharing!
Brava👏
Also, when I first heard the rumblings of "conservatives" naysaying Harry wearing a dress, my first thought was "which time?".
I found your channel via Hannah, and am excited to stick around!
A Tatianna “Thank You!” to you for making this video.
Choices!
This SLAPS! THANK YOU
i’ve been waiting for this PLEASEWW
Imagine what a peaceful and wonderful world this could be, if everybody just lived their life's the way they want to live it and dont care what other's say.
It will be a world full of candy and rainbows.
I wanna live in that world, god pls take me there
Harry is awesome I will always support him in everything he does. I think it’s really cool of him to just throw out the “rule books” and societal constructs of what is typically expected of men to have to be like. He is having fun with his art and exploring and open to trying new things. You can’t put art in a box or force it into a certain mold in that people will be “comfortable with”. Then it wouldn’t be art and it would just be lame and sad. 😊✌🏻🧚🏻♂️
Thanks for this!
Hey luke, you're incredibly articulate and fluent with your words. I appreciate your manners, as well, saying something critical and remaining polite is an exceptional talent. This is one of your best videos!
they way I wrote my whole research essay about how Shapiro's and Owens's argument is bull
The way Abby just,, centers her life around pleasing men and hates women who don’t do it too is genuinely scary
Thank you for making this video, Luke!
Love all the receipts in this video 💟
