lad culture so awesome there's something incredible about the way ruben upon his return is designing his and niall's room to appear appropriately masculine and that involves putting up a poster of half naked guys. there's such a push and pull between homoeroticism and homophobia wherein certain personality traits make one "gay" but actual same sex lust/attraction are fine in the same way homoeroticism often serves as a thin veil for misogyny (ie that the masculine relationship, whatever its form, is most important culturally)

i have a personality flaw that always positions me on the side of characters who are hiding everything and refuse to accept help. like do NOT confide in people. confiding in people is the enemy. REAL winners lie and lie and continue lying until they ruin every single thing theyve got going for them & didnt fix a single goddamn thing. keep digging grandpa youre almost there
