The actor, probably best known for playing the villain Shinzon in Star Trek:Nemesis, and who can now be seen in Inception, was recently interviewed for a magazine and was refreshingly blunt when discussing his previous sex life when the topic came to messing around with other guys.
“As a boy? Of course I have. I’m an actor for f*ck’s sake. I’ve played with everything and everyone. I love the form and the physicality[of men], but now that I’m in my thirties, it doesn’t do it for me. I’m done experimenting but there’s plenty of stuff in a relationship with another man, especially gay men, that I need in my life. A lot of gay men get my thing for shoes. I have definite feminine qualities and a lot of gay men are incredibly masculine. A lot of people say I seem masculine, but I don’t feel it. I feel intrinsically feminine. I’d love to be one of the boys but I always felt a bit on the outside. Maybe my masculine qualities come from overcompensating because I’m not one of the boys.”
Tom doesn’t think he’s that masculine? He looks like a polished Neanderthal (I think I’m in love). It should be noted that Tom has a child with an ex-girlfriend and is engaged to be married to actress Charlotte Riley. Can you imagine a North American star on the verge of leading man status being this candid? I can’t.
I look forward to the day when a celebrity can say they had a few same sex experiences without fear of any kind of fall out and the statement doesn’t cause such a splash.
