Charlie Carver came out after a gay man slapped him for being too effeminate
Charlie Carver, star of Teen Wolf and The Boys in the Band, says he decided to come out publicly after a gay man slapped him for being too effeminate.
Speaking to Variety, Carver, 32, says he was at an Emmys party when a gay colleague slapped him and told him to get his mannerisms under control so as to not appear openly gay at industry events.
He said the unnamed noun, who he had worked with previously, admonished him repeatedly for being effeminate.
I was told that I needed to ‘get it under control’ around people in the business, Carver said.
Later that night, Carver said he approached the man and asked him to explain what he meant, at which point the male struck him.
It wasn’t playful but intentional, pointed and meant to be instructive. A slap,” he told Variety. “I told him that if he ever touched me again, I would identify him.”
The interaction led Carver, who rose to fame on Desperate Housewives alongside twin brother Max, to decide to publicly come out.
