Instead, he went to a more diverse school that he feels toughened him up.<\/p>\n<p>He told <i><a href=\"http:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/tv-and-radio\/2015\/mar\/01\/russell-tovey-looking-banished-interview\" target=\"_blank\">The Guardian<\/a>:<\/i><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&ldquo;I was so envious of everyone who went to Sylvia Young Theatre School. I wanted to go but my dad flat-out refused. He thought I&rsquo;d become some tapdancing freak without qualifications. And he was right in a way. I&rsquo;m glad I didn&rsquo;t go.<\/p>\n<p>I feel like I could have been really effeminate, if I hadn&rsquo;t gone to the school I went to. Where I felt like I had to toughen up. If I&rsquo;d have been able to relax, prance around, sing in the street, I might be a different person now. I thank my dad for that, for not allowing me to go down that path.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The context, it should be noted, is that Russell feels his high school experience made him a more versatile actor, meaning better at playing straight\/<a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/chaturbate.com\/in\/?tour=R2Xc&#38;campaign=hl4zp&#38;track=gfcsb\">gay<\/a> characters.<\/p>\n<p>But the sentiment comes uncomfortably close to echoing a pervasive attitude in the <a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/chaturbate.com\/in\/?tour=R2Xc&#38;campaign=hl4zp&#38;track=gfcsb\">gay<\/a> community &mdash; that femme is bad and masculine is good. You need look no further than Grindr profiles to see one negative expression of this idea: &ldquo;Masc4Masc,&rdquo; &ldquo;No Femmes,&rdquo; etc.<\/p>\n<p>Then there&rsquo;s the generalization of a performing arts school as a place where all people do is &ldquo;prance around, sing in the street.&rdquo; And given his tone, his father&rsquo;s &ldquo;tapdancing freak&rdquo; evokes code for &ldquo;tapdancing fag.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>All in all, it doesn&rsquo;t sound good no matter what he meant.<\/p>\n<p>It&rsquo;s fine for Russell (and everyone&nbsp;else) to be whoever it is they want to be, but when we start assigning values to identities it will always spell trouble.<\/p>\n<p>He goes on to say:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&ldquo;I get told, a lot, that I&rsquo;m kind of carving my own path. That there are not many actors who are out and are able to play straight, and <a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/chaturbate.com\/in\/?tour=R2Xc&#38;campaign=hl4zp&#38;track=gfcsb\">gay<\/a>, and everyone&rsquo;s OK with it.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>There aren&rsquo;t, but perhaps it&rsquo;s a sign more of the times and less of his father having instilled some external &ldquo;tough <a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/chaturbate.com\/in\/?tour=R2Xc&#38;campaign=hl4zp&#38;track=gfcsb\">guy<\/a>&rdquo; front in his younger self&nbsp;that allows Russell&nbsp;to navigate&nbsp;the entertainment industry as a versatile and talented performer.<\/p>\n<p>But regardless, it&rsquo;s the wrong message for LGBT youth, many of whom make up the audience of <i>Looking<\/i> and in turn look up to its stars as role models. And it&rsquo;s certainly the wrong message for parents of said youth, many of whom may not know what to make of their sons&rsquo; desire to &ldquo;prance around.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>We don&rsquo;t mean to say Tovey has committed any mortal sins here. He&rsquo;s an active and outspoken member of the <a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/chaturbate.com\/in\/?tour=R2Xc&#38;campaign=hl4zp&#38;track=gfcsb\">gay<\/a> community, and part of a show we think does a great job at trying to &ldquo;get it right&rdquo; when it comes to representing <a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/chaturbate.com\/in\/?tour=R2Xc&#38;campaign=hl4zp&#38;track=gfcsb\">gay<\/a> people.<\/p>\n<p>But there is a conversation to be had among us about how we qualify identity.
