—So what makes a man into a babygirl? It’s a fairly intangible thing, but it’s somewhere at the nexus of charming, adorable and stylish in a quirky, individual way. He’s the kind of guy that teens and 20-somethings adore, but so do their mothers (a significant tranche of [Harry] Styles’ fans are middle-aged women). In the context of acting roles, they’re less action heroes, more tortured souls.
—A lot (but not all) of the ‘babygirls’ have ‘feminine’ tendencies/behaviors but that’s not what makes them babygirl. It’s the vibe. The attitude. They exude ‘I wanna do it my own way’ stubbornness mixed with ‘royal treatment’ by others.
