Harry Styles Says He'd Rather Not Label His Sexuality, Thank You Very Much

“I don’t feel like it’s something I’ve ever felt like I have to explain about myself.”

I mean, I think we can all pretty much concur with this girl, right? This is the ONLY proper response to meeting Harry Styles IRL.

ANYWAY. In a new interview with UK paper The Sun Styles spoke openly about his feelings on music, drugs, and sexuality.

When asked if he ever strictly identified with one sexual orientation or another, he said, “No, I’ve never felt the need to really. No.”

“I don’t feel like it’s something I’ve ever felt like I have to explain about myself," he continued.

Instead, Styles cited the sexually fluid Miley Cyrus as an example of someone whose take on sexual politics he really admires.

“Being in a creative field, it’s important to be ­progressive. People doing stuff like [Miley] is great," he told The Sun. “It’s weird for me — everyone should just be who they want to be. It’s tough to justify somebody having to answer to someone else about stuff like that.”

This isn't the only time Harry's been super mellow/cool/down for whatever about his sexuality. In 2014, he joked about sleeping with guys in a Sun interview, saying, "don't knock it til you try it."

Same.

Anyway, here's to you, Harry, for always keeping it real.
