My policeman was so important to him

— Harry on My Policeman

this will forever be my favourite tlk cast photo

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
