Aha, I see - if you watch the commentary they explain how they wanted to move from the 'politicians at the podium' to the seedy underbelly of politicians at the strip club, but being TT they then do a 'power swap' and become the lapdancers themselves *g* There's a fascinating article from their first time around in a magazine talking about how they are men who have been packaged as 'women' (not sexually agressive but sexually open, being naked, often together, inviting gaze/touch) and I think they've always played with that.
His autobiography is very interesting *is unhelpful with the not!ordering thing* and very self-aware and really quite slashy as well (lovely descriptions of when they first ever reformed and gave a press conference Howard falling to the floor weeping afterwards and Jason hugging him...) but respectful of the privacy of the others too. If you ever watch their old concerts etc you can see that he's taking himself very seriously and is oblivious to how the others look when he talks about how great their manager is etc and around the split time when he was about to go solo he is not very likeable but what I love is how he went through that and learnt and grew *g* And yes, if you watch 'Look Back Don't Stare' you will see that they all feel looked after by him now - he's massively more secure in himself than any of the others and they rely on that *g*
I genuinely think they are. I think a lot of what was between them had to do with other issues they both had and they've both grown up a lot since the various events that hurt each other. God, it hits my soppy happy ending kink so very hard *g*
