Harry Styles. Where do I even begin? For the last five and a half years, I have committed my heart and soul to this man. And hear me out on this one! Even people who are not fans of One Direction, or pop music in general, have a great deal of respect for Harry. But why? I know I love him for probably an endless amount of reasons, but here are a few non-problematic things Mr. Styles is about.
Total Feminist
When I say feminism is for everyone, Harry Styles is the first male feminist that pops into my mind. Harry was raised by a wonderful, strong mother and is guided by a passionate older sister, so to him, feminism is just a way of life. Oftentimes, Harry is demonized by the media to be this “womanizer” or “man whore” which is totally not true. He is actually an advocate for Emma Watson’s “He for She” campaign and always gives mad credit to the women in his life. Harry also doesn’t believe in objectifying women, which is attractive in every way.

Talented Songwriter
I know, you are probably thinking “What Makes You Beautiful” is not exactly Grammy-worthy material. However, in the earlier albums, none of the members of the band were writing their music. But as time progressed, the music matured and became more personal. And this is because the boys were allowed to let their creative abilities contribute. Harry, himself, wrote several beautiful songs for the band as well as other musicians. Arianna Grande’s song “A Little Bit of Your Heart” was actually written by Harry! A personal favorite line from that song is, “I know I’m not your only, but at least I’m one. I heard a little love, is better than none.” Cue the ugly sobbing…now!
Genuine
How many pop stars do you know would grow their hair out for over two years and nonchalantly cut it, donate it to a charity for children who are ill, but not have a lot of press surrounding them? Exactly. Almost none. Except sweet angel Harry Styles. This is the same man who has stopped concerts in the hot summer to allow fans to cool down, get water, and be safe. The same man who fights for LGBT rights publicly. Harry Styles is the type of celebrity all the other stars should strive to be.
Good With Kids
This quality alone has kept me around for this long. Whenever there is a baby at some sort of event Harry is at, he ensures he finds the child and talks to them. He has worked hand-in-hand with Make a Wish and other charitable organizations to meet children, and even after he meets them, he keeps in contact with the families’ to see how the child is doing. But one of my all-time favorite stories happened when he went to Ghana, Africa on a relief trip. For a long time, Harry would wear a St. Christopher cross around his neck daily; almost like his trademark. During his time there, one young girl grew fond of him and spent almost the entire time with him. When Harry went to leave Ghana, he gave the young girl his cross necklace to protect her while he was not there. And I am ugly crying, again.
This is a list I could continue for years. I would take a bullet to protect this sweet baby. Protect this man with all of your hearts for he is so rare and sensitive!
