“I see strength in sensitivity. To be able to express yourself in a light not typically viewed favorably by society or even the majority of your own friends and family, that is something harder to do than to deny yourself to feel emotions. To those fans who are trying to mislead you, don’t blame them. They were sheltered and were raised to believe that attractive men are stoic men. Women are repressed, but so are men. We all have to succumb to traditionalist values at some point.”
“It honestly took me a long time to get to the point where I am now-- years, because for the longest time it was drilled into my head that I needed to be a mans man. Stack the fire wood, fix shit around the house, and yet my parents put me into ballet when I could barely walk because my older sister refused. I certainly don’t blame my fans for what they think, I never do. Not everyone has the same belief system as me and I don’t expect them too, I just expect some level of respect... ya know? I don’t think that’s too much to ask. I don’t really plan on submitting myself to traditional values any time soon-- at least not most of them. I’m not too keen on the idea of stereotyping. Everyone should be allowed to be their own person. Unless you’re a serial killer, you cannot be a serial killer.”
