Harry Styles, SNL and queerbaiting in an era of queer exhaustion
Harry Styles’ viral SNL clip sure has the internet riled up. But maybe it's good to question at whose expense we're all laughing?
As a bisexual woman, I'm keenly aware of how distressing it can be to be a) out and b) told to prove it. So when the internet gets its knickers in a twist about queerbaiting, I usually just scroll on by and let out a long, laboured exhale.
So when I tuned in to watch Harry Styles on Saturday Night Live ahead of the release of his fourth studio album, Kiss All The Time. Disco Occasionally., I was surprised to find myself wrinkling my nose.
