That might have changed&hellip;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.
