Harry Styles is not queerbaiting, he's queercoding - a very necessary thread.
1. Describing his ideal "girl" - Since he was 17 and he was asked about potential love interests, Harry always used gender neutral pronouns even when interviewers specifically used the word "girl" ( they / someone)
" I think just someone who's got a nice sense of humor and obviously if you can hold a good conversation with him/ them "
" I'm looking for someone who....
2. While those are his answers about women, the way he reacts to being asked about men is completely different. He blushes, talks about their physical appearance, not just the personality.
" then were dating I guess. You're very handsome"
" I think you look great"
3. Harry + Pride flags. Now I know some people may think " waving a pride flag doesn't necessarily mean he's part of the community" but you can see harry is not just an ally.
He's not just an ally.
4. Harry basically outing himself. He has said thing which a straight man wouldn't ever say.
" Female. It's a good trait: Not that important"
" Female. It's a good trait: Not that important"
" Don't knock it till you try it"
5. Harry + music and lyrics
Harry wrote a song " Medicine" where he is literally screaming he's not straight. The lyrics " the boys and the girls are here i mess around with them" are self - explanatory.

Here's harry singing the sing live. You can clearly hear he is not saying them. Maybe not him, but definitely subtly trying to.
Harry changing the she to a very clear he
Harry started Fine Line era with the song Lights Out, which is about finding out who you are. The lyrics are obviously about finding your identity, being open and stepping into the light. The lyrics:
Wrote a song with " you were just her," and gave it to Ariana Grande. Performed it live several times.
12. " Do you have any crushes on girls" " No! Never!"
13. " I mean we're all a little bit gay, aren't we ?
Harry has been queercoding since even before he was a solo artist. He's been hinting he's part of the qyeer community through his music, tweets, actions, clothing etc. Harry Styles is not queerbaiting because harry IS queer.
I advice people who don't know him, to do some research before saying hurtful things like this. He is no queerbaiter.

I hope this reaches people who need to hear this all. I might missed some things but I think the point is clear!!
